The rule of the length of an arc is
[tex]L=\frac{x}{360}\times2\pi\text{ r}[/tex]Where L is the length of the arc
x is the central angle subtended by the arc
r is the radius of the circle
∵ BC = r
∵ BC = 16 ft
∴ r = 16
∵ < ABC is a central angle subtended by the arc AC
∴ ∵ < ABC = 51 degrees
∴ x = 51
→ Substitute the values of x and r in the rule above to find The length of arc AC
[tex]\begin{gathered} AC=\frac{51}{360}\times2\times3.14\times16 \\ AC=14.23466667 \end{gathered}[/tex]→ Round it to 2 decimal places
∴ AC arc = 14.23 ft
