Question 538284
Circumference of a circle (C) is {{{C=pi*d}}} where d is the diameter, or 2 times the radius.<P>
For this circle diameter is 2*9=18 and circumference is {{{C=18*pi}}}<P>
Arc length is in the same ratio to the circumference of the circle as the sector angle is to 360 degrees.<P>
In this case that means<P>
{{{30/360 = x/(18*pi)}}} where x is the arc length.<P>
Cross multiply.<P>
{{{360x=540*pi}}}<P>
Divide both sides by 360.<P>
{{{x=540*pi/360 = (3/2)*pi}}}<P>
That's the exact answer.  Depending on what is used for pi, there are different approximations.  Use 22/7.<P>
{{{x=(3/2)*(22/7) = 66/14 = 33/7=4.714}}}
