Answer:

27π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the complete circle

The area of the circle is equal to

A=πr²

we have

r=9 cm

substitute

A=π(9)²=81π cm²

step 2

Remember that the area of complete circle subtends a central angle of 360°

so

using proportion

Find the area of a sector formed by a central angle that measures 120°

81π/360°=x/120°

x=120°*81π/360°

x=27π cm²
