To find the arc length \( L \) of a circle given the radius \( r \) and the central angle \( \theta \) in radians, you can use the formula:
\[
L = r \cdot \theta
\]
In this case, the radius \( r \) is 10 feet and the central angle \( \theta \) is \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) radians.
Now, plug the values into the formula:
\[
L = 10 \cdot \frac{3\pi}{4} = \frac{30\pi}{4} = \frac{15\pi}{2}
\]
Therefore, the arc length is:
\[
\boxed{\frac{15\pi}{2}}
\]
So the correct response is \( \frac{15\pi}{2} \) (15π/2).
\[
L = r \cdot \theta
\]
In this case, the radius \( r \) is 10 feet and the central angle \( \theta \) is \( \frac{3\pi}{4} \) radians.
Now, plug the values into the formula:
\[
L = 10 \cdot \frac{3\pi}{4} = \frac{30\pi}{4} = \frac{15\pi}{2}
\]
Therefore, the arc length is:
\[
\boxed{\frac{15\pi}{2}}
\]
So the correct response is \( \frac{15\pi}{2} \) (15π/2).
