Answer: 75

Explanation:

If the measure of TRS is 120, that is 1/3 the total of 360. Meaning the area of the shaded part is 1/3 the area of the full circle. If the area of the shaded part is 25, that means 25 is 1/3 the full area. the equation for that can be (25 = 1/3x) with x being the full area of the circle.

To solve just multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/3, which is 3.

25 x 3 = 75, which is your answer.

Answer:

Area of circle R = 75π un² or ≈235.5 un²

Explanation:

The problem says that m∠TRS = 120º. The total number of degrees in a circle is 360º. 120º is a third of 360º. Therefore, we can prove that the shaded sector is a third of the circle.

The problem then says that the area of the shaded sector is 25π and we have to calculate the area of the entire circle. Since we already know that the shaded sector is a third of the circle, we can simply multiply 25π by 3 in order to calculate the area of t he entire circle.

25π × 3 = 75π.

Area of circle R = 75π un² or ≈235.5 un²
