Here is the sector area formula $A = \frac{ x }{ 360 } \times \pi r^2$

3. anonymous

In this case, x is the degree of the sector (121) and r is the radius (8).

4. anonymous

so 121 would go in place of the x?

5. anonymous

yes. X is the degrees or radians of the sector. In this case, this is in degrees.

6. anonymous

Nevermind, the formula is different for radians. This formula is for degrees.

7. anonymous

so whats the formula? when I plugged in, I got 67.54

8. anonymous

The one that i stated. That is the formula

9. anonymous

so the answer is 67.54?

10. anonymous

if you use 3.14 for pi then yes i think that is the answer

11. anonymous
