Hey guys, is this correct? Ss below

snowflake0531:

area of sector \(\frac{1}{2}(r^2)(\theta) = A\) For the first one you have \(\frac{1}{2}(10^2)(\theta)=100 \\ \frac{1}{2}(100)(\theta) = 100\\50\theta = 100\\ \theta = 2\)

snowflake0531:

"Leave in terms of pi (if needed)" it's not needed for the first one, because it's just 2 radians

m4nt1c0r3:

Oh I thought it was over 360

snowflake0531:

For the second one \(\frac{1}{2}(r^2)(\frac{\pi}{3}) = 6\pi\) \(\frac{\pi}{6}(r^2) = 6\pi\) \(r^2 = 36\) \(r=6\)

there's no such thing as "i think" in math use the formula, and find the variables

snowflake0531:

for the third one \(V = \frac{1}{2}(4^2)(\frac{\pi}{2})\) \(V = \frac{1}{2}(16)(\frac{\pi}{2})\) \(V = 8(\frac{\pi}{2})\) \(V = 4\pi\)

snowflake0531:

honestly, i'm so confused on how you got your three answers care to explain?

m4nt1c0r3:

I thought the formula was θ/360 (pi)(r^2) = A

Three seperate questions snow.

m4nt1c0r3:

Lol well thanks anyways :)

snowflake0531:

one sec let me go to your previous problem

m4nt1c0r3:

which one?

snowflake0531:

okay so

that would be for degrees, you see theta out of 360, which means that it's in degrees, so that's the wrong formula

snowflake0531:

So remember there are two different formulas for circle things, radians and degrees, and know when to use which
