Correct Answer: $3 \sqrt{14} \mathrm{~cm} $
Solution : The area \(A\) of a sector of a circle with radius \(r\) and central angle \(\theta\) (in degrees), $A = \frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^2$ Given that \(A = 66\;\mathrm{cm^2}\) and \(\theta = 60^{\circ}\). $⇒66 = \frac{60^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}} \times \frac{22}{7} \times r^2$ $⇒66=\frac{11}{21}r^2$ $⇒r^2 = 126$ $⇒r^2=3\sqrt{14}\ \text{cm}$ Hence, the correct answer is $3\sqrt{14}\ \text{cm}$.
