In a circle of radius (6) cm the central angle is ( \frac{\pi}{3} ) radians. What will be the area of the sector?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (6\pi) square cm
The sector area is ( \frac{1}{2}r^2\theta ) so ( \frac{1}{2}\times36\times\frac{\pi}{3}=6\pi ). Apply the formula directly when the angle is in radians.
