Circumference of the circle = 2 PI radius
Circumference of the circle = 2 PI 350
Circumference of the circle = 2,199.115

Arc length = (150/360) 2,199.115
Arc length =



916.3 miles

Circle Area = PI radius^2
Circle Area = PI 350350
Circle Area = 384,845.1

Sector Area = (150/360) * 384,845.1
Sector Area =



160,352.13 square miles
