B.

282.60 in.²
C.

450 in.²
D.

6,750 in.²

Answer 1

Area of a sector=\(\Large{\frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^2}\)

Answer 2

thank you!

Answer 3

would the answer be A?

Answer 4

because it says its wrong

Answer 5

is 60 the theta

Answer 6

60 is not the theta

60 is the distance around the curve. It's the length of the arc

this shaded distance

Answer 7

if the radius is 15, then what is the total circumference?

Answer 8

30?

Answer 9

use the formula

C = 2*pi*r

Answer 10

you're close

Answer 11

i got 94.24

Answer 12

when i plugged it in

Answer 13

yeah \[\Large 30\pi \approx 94.2477796\]

Answer 14

I'm going to leave it as 30pi to keep things as exact as possible

Answer 15

okay so what i do with that
