@mathslover

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[\Large \text{area of sector} = \frac{\theta}{360} * \pi r^2\]

mathslover (mathslover):

^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60/360 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

mathslover (mathslover):

Forgetting something there mvrc... pi r^2

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was just saying for the first part and then its \[\frac{ 60 }{ 360} \pi 6^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but idk exactly how to solve it when I get to 60/360 pi36

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Use a calc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ik but then do I put 36 /1 and then multiply and divide?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Which calc do you have?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

(60/360) * pi * (6)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3√3un2 4.5√3un2 9√3un2 theses are the choices it gives me. and I just have a regular one on the pc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help @saifoo.khan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or @mathslover

mathslover (mathslover):

@mvrc1996 what is 'un' there in the options?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk

mathslover (mathslover):

The answer should be : \(6\pi \) but that is not given in the options. hmn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe its just 1/6 because its just asking for that section

mathslover (mathslover):

Oh yeah we did a mistake @saifoo.khan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

https://media.glynlyon.com/g_geo_2012/8/group103bb.gif now its asking for the shaded area

mathslover (mathslover):

We found area of sector NOT the area of triangle. Area of triangle = Area of sector - Area of segmennt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do I find the area of the segment?

mathslover (mathslover):

I have to go mvrc .. it is 11:50 PM here.. sorry . THis will help u for sure : http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/geometry/GP14/CircleSectors.htm @hartnn @AravindG and @amistre64 - any of these can help u mvrc. Good luck
