An arc subtends an angle of 30o at the centre of a circle radius 12cm. Calculate the length of the arc.
A
6\(\pi\)cm
B
2\(\pi\)cm
C
3\(\pi\)cm
D
9\(\pi\)cm
correct option: b
Length or arc = \(\frac{\theta}{360}\) x 2\(\pi\)r
= \(\frac{30}{360}\) x 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 12
= \(\frac{1}{12}\) x 2 x \(\pi\) x 2 = 2\(\pi\)cm
= \(\frac{30}{360}\) x 2 x \(\frac{22}{7}\) x 12
= \(\frac{1}{12}\) x 2 x \(\pi\) x 2 = 2\(\pi\)cm
