Demystifying - Finding the angle of a sector

Drills

Running the arc and sector formulas backwards to recover the angle or radius from a stated length or area.

Author note — to cover

Rearrange the arc and sector formulas to recover the angle from a stated arc length or area, or the radius, as G18's angles explicitly allows, checking answers against 360. Requires confident rearrangement; the forward calculations are the two sibling pages. Both tiers. (G18)
