Respuesta :

we know that

The area of a circle is

[tex]A=\pi\cdot r^2[/tex]

we have

r=30 yd

substitute

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\pi\cdot(30)^2 \\ A=900\pi\text{ yd\textasciicircum{}2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The area of full circle is 900pi square yards

Find out the area of 90 degrees sector

Remember that

The area of a 90 degrees sector is one fourth of the area of the full circle

so

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=(\frac{1}{4})\cdot900\pi \\ A=225\pi\text{ yd\textasciicircum{}2} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

therefore

the area of a 90 degrees sector is 225pi square yards
