Answer:

[tex]Area = 0.785cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]r = 1cm[/tex] -- radius

[tex]\theta = 90^{\circ}[/tex]

Required

Determine the area of the sector

This is calculated as:

[tex]Area = \frac{\theta}{360} * \pi r^2[/tex]

Substitute values for r and [tex]\theta[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{90}{360} * \pi * (1)^2[/tex]

Simplify 90/360

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{4} * \pi * (1)^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{4} \pi[/tex]

Take [tex]\pi[/tex] as 3.14

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{4} * 3.14[/tex]

[tex]Area = 0.785cm^2[/tex]
