This lesson covers the concept of arc length and its relation to central angles in geometry. It explains how to calculate arc length using the radius and angle in radians, and provides example problems to illustrate these calculations. The lesson also introduces linear and angular velocity, demonstrating how to compute these using real-world examples. Additionally, it covers the area of a sector and how to calculate distances between cities using arc length. The lesson concludes with a free response question to reinforce the concepts learned.

What is the formula for calculating arc length?

• Arc length = radius / angle in radians

• Arc length = radius - angle in radians

• Arc length = radius + angle in radians

• Arc length = radius x angle in radians
