We can find the area of a sector of a circle using the following equation:


A=(N)/(360)(\pi\cdot r^2)

where N is the angle in degrees and r is the radius. In this case, we have the following:


\begin{gathered} N=70 \\ r=10 \end{gathered}

using the formula, we get:


\begin{gathered} A=(70)/(360)(3.14\cdot(10)^2)=(70)/(360)(314)=61.1 \\ \Rightarrow A=61.1m^2 \end{gathered}

therefore, the area of the sector formed by angle NMP is 61.1m^2
