Answer:

The area of the sector is 1.57 unit square.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of circle, r = 3

Angle of sector,
\theta=(\pi)/(9)\ radian

If
\theta is in radian, the area of sector is given by :


A=(1)/(2)r^2\theta\\\\A=(1)/(2)* (3)^2* (\pi)/(9)\\\\A=1.57

So, the area of the sector is 1.57 unit square.
