13.3 – Radian Measures
Radian MeasureFind the circumference of a circle with the given radius or diameter. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
1. radius 4 in. 2. diameter 70 m
3. radius 8 mi 4. diameter 3.4 ft
5. radius 5 mm 6. diameter 6.3 cm
Radian Measure1. C = 2 r = 2 (4 in.) 25.1 in.
2. C = d = (70 m) 219.9 m
3. C = 2 r = 2 (8 mi) 50.3 mi
4. C = d = (3.4 ft) 10.7 ft
5. C = 2 r = 2 (5 mm) 31.4 mm
6. C = d = (6.3 cm) 19.8 cm
Solutions
Vocabulary and Definitions
• A central angle of a circle is an angle with a vertex at the center of the circle.
• An intercepted arc is the arc that is “captured” by the central angle.
Vocabulary and Definitions
• When the central angle intercepts an arc that has the same length as a radius of the circle, the measure of the angle is defined as a radian.

Like degrees, radians measure the amount of rotation from the initial side to the terminal side of the angle.

The “Magic” ProportionThis proportion can be used to convert to and from Degrees to Radians.
Degrees°180° =
r radians radians
Example: Find the radian measure of angle of 45°.
Write a proportion.45°180° =
r radians radians
An angle of 45° measures about 0.785 radians.
Write the cross-products.45 • = 180 • r
Divide each side by 45.r = 45 •180
= 0.785 Simplify.4

Radian MeasureAnother satellite completes one orbit around Earth every 4 h. The
satellite orbits 2900 km above Earth’s surface. How far does the
satellite travel in 1 h?
Since one complete rotation (orbit) takes 4 h, the satellite completes of a rotation in 1 h.

Step 1: Find the radius of the satellite’s orbit.
r = 6400 + 2900 Add the radius of Earth and the distance
from Earth’s surface to the satellite.
= 9300
Radian Measure(continued)
The satellite travels about 14,608 km in 1 h.
Step 2: Find the measure of the central angle the satellite travels through in 1 h.
