Sinc the radius of the circle is 4 feet, the area =
\pi
r^(2). The area would equal
16 \pi. Then,
(360)/(45) would equal 8, and
(16 \pi )/(8) would equal
2 \pi

If u see circle make 360° as a whole
So 45 ° is 1/8th of the entire angle

If u find whole area of a circle= pi×r^2
r=4 ft
A= 16π
So divide it by 8
A= 2π feet^2
