Find the area of a sector with an angle of 55° and a radius of 12 cm. Use 3.14 for π . Round to the nearest hundredth.(1

Answer 1

To find the area of a sector, we use the formula:

Area = (θ/360) x π x r^2

where θ is the angle in degrees and r is the radius.

Plugging in the values given:

Area = (55/360) x 3.14 x 12^2
Area = (0.1528) x 3.14 x 144
Area = 0.479 x 144
Area = 68.976

Therefore, the area of the sector is approximately 68.98 square cm when rounded to the nearest hundredth.
