Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the area of a sector of a circle with a radius of 4 m and a central angle of 90 degrees?
Correct Answer: 12.56 m²
  • Step 1: Identify the radius of the circle, which is given as 4 meters.
  • Step 2: Identify the central angle of the sector, which is given as 90 degrees.
  • Step 3: Use the formula for the area of a sector: Area = (θ/360) × πr².
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: Area = (90/360) × π × (4 m)².
  • Step 5: Calculate (4 m)², which is 16 m².
  • Step 6: Now substitute this value back into the formula: Area = (90/360) × π × 16 m².
  • Step 7: Simplify (90/360) to (1/4).
  • Step 8: Now the formula looks like this: Area = (1/4) × π × 16 m².
  • Step 9: Multiply (1/4) by 16 m², which equals 4 m².
  • Step 10: Now multiply 4 m² by π (approximately 3.14): Area = 4 m² × 3.14.
  • Step 11: Calculate the final area: Area ≈ 12.56 m².
