Given:

• Radius of the circle, r = 8 in

,

• Central angle = 165 degrees

Let's find the area of the sector of the circle.

To find the area of the sector, apply the formula:


A=(\theta)/(360)*\pi r^2

Where:

r is the radius = 8 in

θ = 165 degrees

Thus, we have:


\begin{gathered} A=(165)/(360)*\pi *8^2 \\ \\ A=0.4583*\pi *64 \\ \\ A=92.2\text{ in}^2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the area of the sector is 92.2 in².
