@563blackghost Help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how you think it that you can solve it easy right ?

OpenStudy (love_333):

I honestly have no idea how to work this out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. like a first step this sector of 60 degree angle is 1/6 part of the circle - yes ?

OpenStudy (love_333):

right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so bc. the circle has a central angle of 360 degree and 60 is 1/6 part of this 360 ok. so than you calculi area of the circle and from this result you subtract this 1/6 part of this area so you get the 5/6 part from area of the circle - yes ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so than you assum area of this 5/6 part of the circle with area of this triangle equilateral so will get area of shaded region - do you agree it ?
