Raju and his friends ordered a pizza one night.
Now, the shop from where they bought this, did not cut it into equal pieces. Raju tried to divide it, but the pieces were not equal.
As a fun game, he decided to measure the central angles formed and draw the pizza on a piece of paper.
He found that the radius of the pizza is . The drawing of the pizza came out something like this:
Find the perimeter of minor sector , correct up to decimal place. [Assume ]
