Find the area of a sector of a circle with radius 21 cm if angle of the sector is 60°.
As we know, the area of a sector having angle as 'theta' and radius as 'r' is given by--
theta / 360 * pie r2
here , theta = 60o , r = 21 cm.
therefore , 60/360 * pie ( 21)2
i.e., 1/6 * pie * 441
i.e., 1/6 * 22/7 * 441
i.e., 1/6 * 22 * 63
i.e., 1/6 * 1386
i.e., 231 cm2
that is , the area of the sector is 231 cm2
hope it helps..!!!
