Answer:
Option (1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the length of arc YZ = 12 units
m∠YXZ = one third of the full circle = [tex]\frac{360}{3}[/tex] = 120°
From the formula of arc length,
Length of arc = [tex]\frac{\theta}{360}(2\pi r)[/tex]
Where θ = Central angle subtended by the arc
r = radius of the circle
By substituting these values in the formula,
12 = [tex]\frac{120}{360}(2\pi r)[/tex]
12 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}\pi r[/tex]
[tex]18=\pi r[/tex]
r = [tex]\frac{18}{\pi }[/tex]
r = 5.73
r ≈ 6 units
Therefore, Option (1) will be the answer.
