Problem 41

Suppose that you have two sticks and a piece of wire, each of length $1 \mathrm{ft}$, fastened at the ends to form an equilateral triangle; see Figure A. If side $\overline{B C}$ is bent out to form an arc of a circle with center $A,$ then the angle at $A$ will decrease from $60^{\circ}$ to something less. See Figure $\mathrm{B}$. What is the measure of this new angle at $A$ in both radians and degrees?
