A segment of a circle has a 120 arc and a chord of 8in. Find the area of the segment. No diagram.
Here's question 2 Find the area of one segment formed by a square with sides of 6" inscribed in a circle. (Hint: use the ratio of 1:1:√2 to find the radius of the circle.) No diagram.
question 3 Find the area of the larger segment whose chord is 8" long in a circle with an 8" radius. (Hint: A chord divides a circle into two segments. In problem 1, you found the area of the smaller segment.) No diagram.
Q4 Find the area of the shaded portion in the square. (assuming the central point of the arc is the corresponding corner) Diagram posted.
Q5 Find the area of the shaded portion intersecting between the two circles. Diagram posted.
Q6 Find the area of the smaller segment whose chord is 8" long in a circle with an 8" radius. No Diagram,
Q7 A regular hexagon with sides of 3" is inscribed in a circle. Find the area of a segment formed by a side of the hexagon and the circle. (Hint: remember Corollary 1--the area of an equilateral triangle is 1/4 s2 √3.) No diagram.
Q8 An equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle with a radius of 6". Find the area of the segment cut off by one side of the triangle. No diagram.
Q9 Find the area of the shaded portion in the circle. Diagram posted.
my bad i didnt see this lol.
segment of a circle the formula is \[r ^{2}(\Pi \Theta/360-\sin \Theta/2)\] use this formula
Qns.1 Area of segment = area of sector -triangular portion Chord length is 8 inches = 2 radius sin120/2 radius= 8/sqrt(3) area of segment = (120/180) *pi*r^2 - (r^2 sin120) /2=44.68 - 9.23= 35.44 I apologize, i think you need to find exact form, but it is too tedious to simplify.
@triph the eq i hav given is the best 1
i think
Hmm yea your formula is actually just a rearrangement of mine. it is difficult to make out because of the way i write it.
qns2. a square inscribed in a circle, the diagonal of the square is the diameter of the circle. Given the side of the square is 6 inches. The diagonal (using Pythagoras Theorem) sqrt(6^2 +6^2) = 8.5 Radius of circle = 4.25 Since the chord length is the side of the square, the central angle is 90 degrees. given all these, find area using the above equation . Area = (@/360)pi r^2 - (r^2 sin@)/2 = (90/360)pi* 4.25^2 - (4.25^2 sin90)/2 work it out yourself thx.
qns1. i made a small error. area of segment = (120/180) *pi*r^2 - (r^2 sin120) /2=44.68 - 9.23= 35.44 IT SHOULD BE || area of segment = (120/360) *pi*r^2 - (r^2 sin120) /2=44.68 - 9.23= 35.44
qns3. No idea what is the larger segment. There should be no larger segment.
qns4. Shaded area in square = area of square - area of quadrant = 6^2 - (1/4) pi 6^2
qns.5 shaded area = area of one segment *2 Given chord length and radius, find central angle chord length= 2 r sin(@/2) 4 = 2 (4) sin(@/2) @ = 60degrees Area of segment = (@/360)pi r^2 - (r^2 sin@)/2 = (60/360) pi 4^2 - (4^2 sin60)/2
qns6. Don't know what is the smaller segment referring to, otherwise the method to solve is exactly similar to the above questions. Given chord length and radius, find central angle, then substitute all into the formula to solve for area.
qns.7 With the chord length given to b 3 inches. The central angle is 360/6 = 60 degrees. Why because the hexagon is 6 sided. If the chord length is the side of a hexagon the central angle would be 1/6 of 360degrees. Given chord length and central angle, find the radius. Having theses 3 components find area with the formula used in the above questions.
For Q4\[A=Number Number -Number\]
qns.8 Given the radius of the circle is 8 inches. if the chord is one side of the triangle, the central angle is 360 /3 = 120 degrees. Given central angle and radius, find the chord length. Same idea, with these 3 components find area.
Foe Q9 \[A= Number Number \pi - Number \sqrt{Number}\]
I cant see what you typed. All i see is this For Q4 A=NumberNumber−Number Foe Q9 A=NumberNumberπ−NumberNumber−−−−−−−√
No you see for number 9 and 4 I guess thats how its suppose to look like
hmm so wat seems to be the problem. It is alright the way i see it.
never mind but thanks for the answers and I'll get back at you when I get stuck again.thanks.
Np. I will go sleep now. Im tired.
