Answer:
[tex]48\pi[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is 270 degrees. A circle is 360 degrees and 270 is only 75% of this. Very important.
PA is the radius, so it is 8 inches.
Formula for area of a circle: [tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
Solve for the area of the whole circle:
[tex]A = \pi (8)^2 = 64\pi[/tex]
Since the circle is only 75%, that is 0.75
Multiply full area by 0.75 to get 75% of the area.
[tex]64\pi *0.75 = 48\pi[/tex]
Hope this answer helped! :)
