Answer:

5 in^2

Explanation:

The area of the sector will always be proportionate to the angle in the circle.

(The area of the sector / area of the circle) is equal to( the angle of the section divided by the angle of the circle)

The total degrees of a circle is 360

(area of the sector) = (60° / 360°) * 30 in^2
