In the unit circle, an arc 4.1 units long subtends a central angle of how many radians? Of how many degrees, to the nearest degree?
------
arc length = (theta)r where theta is measured in radians.
-------------------
In a unit circle r = 1.
=======
4.1 = (theta)*1
---
theta = 4.1 radians
---
theta = 4.1(180/pi) = 234.91 degrees
---------------------------
