The areas of two sectors with the same radius are in the ratio (5:8). If the smaller sector angle is (75^\circ) what is the larger sector angle in radians?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (\frac{2\pi}{3})
For equal radii sector area is proportional to angle. The larger angle is (75^\circ\times\frac{8}{5}=120^\circ=\frac{2\pi}{3}).
