Use the given information to find the area of the sector. Round to four decimal places. a sector of a circle with diameter 18 feet and an angle of $frac{3pi}{2}$ radians $ imes$ ft$^2$ Recall that the formula for the area of a sector of a circle is dependent upon the square of the radius and the measure of the central angle which subtends the arc. Does the formula for the area of a sector require degree measure or radian measure of the angle? Is the final answer correct to at least four decimal places?
