Answer:

Explanation:

Area of 1st segment =128.9 sq.units Area of 2nd segment=91.6 sq.units

We know that the

area of segment is calculated [area of sector -area of triangle]

which is Area of segment=[(θ / 360°) × πr²- (1/2) r²sin θ]

(OR) r²[πθ/360° - sin θ/2], if 'θ' is in degrees ............(i)

Now as per the question θ =163 ° r=9 Putting the values in the equation(i)

Area of sector = 9²[Π *163/360 - (sin(163)/2)]

= 81[1.414 - (-0.355/2)] = 128.89

Now as per the question θ =120 ° r=11 Putting the values in the equation(i)

Area of sector = 11²[Π*120/360 - sin(120)/2]=121*[1.047-0.290] = 91.60

Therefore , Area of 1st segment is 128.9 sq.units

Area of 2nd segment is 91.60 sq.units ( to nearest tenth)
