What is the area of the sector bound by the center of the circle and arc CD in the circle below? 9.42 ft^2 19.54 ft^2 34.89 ft^2 88.31 ft^2

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the area of part of a circle is proportional to the area of the whole circle ....

OpenStudy (amistre64):

what is the area of the whole circle? and what is 35/360 of that area?

OpenStudy (armyrangers):

Can you show me the formal for that cause I am bad at remembering that stuff

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the formula for the area of a circle has to be memorized, give it your best attempt

OpenStudy (armyrangers):

Ok I think it is R^2*pi

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it is ... now we simply want 35/360 of that area sooo \[\frac{35}{360}\pi r^2\]

OpenStudy (armyrangers):

Would it be 88.31

OpenStudy (amistre64):

no

OpenStudy (amistre64):

visually, its about 1/10 of 3*64

OpenStudy (armyrangers):

Ok I know what I did wrong it would be 19.54

OpenStudy (amistre64):

thats better yes :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

\[\frac{35}{360}\approx\frac{36}{360}\approx\frac{1}{10}\] \[\pi\approx 3\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

3*6.4 is 19.2 gets you close :)

OpenStudy (armyrangers):

Thank you so much

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yep
