This video tutorial explains how to calculate the arc length of a circle. It begins with an introduction to arcs and their properties, followed by two examples demonstrating the calculation of arc lengths using different radii and central angles. The video also introduces an alternative method using proportions to find arc lengths and circumferences. Key concepts include the relationship between central angles and arcs, and the formula for circumference.

What is an arc in the context of a circle?

• A line connecting two points on the circle's circumference.

• A portion of the circle's circumference.

• The diameter of the circle.

• The center point of the circle.

How do you calculate the arc length of a circle?

• Divide the diameter by the central angle.

• Multiply the radius by the central angle.

• Divide the central angle by 360 and multiply by the circle's circumference.

• Multiply the diameter by Pi (π).

What is the relationship between the central angle and the arc it intercepts?

• They are equal in degrees.

• They are inversely proportional.

• The central angle is half the arc's degree.

• The arc's degree is double the central angle.
