Formula for area of a square is πr^2
But the area of a full circle is calculated for 360°

And so if you want to calculate the area for only a portion of it , i.e. only for 77°, then the formula would be:
77
----- × π × r^2
360

77
= ----- × π × 10.7^2
360

By substituting the value of π here, the area of sector is:

= 76.93 inches

Rounding off to the nearest ten is the answer:

~ 80 inches
