In circle O, the m angle DOG = 92° and the length of arc DG is 16.
Calculate the length of the radius. Use 3.14 for π.
How would you find this?

------
Convert the 92 degrees to radians by multiplying by pi/180
----
Use the formula: "arc length = (theta)*radius" to find the radius.

total circumference
r =~ 9.964

Using radians is recommended, as the other tutor did.
It simplifies things, tho they're scary at first.
