Ex 11.1, 14
Tick the correct answer in the following :
Area of a sector of angle p (in degrees) of a circle with radius R is
(A) 𝑝/180 × 2πR (B) 𝑝/180 × πR2 (C) 𝑝/360 × 2πR (D) 𝑝/720 × 2πR2
Area of a sector = θ/360× 𝜋𝑟2
Where θ = angle , r = radius of circle
Here, we have
𝛉 = p and radius = R
Putting these values in formula
Area of sector = 𝜃/360×𝜋𝑅2
= 𝒑/𝟑𝟔𝟎×𝝅𝑹𝟐
But , these is no such option which is matching with answers
So, multiplying 2 in numerator and denominator
Area of sector = 𝑝/360×πR2×2/2
= 𝒑/𝟕𝟐𝟎× 𝟐𝛑𝐑𝟐
So, the correct answer is (d)
