[tex]\bf \textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{\theta\pi r^2}{360}\qquad \begin{cases} \theta=\textit{angle in degrees}\\ r=radius \end{cases}[/tex]

notice your picture, you have both, so, just plug them in

Answer:

Option C [tex]25.64\ in^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a circle is equal to

[tex]A=\pi r^{2}[/tex]

we have

[tex]r=7\ in[/tex]

substitute

[tex]A=\pi(7)^{2}=49\pi\ in^{2}[/tex]

Remember that

[tex]360[/tex] degrees subtends the complete area of the circle

so

by proportion

Find the area of the blue sector for an angle of [tex]60[/tex] degrees

[tex]\frac{49\pi}{360}=\frac{x}{60}\\ \\x={49\pi*60/360[/tex]

[tex]x=25.64\ in^{2}[/tex]
