Answer:

Correct option is B.

Explanation:

Given the radius of circle and the angle in sector we have to find the area of shaded region i.e minor sector.

Radius=r=16 in.

$Angle=\theta=110^(\circ)$

$Area of sector=}(\theta)/(360)*\pi r^2$

=(110)/(360)*(22)/(7)*(16)^2

=(11)/(36)* (22)/(7)* 16* 16=245.841=246(approx.)

∴ Area of sector is
246in^2

Correct option is B.
