Moneyman! Getting confused. The circumference of the circle is 8pi and how come the arc can be of length 34pi. Am I missing something or anything else?
Correct me If I am wrong


Regards,

Amitava

Thats a good idea moneyman, well solving such questions which do not come a credible source can sometimes hurt ur fundamentals badly.

I remember reading this question somewhere....I believe it is 3/4 pi and not 34 pi.
