Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
\(r=\frac{\theta \times l}{360^{\circ }}\\
r=?, \theta =60^{\circ }\), l = radius of the orginal sector of a circle = 14cm
\(r=\frac{60\times 14}{360}=\frac{7}{3}=2\frac{1}{3}cm\)
\(r=\frac{\theta \times l}{360^{\circ }}\\
r=?, \theta =60^{\circ }\), l = radius of the orginal sector of a circle = 14cm
\(r=\frac{60\times 14}{360}=\frac{7}{3}=2\frac{1}{3}cm\)
