Answer:

a.

Explanation:

the area of a whole circle (360°) is

pi×r²

in our case

pi×10² = 100pi

but here we don't need the full circle. we only need a fraction of the whole circle : 128/360

so, the area of the sector is

100pi × 128/360 = 100pi × 16/45 = 20pi × 16/9 =

= 111.7010721... cm² ≈ 111.7 cm²
