If the central angle of the sector is 80 degrees, then the portion of the area of the entire circle represented by the sector is 80 divided by 360, or 2/9 of the total area. Using the given radius, calculate the area of the entire circle, and then multiply that value by 2/9 to get the area of the sector.
