What is the area of the sector of a circle whose radius is 35 cm and whose arc subtends an angle of 72° at the centre of the circle?
(π = )
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 770 cm2.
Given that, radius of sector = 35 cm
Angle subtended by arc, = 72°
Area of sector =
According to the given question,
Area of sector =
⇒
⇒ 22 × 35 = 770
Hence the area of the given sector is 770 cm2.
