Question

Express answer in exact form.

Find the area of the larger segment whose chord is 8" long in a circle with an 8" radius.


help me

Answer 1

circles with 8" radius seem pretty popular these days.

Answer 2

and also, we have the 8" long chord here - so it's a similar setup to the other question you posted earlier.

Answer 3

although here - looks like they are looking for the area of the larger segment, whereas before we calculated the area of the smaller segment.

Answer 4

So, if we know the area of the smaller segment (from the previous question I answered) - and we can easily calculate the area of the enitre circle . Then the area of the large segment = area of the entire circle minus the area of the small segment (small halfmoon)

Answer 5
