Answer:

π/2 or 1.57 square units

Explanation:

The area of a sector with central angle θ is given by the formula ...

A = (1/2)r²θ

Filling in the given value, we find the area to be ...

A = (1/2)(3²)(π/9) = π/2 . . . . square units

Using 3.14 for π, this is ...

A = 3.14/2 = 1.57 . . . . square units
