An arc of a circle of length 22 cm subtends an angle of 3x° at the center of the circle. Find the value of x if the diameter of the circle is 14 cm

  • A.
    60o
  • B.
    120o
  • C.
    180o
  • D.
    30o
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

( ARChspace{1mm}length = (frac{theta}{360})times 2pi r\22=frac{3x}{360}times left(2 times(frac{22}{7})times(frac{7}{1})right)\3x = 180\x = frac{180}{3}\x = 60^{circ})
