In the figure, angle ZYX is measured in degrees. The area of the shaded sector can be determined using the formula StartFraction measure of angle Z Y X Over 360 degrees EndFraction (pi r squared). Which best explains the formula?
The central angle measure of the sector divided by the total angle measure of a circle multiplied by the area of the circle will yield the area of the sector.
