    The sprinkler rotates through an angle of 115° and sprinkles water outward for a distance of 12 ft.

    Therefore the radius of the circular section is 12 ft as shown in the diagram below.

    The total circle occupies 360°. Therefore the area watered is

    A = (115/360) * π * (12 ft) ²

    = 144.513 ft²

    Answer: 144.5 ft (nearest tenth)
