Question:

Find the perimeter of a sector (i.e., the curved portion as well as the two straight portions) of a circle of radius 14 cm and sector angle 75°.                                                                                                                                                        [Page No. 129]

Answer: Verified

Given, Radius = 14 cm, Sector angle = 7575^\circ

Arc length=2πr×θ360\text{Arc length} = 2\pi r \times \frac{\theta}{360^\circ}

=2×227×14×75360= 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14 \times \frac{75}{360}

=2×227×14×524= 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14 \times \frac{5}{24}

=1106=55318.33 cm=\frac{110}{6}=\frac{55}{3}\thickapprox18.33\text{ cm}

Perimeter of sector = arc+2r\text{arc} + 2r

=553+2×14= \frac{55}{3} + 2 \times 14

=553+28= \frac{55}{3} + 28

=139346.33 cm=\frac{139}{3}\thickapprox46.33\text{ cm}
