Answer:

B. A region inside a circle bounded by a central angle and its intercepted arc

Explanation:

The sector of a circle having symbol ⌔ is the part of any circular object enclosed by two of its radii and an arc.

In the given figure AOB is a sector of the circle.

The smaller enclosed area is called the minor sector and the larger is called the major sector.

So,

A region inside a circle bounded by a central angle and its intercepted arc is known as a sector
