The area of a sector S follows the equation:

$S=(1)/(2)r^2\theta$

Where θ is the angle and r the radius.

In this case, we have:

• r = 4.28ft

,

• θ = 2.79

We write:

$\begin{gathered} S=(1)/(2)(4.28)^2\cdot2.79 \\ S\approx25.554168 \end{gathered}$

Then, the answer, rounded up to two decimal places is
