Q.A horse is tied to a post by a rope. If the horse moves along a circular path, always keeping the rope tight and describes 88 meter when it traces the angle of $72°$ at the centre, then the length of the rope is
A) 70 m. B) 55 m. C) 40 m. D) 35 m.

For a sector of a circle of radius $r$ whose central angle is $\theta$ radians, the length $S$ of the enclosed arc is directly proportional to $\theta$ (as a fraction of the full circumference $2\pi r$ corresponding to the full angle $2\pi$):

A degree measure must first be converted to radian ($\theta^{c}=\theta°\times\frac{\pi}{180}$) before this formula can be used. The same formula models any physical situation shaped like an arc swept at a fixed radius -- a pendulum bob tracing its swing, an animal on a tether walking a circular path, or a point on a rotating wheel or clock hand -- with the "radius" being the pendulum length, rope length or hand length as appropriate.
