In the diagram O is the center of the circle. Reflex angle XOY = 210° and the length of the minor arc is 5.5m. Find, correct to the nearest meter, the length of the major arc.
8m
9m
10m
13m
Correct answer is A
Given, Length of minor arc = 5.5m
Angle subtended by minor arc = 360° - 210° = 150°
\(\therefore 5.5 = \frac{150}{360} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r \)
\(\frac{55r}{21} = 5.5\)
\(r = \frac{5.5 \times 21}{55}\)
r = 2.1m
Length of major arc = \(\frac{210}{360} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 2.1\)
= \(7.7m \approxeq 8m\) (to the nearest metre)
