To find the arc length of a circle, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Arc Length} = r \cdot \theta
\]
where \( r \) is the radius and \( \theta \) is the central angle in radians.
In this case, the radius \( r \) is 10 feet, and the central angle \( \theta \) is \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) radians.
Now, substitute the values into the formula:
\[
\text{Arc Length} = 10 \cdot \frac{3\pi}{4}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
\text{Arc Length} = \frac{30\pi}{4} = \frac{15\pi}{2}
\]
So, the arc length is:
\[
\frac{15\pi}{2}
\]
