What is the area of the shaded region in the given circle in terms of pi? **Picture coming**
Do you know how to find the area of the entire circle
no
multiply all the sides 2 find the area
\[Area = π × r2 ^{2}\]
sides? its a circle
oh
LOL
i feel stupid
its all good :) hahaha so exactly how would i solve it?
well first you gotta find the hypotenuse of the triangle
this question is tossing my brain around like a rag doll
ha im sorry, so how would i find the hypotenuse?
find the area of the sector... subtract the area of the triangle... sector angle = \[A = \frac{1}{6} \pi \times 6^2\] area of the triangle \[A = \frac{1}{2}\times 6 \times 6 \times \sin(60)\] the the unshaded area is Unshaed = Area of the sector - area of the triangle so the total shaded area = area of the circle - unshaded
I think you should find the area of an equilateral triangle with side length of 6
I am really confused
ok... so the 1st task is to fins the unshaded area... does that make sense..?
yes
area of triangle is 15.58845727
ok... so the sector angle is 60 degrees so you are looking at a sector that is 60/360 or 1/6 of the circle... so the area of the sector is \[A = \frac{1}{6} \times 6^2 \times \pi\] so the sector area \[A = 6\pi\] does that make sense...?
\[(30\Pi +9\sqrt{3}) m ^{2}, (24\Pi +9\sqrt{3}) m ^{2}, (30\Pi +18\sqrt{3}) m ^{2}, (24\Pi +18\sqrt{3}) m ^{2}\]
these are the answers
ok... lets forget the answers for a while... now the area of the triangle.... its isosceles... 2 sides of 6 and a subtended angle of 60 so using trig \[A = \frac{1}{2}\times a \times b \times \sin(C)\] you can calculate this... a = 6, b = 6 and C = 60 evaluate it and post the answer...
leave the answer as an exact value...
15.5884572681
well as an exact value the triangle is \[A = 9\sqrt{3}\] so the unshaded Area = Area of the sector - area of the triangle \[Unshaded = 6\pi - 9\sqrt{3}\] now to find the area of the shaded section Area of the circle is \[A = \pi \times 6^2\] shaded area = area of the circle - unshaded area... I'll let you do the calculation
so the shaded area is \[36\pi - (6\pi - 9\sqrt{3})\]
just simplify it
would the answer be A?
it would...
