document.write( "Question 473379: How can I find a sector's perimeter when giving the radius and the angle?
\n" );
document.write( "radius - 4 units and angle 270 \r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "I was thinking of adding the diameter and 3/4 ( 8 pi) \r
\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "since 270 is 3/4's of 360 and i would like to get only the length of the arc so 3/4 of the whole perimeter would give me that. then i would just add the diameter (8) to obtain the whole perimeter.
\n" );
document.write( " will that work? \n" );
