Correct Option: B
θ = 30 x 2(∠at center twice ∠at θ)
∴ θ = 60o
Length of arc = \(\frac{\theta}{360}\times 2\pi r\\ =\frac{60}{360}\times 2 \times \frac{22}{7}\times \frac{21}{1}\\ =22cm\)
∴ θ = 60o
Length of arc = \(\frac{\theta}{360}\times 2\pi r\\ =\frac{60}{360}\times 2 \times \frac{22}{7}\times \frac{21}{1}\\ =22cm\)
