What is the fraction of the circle if its sector area is 37.7?
🎙️
We can find the area of the full circle using pi times r squared
🎙️
Which would be 36 pi, or around 113.1
🎙️
So our sector covers one 37.7 out of 113.1 of the circle
🎙️
Which simplifies to one third of the area of the circle
This math skill teaches how to determine the fraction of a whole circle represented by a sector. It involves calculating the area of an entire circle and comparing it to the area of the sector to find the fraction.
