Arc length from radians

To find the length of an arc (of a sector), we can just calculate:

Where:

  • is the radius of the sector(‘s circle)
  • is the angle of the sector

The full equation would be:

where:

  • is the length of the arc
  • is the radius of the circle
  • is the angle of the sector
