    B 378 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1134 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 567 cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Arc AB = Diameter of coin = 3.3× 2 = 6.6 cm θ = 20 = (20/60)θ = (1/3)θ θ in radian = ((1/3) x (22/7)/540)c= ((22/7)/540)c θ = arc/radius = (22/7)/540 = 6.6/r r = (6.6 x 540)/22× 7 = 1134 cm.
