1 Radian Measure
Learning Goals:
Overall Expectations
Specific Expectations
● B1.1 recognize the radian as an alternative unit to the degree for angle
measurement, define the radian measure of an angle as the length of
the arc that subtends this angle at the centre of a unit circle, and
develop and apply the relationship between radian and degree measure
Instructions:
In the next lesson, students will learn about radian measure and angles on the cartesian planes.
a) Determine the measure of the central angle that is formed by an arc length of 5 cm in
a circle with a radius of 2.5 cm. Express the measure in both radians and degrees,
correct to one decimal place.
b) Determine the arc length of the circle in part a) if the central angle is 200°.
6. Determine the arc length of a circle with a radius of 8 cm if
a) 90°
b) 270°
c) -180°

11. A wind turbine has three blades, each measuring 3 m from centre to tip. At a
particular time, the turbine is rotating four times a minute.
Marking Scheme (5 marks)
3 marks for presenting correct and complete step-by-step solution.
1 mark for solving for the angular velocity of the turbine.
1 mark for solving for the distance travelled in 5 mins.
12. A wheel is rotating at an angular velocity of 1.2 π radians/s, while a point on the
circumference of the wheel travels 9.6 π m in 10 s.
