Answer

Given,

Area of sector = 770 cm2

Central angle = 200°

We know that,

Area of sector=θ360°×πr2770=200°360°×227×r235=59×17×r2r2=7×9×7r2=441r=441r=21 cm.\Rightarrow \text{Area of sector} = \dfrac{\theta}{360°} \times πr^2 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 770 = \dfrac{200°}{360°} \times \dfrac{22}{7} \times r^2 \\[1em] \Rightarrow 35 = \dfrac{5}{9} \times \dfrac{1}{7} \times r^2 \\[1em] \Rightarrow r^2 = 7 \times 9 \times 7 \\[1em] \Rightarrow r^2 = 441 \\[1em] \Rightarrow r = \sqrt{441} \\[1em] \Rightarrow r = 21 \text{ cm}.

Calculating the arc length :

Arc length=θ360°×2πr=200°360°×2×227×21=59×132=6609=7313 cm.\Rightarrow \text{Arc length} = \dfrac{\theta}{360°} \times 2πr \\[1em] = \dfrac{200°}{360°} \times 2 \times \dfrac{22}{7} \times 21 \\[1em] = \dfrac{5}{9} \times 132 \\[1em] = \dfrac{660}{9} \\[1em] = 73\dfrac{1}{3} \text{ cm}.

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
