A nautical mile is the unit of length used in sea and air navigation. A nautical mile is equal to 6,174 feet. What percent of a statute mile, (5,360
feet) is a nautical mile? (Round to the nearest hundredth.)

86.82%

Step-by-step explanation:

A nautical mile = 6,174 feet.

Statute mile =5,360 feet

The percentage of a statute mile to a nautical mile is calculated as:

5360/6174 × 100

= 0.8681567865 × 100

= 86.81567865%

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 86.82%

Therefore, the percent of a statute mile that is a nautical mile rounded to the nearest hundredth is 86.82%

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
