Question

Find the area of the sector and also find the central angle formed by the sector whose radius is 21 cm and length of arc is 66 cm.

  1. Area = 693 square cm; Angle = 180 degrees    
  2. Area = 705 square cm; Angle = 185 degrees    
  3. Area = 540 square cm; Angle = 164 degrees    
  4. Area = 800 square cm; Angle = 210 degrees    

hintHint:

we have to remember this two formula below given
area of sector = fraction numerator r a d i u s space cross times space a r c space l e n g t h over denominator 2 end fraction equals fraction numerator l r over denominator 2 end fraction

The correct answer is: Area = 693 square cm; Angle = 180 degrees


    ( option 1) is the correct answer
    Area of the sector equals fraction numerator I r over denominator 2 end fraction
    Substitute r=21 and I=66.
    equals fraction numerator 66 cross times 21 over denominator 2 end fraction
    equals 693 text end text c m to the power of 2 end exponent
    Using the area of the sector 693 text end text c m to the power of 2 end exponent, find the central angle theta.
    Area of the sector equals 693 text end text c m to the power of 2 end exponent
    fraction numerator theta over denominator 360 to the power of ring operator end exponent end fraction cross times pi r to the power of 2 end exponent equals 693
    Substitute r equals 21 and pi almost equal to fraction numerator 22 over denominator 7 end fraction
    left parenthesis fraction numerator theta over denominator 360 to the power of ring operator end exponent end fraction right parenthesis cross times left parenthesis fraction numerator 22 over denominator 7 end fraction right parenthesis cross times 21 to the power of 2 end exponent equals 693
    open parentheses fraction numerator theta over denominator 60 to the power of ring operator end exponent end fraction close parentheses cross times 231 equals 693
    theta equals 693 cross times open parentheses fraction numerator 60 to the power of ring operator end exponent over denominator 231 end fraction close parentheses
    theta equals 180 to the power of ring operator end exponent
