Jinsi ya kukokotoa Sector and Arc

Sector and Arc ni nini?

Calculates the area of a circular sector (pie-slice shaped region) given radius and angle. A sector is defined by two radii and the arc between them.

Fomula

A = (θ/360°) × πr² for degrees; A = ½r²θ for radians
r
radius (length)
θ
central angle (degrees or radians)
A
sector area (length²)

Mwongozo wa Hatua kwa Hatua

  1. 1Area = (θ/360) × πr² for degrees
  2. 2Area = ½r²θ for radians
  3. 3Full circle = 360° = 2π radians
  4. 4Half circle sector = semicircle

Mifano Iliyotatuliwa

Ingizo
r = 8, θ = 45°
Matokeo
Area = (45/360)×π×64 ≈ 25.13
Ingizo
r = 6, θ = 2 rad
Matokeo
Area = ½×36×2 = 36

Maswali yanayoulizwa mara kwa mara

Can I calculate sector area if I only know the arc length?

Yes: if arc = a and radius = r, then A = ½ × r × a.

What fraction of the circle is a 60° sector?

60°/360° = 1/6 of the circle, so area = (1/6)πr².

Why are there two formulas for sector area?

One uses degrees (dividing by 360), the other uses radians (multiplying by 1/2). Use whichever unit your angle is in.
