one revolution, namely one go-around the circle, is an angle of 2π radians, in radians unit of course.

now, we know the radius is 4 and 1/2 long, so, what is the "arc" made by the 2π radians angle, with that radius?

[tex]\bf \textit{arc's length}\\\\ s=r\theta \qquad \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \theta =angle~in\\ \qquad radians\\ ------\\ \theta =2\pi \\ r=4\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9}{2} \end{cases}\implies s=\cfrac{9}{2}\cdot 2\pi \implies s=9\pi [/tex]
