Find the area of three segments formed by the inscribed triangle. The radius of the circle is 3. Round your answer two decimal places. The triangle is a right triangle and the alt angle is 60 degrees.

area of segments=area of circle - area of triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hint: a right angle triangle can be inscribed in a circle only when the hypotenuse passes throgh the centre of the circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I find the area of the right triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@crayolaurworld from above hint what will be the length of hypotenuse???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

r u trying to solve???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is \[9\sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u want me to solve ????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm trying to find the area of all of the different segments in the circle. I have subtracted the area of the triangle from the area of the circle, but which segment area is that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry thet's the area of triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have the area of the circle as 28.27 and the area of the triangle as 15.60. Subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the triangle gives me 12.67. I have no idea how to find the segments though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya right good work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u want the area of segments individually????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I need the area of the smallest, the area of the mid-sized, and the area of the largest segments.
