Question

If an arc makes a central angle of 98 degrees is it a major or minor arc? Explain??

Answer 1

If the Central Angle is 98 degrees, the arc is also 98 degrees. Since the arc is less than 180 degrees, it is a

minor arc.

Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

To determine whether an arc is a major or minor arc, you need to compare the measure of the central angle formed by the arc to 180 degrees, which represents a semicircle.

In this case, the central angle is 98 degrees. If the central angle is greater than 180 degrees, the arc is a major arc. If the central angle is less than 180 degrees, the arc is a minor arc.

Since 98 degrees is less than 180 degrees, the arc is a minor arc.
