The sector of a circle with a 12-inch radius has a central angle measure of 60°.

What is the exact area of the sector in terms of ​ π ​?

Respuesta :

Answer: Area of sector in term of π is 24 in.².

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Radius of the sector of a circle = 12 inch

Central angle = 60°

As we know the formula for "Area of sector":

[tex]Area=\frac{\theta}{360^\circ}\pi r^2\\\\Area=\frac{60}{360}\times \pi\times 12\times 12\\\\Area=24\pi\ inch^2[/tex]

Hence, Area of sector in term of π is 24 in.².

Answer:

The exact area of the sector in terms of ​π is [tex]24\pi \thinspace inches^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the radius of circle 12-inch and the central angle measure of 60°.

We have to find the the exact area of the sector in terms of ​ π.

As the area of sector can be calculated by the formula

[tex]A=\frac{\theta}{360^{\circ}}\times\pi r^2[/tex]

where [tex]\theta[/tex] is the central angle in degree and r is the radius of circle.

Now, [tex]A=\frac{60}{360^{\circ}}\times\pi (12)^2[/tex]

              [tex]=\frac{1}{6}\times\pi (12)^2[/tex]

              [tex]=24\pi \thinspace inches^2[/tex]

Hence, the exact area of the sector in terms of ​π is [tex]24\pi \thinspace inches^2[/tex]
