Step-by-step solution
3 stepsUnderstand the relationship between arc length and the circumference of a circle.
The problem states that the length of an arc is of its circumference. This means that the sector enclosed by this arc represents of the entire circle.
The ratio of the arc length to the circumference is equal to the ratio of the sector's angle to .Understand the relationship between the area of a sector and the area of the circle.
The ratio of the area of a sector to the area of the entire circle is the same as the ratio of the arc length to the circumference (or the ratio of the sector's angle to ).
Calculate the area of the sector.
Given that the area of the circle is and the arc length is of the circumference, we can write:
To find the area of the sector, multiply the area of the circle by :
The final answer is .
