Question

A giant pie is created in an attempt to break a world record for baking. The pie is shown below: A circle is shown with a central angle marked 38 degrees and the diameter marked 20 feet. What is the area of the slice of pie that was cut, rounded to the nearest hundredth? 22.08 ft2 13.19 ft2 33.14 ft2 28.97 ft2

Answer 1

Answer:

33.14 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the circle

The diameter is 20 ft so the radius is 1/2 of the diameter of 20*1/2 = 10 ft

A = pi r^2 = pi ( 10)^2 = 100 pi

The central angle is 38

That is a fraction of the circle, which is 360 degrees

38/360 = 19/180

Multiply the fraction of the circle by the area

19/180 * 100 pi

19/9 * 5 pi

Using 3.14 for pi

33.144444

To the nearest hundredth

33.14 ft^2
