Question

What is the area of sector GPHthe area of the sector GPH is __ square yards. in exact terms of pi

Answer 1

The Solution:

Given:

We are required to find the area of the sector GPH.

The formula for the area of sector GPH is:

`\begin{gathered} A=(\theta)/(360)*\pi r^2 \\ \\ \text{ In this case,} \\ \theta=40^o \\ r=radius=15yards \\ A=area=? \end{gathered}`

Substitute these values in the formula.

`A=(40)/(360)*\pi*15^2=(15^2\pi)/(9)=25\pi\text{ }yards^2`

Therefore, the correct answer is:
