OAB is a major sector of the circle below. Calculate the area of OAB. Give your answer in mm² to 1 d.p.

Answer:
Approx 545.32mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
given:
radius (r):32mm
angle(a)=61 degree
firstly:
61 degrees in percentege:
(61/360)/100%
=16.944444444444%
then,
area of circle:
pi*r^2
(22/7)*32^2
=3218.285714
finally,
16.944444444444%of 3218.285714
=545.3206349 mm^2
OR,
use the formula (θ/360)*(22/7)*r^2
i.e(61/360)*(22/7)*(32)^2
=545.3206349
approx=545.32
Answer:
545.1 mm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the central angle of the sector to 360° = ratio of area of sector to area of circle
Since area of circle = [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]
The area of a sector can be determined by the relation:
[tex]\text{Area of sector} = \pi \times r^2 \times \dfrac{\text{Central Angle}}{360}\\= \pi \times 32^2 \times \dfrac{61}{360}\\\\= 545.1 \;\;mm^2[/tex]
