Solution
central angle 45°, r = 16 cm
Length of the arc l = `theta^circ/(360^circ) xx 2pi"r" "units"`
l = `(45^circ)/(360^circ) xx 2 xx 3.14 xx 16 "cm"`
l = `1/8 xx 2 xx 3.14 xx 16 "cm"`
l = 12.56 cm
Area of the sector = `theta^circ/(360^circ) xx pi"r"^2 "sq. units"`
A = `(45^circ)/(360^circ) xx 3.14 xx 16 xx 16`
A = 100.48 cm2
Perimeter of the sector P = l + 2r units
P = 12.56 + 2(16) cm
P = 44.56 cm
