Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:[tex]A=76.44\ units^{2}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:To find the approximate area of the circle, calculate the area of one sector and then multiply by 16Remember thatThe area of a triangle (one sector) is equal to[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)[/tex]thereforeThe approximate area of the circle is equal to[tex]A=(16)\frac{1}{2}(1.95)(4.9)[/tex][tex]A=76.44\ units^{2}[/tex]
