HLI Holly Springs VORTAC is located in which sector?

This question is about reading a center-sector chart and identifying which radar sector a VORTAC sits in. ATC sectors are wedge-shaped pieces of airspace labeled with numbers, defined by boundary lines (radials) that radiate from the control center. To find which sector contains a facility, you locate the facility’s position on the chart and see which wedge boundaries enclose it. HLI Holly Springs VORTAC lies inside the wedge labeled Sector 12, so that is the sector associated with it on this map. The other sectors do not cover the VORTAC’s position, which is why they’re not correct.
