Answer:

About 22.2 square feet

Explanation:

First, you need to find the area of the full circle. The area of a circle is \pi r^2, which in this case is:


\pi r^2 = \pi \cdot 7.13^2\approx 159.628

Now, since the sector is only 50 out of the total 360 degrees in a circle, you need to multiply this value by 50/360, which yields and area of about 22.2 square feet. Hope this helps!
