Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

Length of the arc = \(\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi r\)

= \(\frac{300}{360} \times 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 14\)

= \(\frac{220}{3}\)

= 73.33 cm

Perimeter of the sector = Length of the arc + 2r

= 73.33 + 2(14)

= 101.33 cm

There is an explanation video available below.
