Answer:

33 pi square units

Explanation:

First find the area of the entire circle. It is A = πr² = π(6)^2 = 36 pi square units.

Then form the fractional multiplier

11/6 π

----------- = 11/12

2 π

... and multiply the previous result (area of the whole circle) by this 11/12:

Area of the sector is then A = (11/12)(36 pi square units), or 33 pi square units
