The circle has circumference 18π
circumference = (2)(radius)(π)
So, (2)(radius)(π) = 18π
Solve to get: radius = 9

So, OR = 9 and OT = 9

Now, we'll deal with arc RST
Here the sector angle = 60°
60°/360° = 1/6
So, the arc RST represents 1/6 of the ENTIRE circle
Since the ENTIRE circle has circumference 18π, the length of arc RST = (1/6)(18π) = 3π

So, the perimeter of sector RSTO = 9 + 9 + 3π
= 18 + 3π

Answer: B

We see that the perimeter of sector RSTO consists of 2 radii of the circle and arc RST.

Since the circumference of the circle O is 18Ï€, its radius must be 9. Since the angle measure of sector RSTO is 60 degrees, the length of arc RST must be 1/6 of the circumference of the circle (notice that 60 degrees is 1/6 of 360 degrees). Therefore, arc RST has a length of 1/6 x 18Ï€ = 3Ï€. So the perimeter of sector RSTO is

3Ï€ + 9 + 9 = 3Ï€ + 18

Answer: B
