Assignment: Circles: Area of Segments

CIRCLES: AREA OF SEGMENTS

In the previous lesson, we learned how to find the area of a sector of a circle. You will need that skill to be able to find the area of a segment of circle.

Objectives
- Find the area of unusual shapes using the areras of sectors and segments
- Find the area of a segment of a circle

Vocabulary
segment of a circle The part of a circle bounded by a chord and its arc.

Question #1MultipleChoice

A chord divides a circle into ___ segments.

one
two
three
four

Question #2

To find the area of the larger segment, ABY, we can either subtract the area of segment ABX from the area of the circle, or add the area of triangle AOB to the area of sector O-AYB.

Area of Overlapping Circles

To find the area created by overlapping circles you will need to find the area of each segment created when the circles overlap. Take a look at the overlapping segments in circles B and A.

As you can see, circles B and A overlap each other creating an almond-shaped figure. This figure is created by two segments - one from circle A and one from circle B. Use radial lengths in each circle to define the size and shape of the figure. Draw in BC, BD, AC and AD.

Separate the circles so that you can clearly see the individual segments.

To find the area of this figure, you will need to find the area of each segment and then combine the areas.

Question #7

The assignment is about Geometry, dealing with circles, sectors and segments. The assignment has been prepared using MS Word. To use the diagrams of circles, MS Paint and Snipping Tool were employed. The assignment also deals with triangles and their areas. Basic formulae of area of circle, area of segment, area of triangle, relation between the angles of a triangle, basic properties of circles and hexagons were used in completing the assignment. Knowledge of trigonometry and trigonometrical rations of several angles like 30°, 45°, 60° and 90° was essential too. A basic understanding about the above mentioned topics was necessary in solving the questions.
