You can use a square plus b square equal C square to fijd each length . or you can memorize the special triangles or you can also do proportional problem. it all works

Please help! Consider the given circle with the shaded sector xy and central angle 225. The circumference is 30 units

$\textit{circumference of a circle}\\\\ C=2\pi r~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ C=30\pi \end{cases}\implies 30\pi =2\pi r\implies \cfrac{30\pi }{2\pi }=r\implies \boxed{15=r} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\textit{arc's length}\\\\ s = \cfrac{\theta \pi r}{180}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \theta =\stackrel{degrees}{angle}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=15\\ \theta =225 \end{cases}\implies \widehat{XY}=\cfrac{(225)\pi (15)}{180}\implies \boxed{\widehat{XY}\approx 58.90} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2\qquad \qquad A=\pi (15)^2\implies A=225\pi \implies \boxed{A\approx 706.86}$
