The area of the circular sector is
A=\frac{1}{2}r^{2}\theta

From that, the equation for the central angle is
\theta=\dfrac{2A}{r^{2}}

The perimeter of the circular sector is the sum of the arc length and twice the radius.
P=2r+r\theta\\\\P=r(2+\theta)

From that, the equation for the central angle is
\dfrac{P}{r}=2+\theta\\\\ \theta=\dfrac{P}{r}-2

The value of r can be found by equating these two expressions for θ.
\dfrac{2A}{r^{2}}=\dfrac{P}{r}-2\\\\2r^{2}-Pr+2A=0\\\\2r^{2}-2.9r+0.5=0

By any of several means, you can find that r=0.2 or 1.25. The latter value corresponds to the requirement that the central angle be less than 90°. The radius is ...
  1.25 miles.
