Answer:

Radius ≈ 11.364 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Convert the central angle from degrees to radians:

Radians = \(\frac{\pi}{180} \times 20°\)

Radians = \(\frac{\pi}{9}\)

Step 2: Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for the radius:

Arc Length = Radius \(\times\) Central Angle

40 cm = Radius \(\times\) \(\frac{\pi}{9}\)

To solve for the radius:

Radius = \(\frac{40 \, \text{cm}}{\frac{\pi}{9}}\)

Radius = \(40 \, \text{cm} \times \frac{9}{\pi}\)

Therefore, the radius is approximately 11.364 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

the circumference (= arc length of 360°) of a circle is

2×pi×r = 2×pi×r × 360/360

now, the arc length for 20° is then

2×pi×r × 20/360 = pi×r × 40/360 = pi×r / 9

we know the result (40 cm).

so,

pi×r / 9 = 40

pi×r = 360

r = 360/pi = 114.591559... cm
