Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "20 minutes = 120 degrees on the clock
\n" ); document.write( "Radius = 3 metres
\n" ); document.write( "Angle/360 = Length of Arc/π x diameter
\n" ); document.write( "120/360 = Length of Arc/π x 6
\n" ); document.write( "Length of Arc = (120 x π x 6)/360
\n" ); document.write( "Length of Arc = 6.28 metres. (2 decimal places)
\n" ); document.write( "This is the distance the hand moved in 20 minutes.
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
