Mrs Lawson plants roses in 2/9 of her circular flower garden. What is the angle measure of the section that includes roses?

Respuesta :

Answer: 80 degrees

A whole circle has 360 degrees, which can be represented as:

[tex]2\pi=360\º=\frac{9}{9}=1circle[/tex]

If we want to find the angle measure of the section that includes roses (2/9 of a circle) we can multiply the 360 degrees that represents the whole circle by the fraction of the circle that is with roses:

[tex]360\º(\frac{2}{9})=80\º[/tex]

Hence, the angle measure of the section that includes roses is 80 degress
