Find the area (in cm²) of the sector of a circle of radius 21 cm with a central angle of 60°. [Use π = 22/7 ]

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 231

Sector area = π × r2 × θ ÷ 360

= 22/7 × 21 × 21 × 60 ÷ 360

= 22/7 × 21 × 21 × 1/6

= 22 × 3 × 21 × 1/6

= 22 × 63 ÷ 6

= 22 × 10.5

= 231
