Problem

A circular sector has radius 7 7\,cm and a central angle of 150∘150^{\circ}. (i) Convert the central angle to radians, expressing the answer as an exact multiple of π\pi. (ii) Find the length of the arc of the sector. (iii) Calculate the area of the sector. (iv) Keeping the area found in part (iii) unchanged, the central angle is altered to 2.52.5 radians. Determine the new radius of the sector, correct to one decimal place.
