With this sector we can create a proportion to find the area watered by the sprinkler. 85 degrees over a total 360 degrees would be simplified to the following -
17 / 72 = ( About ) 4.235
Thus, we can calculate the area of the circle with a range of 5 meters radius, and divide by about 4.235 to receive the area watered by the sprinkler, or the area of the sector -
