Answer:
Two arcs on a circle having central angle as [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]97^{\circ}[/tex] are not congruent.
Solution:
Need to find whether two arcs having central angle as [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]97^{\circ}[/tex] of same circle are congruent or not.
For congruency of two arcs, radius and length of the arc must be same.
Since two arcs in discussion is on same circle, so radius is equal
Let’s assume radius of circle = r
[tex]\text { Length of the arc }=2 \pi r \times\left(\frac{\theta}{360}\right)[/tex]
where θ is central angle.
So length of the arc when central angle [tex]=60^{\circ}=2 \pi r \times \frac{60}{360}=0.3333 \pi r[/tex]
Length of the arc when central angle = [tex]97^{\circ}=2 \pi r \times \frac{97}{360}=0.5388 \pi r[/tex]
So clearly length of the two arc are not equal. Hence two arcs having central angle as [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]97^{\circ}[/tex] are not congruent.
