Answer:
A = 1.5 π in² ≈ 4.7 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
the area (A) of the sector is calculated as
A = area of circle × fraction of circle
= πr² × [tex]\frac{\frac{\pi }{3} }{2\pi }[/tex]
= π × 3² × [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
= 9π × [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
= 1.5π in²
≈ 4.7 in² ( to the nearest tenth )
