Understanding arc length in u10l3 notes provides essential knowledge for calculating partial circumferences of circles. This guide covers the arc length formula, step-by-step examples, and practical applications.
- Arc length formula: l = (x/360°) * C, where x is the central angle in degrees and C is the circumference
- Examples demonstrate how to calculate arc lengths for various circle sizes and central angles
- Applications include real-world scenarios like pendulum swings and roundabout travel distances
- Practice problems reinforce understanding of arc length calculations in different contexts
