Question

planting various fruits as shown below
use the information above to answer questions: 26 and 27.

  1. find the angle subtended by the sector for pineapples.

a. 66° d. 43°
b. 63° e. 33°
c. 53°

  1. how many acres of land is used in planting guava?

a. 14 d. 24
b. 16 e. 34
c. 18

Explanation:

Step1: Find the angle for pineapples

The sum of angles in a circle is \(360^{\circ}\).
Let \(x\) be the angle for pineapples.
We know \(72^{\circ}+108^{\circ}+54^{\circ}+63^{\circ}+x = 360^{\circ}\).

$$ LATEXBLOCK0 $$

Step2: Assume total land is \(120\) acres (since \(360^{\circ}\) represents total land, and if we assume a common - total for percentage - like problems, we can use the proportion for guava)

The proportion of guava is \(\frac{54}{360}\).
If total land \(L = 120\) acres (a common assumed total for circle - graph problems when not given, as \(360\) is related to \(120\) by \(360\div3 = 120\)), then land for guava \(G=\frac{54}{360}\times120\).

$$ LATEXBLOCK1 $$

Answer:

  1. B. \(63^{\circ}\)
  2. C. \(18\)
