the area of a circle is 42 pi M squared. what is the area of a 60° sector of this circle
Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:7π M squaredStep-by-step explanation:Since a whole circle is 360°, and we need to find 60° of this circle, we are basically wanting to find [tex]\frac{60}{360}=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]th of the circle.Area is given as 42π M squared, so 1/6th of that is [tex]\frac{1}{6}*42\pi\\=7\pi[/tex]THus, the area is 7π M squared
