EXPLANATION:

Give;

We are told of a circle with a central angle measure of 90 degrees. Also the length of the arc formed by the radii is 25 mm.

Required;

We are required to calculate the radius of the circle.

Step-by-step solution;

To solve this problem, we first take note of the formula for calculating the length of an arc, and this is;

[tex]\begin{gathered} LENGTH\text{ }OF\text{ }AN\text{ }ARC: \\ \\ LOA=\frac{\theta}{360}\times2\pi r \end{gathered}[/tex]

The variables here are;

[tex]LOA=25,\theta=90\degree,\pi=3.14,r=?[/tex]

We can now substitute the known values and we'll have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 25=\frac{90}{360}\times2\times3.14\times r \\ \\ 25=\frac{1\times2\times3.14\times r}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now we can cross multiply;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{25\times4}{2\times3.14}=r \\ \\ 15.923566879=r \end{gathered}[/tex]

We can round this to the nearest hundredth and we now have;

ANSWER:

[tex]Radius=15.92mm[/tex]
