Can someone please help me?

 

A sector of a circle has a central angle of 100 degrees. If the area of the sector is 250pi, what is the radius of the circle?

 

Thank you so much!

The formula for circle are is πr^2. You have 100/360 = 50/180 = 5/18 part of the area. 

 

5/18 * πr^2 = 250π

 

5πr^2/ 18 = 250 π

 

5r^2/18 = 250

 

5r^2  = 250 * 18

 

r^2 =250*18/5 = 50*18 = 900

 

r = 30

 

If you don't understand anything feel free to ask!
