  • r=6cm
  • Angle=60°

Area of sector

  • Ø/360×πr²
  • 60/360×π(6)²
  • 1/6π(36)
  • 18.84cm²

Answer:

  • A) 18.8 cm²

Explanation:

Area of sector formula

  • A = πr²*θ/360, where θ is the central angle of sector

Substitute and solve

  • A = 3.14*6²*60/360 = 18.84 cm²

Correct choice is A
