Area of sectors worksheet - Solution

Question 1 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius and central angle are 42 cm and 60° respectively.

Solution :

Area of the sector = (θ/360) x Π r²

r = 42 cm , θ = 60°

By applying those values in the above formula we get,

=  (60/360) x (22/7) x 42 x 42

= (1/6) x 22 x 6 x 42 ==> 924 cm²

Hence, the required area is 924 cm²

Question 2 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius and central angle are 21 cm and 60° respectively.

Solution:

Area of the sector = (θ/360) x Π r²

r = 21 cm , θ = 60°

By applying those values in the above formula we get,

=  (60/360) x (22/7) x 21 x 21

= (1/6) x 22 x 3 x 21 ==> 231 cm²

Hence, the required ares is 231 cm²

Question 3 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius and central angle are 4.9 cm and 30° respectively.

Solution :

Area of the sector = (θ/360) x Π r²

r = 4.9 cm , θ = 30°

By applying those values in the above formula we get,

=  (30/360) x (22/7) x 4.9 x 4.9

= (1/12) x 22 x 0.7 x 4.9 ==> 6.3 cm²

Hence, the required area is 6.3 cm²

Question 4 :

Find the area of the sector and also find the central angle formed by the sector whose radius is 21 cm and length of arc is 66 cm.

Solution :

Area of the sector = (l r / 2) square units    

L = 66 cm

r = 21 cm

= (1/2) x 66 x 21 ==> 33 x 21  ==> 693 square units

Area of the sector = 693 square units

(θ/360) x Π r ² = 693

(θ/360) x (22/7) x (21)² = 693

 θ = (693 x 7 x 360) / (22 x 21 x 21)

 θ = (693 x 360) / (22 x 3 x 21)

 θ = (231 x 180) / (11 x 21)

 θ = (21 x 180) / 21

 θ = 180°

Hence, area of sector and central angle are 693 square units and 180° respectively.

Question 5 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius and length of arc are 6 cm and 20 cm.

Solution :

Area of the sector = (Lr/2) square units    

L = 20 cm

r = 6 cm

= (20 x 6)/2 ==> 10 x 6  ==> 60 cm²

Hence, area of sector is 60 cm²

Question 6 :

Find the area of the sector whose diameter and length of arc are 10 cm and 40 cm.

Solution :

Area of the sector = (Lr/2) square units    

L = 40 cm

diameter = 10 ==> r = 5 cm

= (40 x 5)/2 ==> 20 x 5  ==> 100 cm²

Hence, area of sector is 100 cm²

Question 7 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius is 35 cm and perimeter is 147 cm.

Solution :

radius = 35 cm 

Perimeter of sector = 147 cm

L + 2r  =  147 

L + 2 (35) = 147

L + 70 = 147

 L = 77 cm

Now we have the length of an arc and radius. So we have to use the second formula to find the area of the given sector.

Area of the sector = (1/2) x l r square units      

= (1/2) x 77 x 35 ==> 38.5 x 35 ==> 1347.5 square units

Question 8 :

Find the area of the sector whose radius is 20 cm and perimeter is 110 cm.

Solution :

radius = 20 cm 

Perimeter of sector = 110 cm

L + 2r  =  110

L + 2 (20) = 110

L + 40 = 110

L = 70 cm

Now we have the length of an arc and radius. So we have to use the second formula to find the area of the given sector.

Area of the sector = (l r/2) square units      

=  (70 x 20) / 2 ==> 70 x 10 ==> 700 square units
