Q3. Rehman is making a wheel using spokes. He wants to fix equal spokes in such a way that the angles between any pair of consecutive spokes are equal. Help him by completing the following table.
Calculate the angle between a pair of consecutive spokes on a wheel with 15 spokes.
Number of spokes |
4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 12 |
Angle between a pair of consecutive |
.... | .... | .... |
The angle between a pair of consecutive spokes on a wheel with 15 spokes is calculated as:
If we know the constant value then we can easily calculate the angle for 15 spokes:
Hence angle made is 24 degrees.
