Find the area of a sector of a circle

Find the area of a sector of a circle with a radius of 6 cm if the angle of the sector is 60°.


1 Answer


It is given that the angle of the sector is 60°

We know that the area of sector = (θ/360°)× πr2

Area of the sector with angle 60° = (60°/360°) ×πr2 cm2

= 36/6 π cm2

= 6 × 22/7 cm2

= 132/7 cm2

Hence, the area of the sector of the circle is 132/7 cm2.
