Given:

Radius of a circle = 2.1 units

Arc length = 21.2 units

To find:

The central angle in radians to the nearest 10th.

Solution:

We know that the intercepted arc length is

[tex]s=r\theta[/tex]

Where, s is the arc length, r is the radius and [tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle in radians.

Putting the given values, we get

[tex]21.2=2.1\theta[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{21.2}{2.1}=\theta[/tex]

[tex]10.095238=\theta[/tex]

[tex]\theta\approx 10.1[/tex]

Therefore, the angle in radians is 10.1.
