Answer:

π/4 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length formula is s = rФ, where Ф is the central angle (in radians).

Here, r = 8 inches and s = arc length = 2π inches.  We need to find the central angle, Ф.  The formula given above is s = rФ, or, equivalently,

Ф = s/r.

Here, the central angle is Ф = s/r = 2π/8, or π/4 radians.
