Answer:

[tex]\frac{q}{360}[/tex] × π10 = 7

Explanation:

The formula to find arc length is [tex]\frac{x}{360}[/tex] × [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Simply plug in radius and arc length to get your equation.

Answer:

Central angle = 80.21°

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length in circle is the product of radius and central angle made by the arc in radians.

That is

              l = rθ

Here given the values r = 5 ft and l = 7 ft

Substituting

             7 = 5 x θ

             θ = 1.4 radians

             [tex]\theta =1.4\times \frac{180}{\pi }=80.21^0[/tex]

Central angle = 80.21°
