Answer:

1995: 22°

2005: 36°

Explanation:

Central angle of the sector representing nuclear energy = percent of nuclear energy represented ÷ 100 × 360°

For 1995:

% represented by nuclear energy = 6.40% ≈ 6%

Central angle of the sector it represents =
(6)/(100)*360


= (6*360)/(100)


= (6*36)/(10) = (216)/(10) = 21.6

Central angle represented by nuclear energy in 1995 = 21.6 ≈ 22° (to nearest whole number)

For 2005:

% represented by nuclear energy = 10.10% ≈ 10%

Central angle of the sector it represents =
(10)/(100)*360


= (10*360)/(100)


= (1*36)/(1) = (36)/(1) = 36

Central angle represented by nuclear energy in 2005 = 36°
