(a)
The arc mAB.
(a)
Answer to Problem 6CYU
Minor arc.
The measure of arc mAB is 79.2.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given
Calculation:
As, arc AB is the shortest arc connecting end-points A and B, hence, it is the minor arc.
The measure of the minor arc is related to its corresponding central
Hence,
The measure of arc mAB is 79.2.
(b)
The arc mBC.
(b)
Answer to Problem 6CYU
Minor arc.
The measure of arc mBC is 28.8.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given circle is:
Calculation:
As, arc BC is the shortest arc connecting end-points A and B, hence, it is the minor arc.
The measure of the minor arc is related to its corresponding central angle.
Hence,
The measure of arc mBC is 28.8.
(c)
The type of arc that the category Great Food represents.
(c)
Answer to Problem 6CYU
Major arc.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given circle is:
Calculation:
As, the arc that the category Great Food represents is the longest arc connecting the end-points C and D, hence it is the major arc.
