Consider a sector of 35 degrees carved out from a circle of radius 7 in. a. Find the length of the arc of the outer edge. b. Find the area of the sector.
Solution
Given radius r =7
Angle = 35 = 7 /36
a) Length of the arc = r * Angle
= 7 * 7/36
= 49 /36
b). Area of sector = (.r2/360) * Angle
= (.49./360) * 35
= 49. * 7/72
= 343./72
