  1. Objectives Find the area of sectors. Find arc lengths.

  2. Vocabulary sector of a circle segment of a circle arc length

  3. The area of a sector is a fraction of the circle containing the sector. To find the area of a sector whose central angle measures __°, multiply the area of the circle by _________ .

  4. Helpful Hint Write the degree symbol after m in the formula to help you remember to use degree measure not arc length.

  5. Example 1A: Finding the Area of a Sector Find the area of each sector. Give answers in terms of and rounded to the nearest hundredth. sector HGJ

  6. Example 1B: Finding the Area of a Sector Find the area of each sector. Give answers in terms of and rounded to the nearest hundredth. sector ABC

  7. Example 2: Automobile Application A windshield wiper blade is 18 inches long. To the nearest square inch, what is the area covered by the blade as it rotates through an angle of 122°?

  8. A ______________ is a region bounded by an arc and its chord.

  9. Example 3a: Finding the Area of a Segment Find the area of segment LNM to the nearest hundredth. Step 1 Find the area of sector LNM.

  10. Step 2 Find the area of ∆LNM. Draw altitude NO. Example 3a Continued Find the area of segment LNM to the nearest hundredth.

  11. Remember! In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the length of the leg opposite the 60° angle is √3 times the length of the shorter leg.

  12. Remember! In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, the length of the leg opposite the 60° angle is √3 times the length of the shorter leg. Example 3a Continued Find the area of segment LNM to the nearest hundredth. Step 3 area of segment = area of sector LNM – area of ∆LNM

  13. Example 3b Find the area of segment RST to the nearest hundredth. Step 1 Find the area of sector RST.

  14. Example 3b Continued Find the area of segment RST to the nearest hundredth. Step 2 Find the area of ∆RST.

  15. Example 3b Continued Find the area of segment RST to the nearest hundredth. Step 3 area of segment = area of sector RST – area of ∆RST

  16. In the same way that the area of a sector is a fraction of the area of the circle, the length of an arc is a fraction of the circumference of the circle.

  17. Example 4A: Finding Arc Length Find each arc length. Give answers in terms of  and rounded to the nearest hundredth. FG

  18. Example 4B: Finding Arc Length Find each arc length. Give answers in terms of  and rounded to the nearest hundredth. an arc with measure 62 in a circle with radius 2 m
