Respuesta :

area of circle = pi x r^2

using 3.14 for pi

 area = 3.14 x 15^2 = 706.5 square miles

270/360 = 0.75

706.5 * 0.75 = 529.875

 rounded to nearest mile = 530 miles

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

The light house light is making an arc, so please refer the diagram I have attached.

The angle is 270 degree. Converting it into radians :

[tex]270*\frac{\pi }{180}  = 4.7124[/tex]

The radius of the arc will be = 15 m

So, area of the arc will be = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*angle*radius^2[/tex]

So, area of the arc will be = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*4.7124*15^2[/tex]

So, area of the arc [tex]= 530.143[/tex]

To the nearest square meter, the area id 530 square meters.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)
