If the arc length is 15π cm and the central angle is 225°, what is the radius of the circle?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 12 cm

The governing relation for arc length is s = rθ, where θ must be expressed in radians. Convert the central angle first: 225° = 225π/180 = 5π/4 radians. Substituting the given arc length s = 15π cm gives 15π = r(5π/4). Solving, r = 15π × 4/(5π) = 12 cm. Thus option B is correct. The π factors cancel, leaving a radius in centimetres, as required. A common error is to put 225 directly into s = rθ, even though that formula requires radians, or to use the wrong conversion factor. Those errors explain why the other numerical options are not valid.
