Q5(ii):
In a circle of radius 21 cm, an arc subtends an angle of 60° at the centre. Find: (ii) area of the sector formed by the arc (Unless stated otherwise, use $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)
Solution :
Given:
Radius of the circle ($r$) = $21\text{ cm}$
Angle subtended by the arc at the centre ($\theta$) = $60^\circ$
Value of $\pi$ = $\frac{22}{7}$
To Find:
Area of the sector formed by the arc.
Step 1: Stating the Formula
The area of a sector of a circle with radius $r$ and central angle $\theta$ (in degrees) is given by the formula:
$\text{Area of Sector} = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2$
[Where $\theta$ is the angle subtended at the centre and $r$ is the radius of the circle.]
Step 2: Substituting the Given Values
Substitute $\theta = 60^\circ$, $r = 21\text{ cm}$, and $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$ into the formula:
$\text{Area} = \frac{60}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (21)^2$
Step 3: Simplifying the Expression
First, simplify the fraction $\frac{60}{360}$:
$\frac{60}{360} = \frac{1}{6}$
Now, expand $(21)^2$:
$(21)^2 = 21 \times 21 = 441$
Substitute these back into the equation:
$\text{Area} = \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 441$
Step 4: Performing the Arithmetic Calculation
Divide $441$ by $7$:
$441 \div 7 = 63$
Now the expression is:
$\text{Area} = \frac{1}{6} \times 22 \times 63$
Simplify $\frac{63}{6}$ by dividing both by $3$:
$\frac{63}{6} = \frac{21}{2} = 10.5$
Now multiply the remaining terms:
$\text{Area} = 22 \times 10.5$
$22 \times 10.5 = 231$
Final Answer:
The area of the sector formed by the arc is $231\text{ cm}^2$.
