Q5(i):
In a circle of radius 21 cm, an arc subtends an angle of 60° at the centre. Find: (i) the length of the arc (Unless stated otherwise, use $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)
Solution :
Given:
- Radius of the circle ($r$) = $21 \text{ cm}$
- Angle subtended by the arc at the centre ($\theta$) = $60^\circ$
- Value of $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$
To Find:
- The length of the arc ($l$).
Step 1: Stating the Formula
The length of an arc ($l$) of a circle that subtends an angle $\theta$ at the centre is given by the formula:
$l = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times 2\pi r$
[Where $\theta$ is the central angle in degrees, and $r$ is the radius of the circle.]
Step 2: Substituting the Given Values
Substitute $\theta = 60^\circ$, $r = 21 \text{ cm}$, and $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ into the formula:
$l = \frac{60^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 21$
Step 3: Simplifying the Expression
First, simplify the fraction representing the portion of the circumference:
$\frac{60}{360} = \frac{1}{6}$
Now, substitute this back into the equation:
$l = \frac{1}{6} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 21$
Step 4: Performing Arithmetic Calculations
Calculate the product of the constants:
$l = \frac{1}{6} \times 44 \times \frac{21}{7}$
[Since $2 \times 22 = 44$]
$l = \frac{1}{6} \times 44 \times 3$
[Since $21 \div 7 = 3$]
$l = \frac{132}{6}$
[Since $44 \times 3 = 132$]
$l = 22 \text{ cm}$
Final Answer: The length of the arc is 22 cm.

I am a teacher of Mathematics and Physics. I have been teaching since my college days. After completing my college I ran a coaching institute in my home town Nainital. During that time I got selected in Income Tax department through Staff Selection Commission. As teaching has always been my passion so I continued teaching students online. Currently, I give tuitions to CBSE/ICSE students of Class IX & X on one-on-one and batch bases. I prepare students for competitive Exams like SSC CGL, Banks, Railways etc. Since Mathematics and Science of IX & X standard play a significant role in cracking competitive exams. Every student no matter from what stream has to face that competition in future. Therefore, I prepare and polish student in a way which help them a lot in a future of competitive environment. Apart from this I also take classes for Vedic Maths and Fast calculating tricks.
