The arc length is calculated as

arc = circumference of circle × fraction of circle

     = 2πr × \frac{60}{360}

     = 2π × 10 × \frac{1}{6} = \frac{20\pi }{6} = \frac{10\pi }{3} cm → C

The area (A) of a sector is calculated as

A = area of circle × fraction of circle

   = πr² × \frac{60}{360}

   = π × 10² × \frac{1}{6} = \frac{100\pi }{6} = \frac{50\pi }{3} cm² → D
