  2. Warm Up Find the unknown side lengths in each special right triangle. 1. a 30°-60°-90° triangle with hypotenuse 2 ft 2. a 45°-45°-90° triangle with leg length 4 in. 3. a 30°-60°-90° triangle with longer leg length 3m

  3. Objectives Develop and apply the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle. Develop and apply the formula for the area of a regular polygon.

  4. Vocabulary circle center of a circle center of a regular polygon apothem central angle of a regular polygon

  5. The irrational number  is defined as the ratio of the circumference C to the diameter d, or A circleis the locus of points in a plane that are a fixed distance from a point called the center of the circle. A circle is named by the symbol  and its center. Ahas radius r= ABand diameter d= CD. Solving for C gives the formula C = d. Also d = 2r, so C = 2r.

  6. You can use the circumference of a circle to find its area. Divide the circle and rearrange the pieces to make a shape that resembles a parallelogram. The base of the parallelogram is about half the circumference, or r, and the height is close to the radius r. So A r · r = r2. The more pieces you divide the circle into, the more accurate the estimate will be.

  7. Example 1A: Finding Measurements of Circles Find the area of K in terms of . Area of a circle. A = r2 Divide the diameter by 2 to find the radius, 3. A = (3)2 A = 9 in2 Simplify.

  8. Example 1B: Finding Measurements of Circles Find the radius of J if the circumference is (65x + 14) m. C = 2r Circumference of a circle (65x + 14) = 2r Substitute (65x + 14) for C. r = (32.5x + 7) m Divide both sides by 2.

  9. Example 1C: Finding Measurements of Circles Find the circumference of M if the area is 25 x2ft2 Step 1 Use the given area to solve for r. A = r2 Area of a circle 25x2 = r2 Substitute 25x2 for A. 25x2 = r2 Divide both sides by . Take the square root of both sides. 5x = r

  10. Example 1C Continued Step 2 Use the value of r to find the circumference. C = 2r C = 2(5x) Substitute 5x for r. C = 10x ft Simplify.

  11. Check It Out! Example 1 Find the area of A in terms of in which C = (4x – 6)m. Area of a circle. A = r2 Divide the diameter by 2 to find the radius, 2x – 3. A = (2x – 3)2 m A = (4x2– 12x + 9) m2 Simplify.

  12. Helpful Hint The key gives the best possible approximation for on your calculator. Always wait until the last step to round.

  13. Example 2: Cooking Application A pizza-making kit contains three circular baking stones with diameters 24 cm, 36 cm, and 48 cm. Find the area of each stone. Round to the nearest tenth. 24 cm diameter 36 cm diameter 48 cm diameter A = (12)2 A = (18)2 A = (24)2 ≈ 452.4 cm2 ≈ 1017.9 cm2 ≈ 1809.6 cm2

  14. Check It Out! Example 2 A drum kit contains three drums with diameters of 10 in., 12 in., and 14 in. Find the circumference of each drum. 10 in. diameter 12 in. diameter 14 in. diameter C = d C = d C = d C = (10) C = (12) C = (14) C = 31.4 in. C = 37.7 in. C = 44.0 in.

  15. The center of a regular polygonis equidistant from the vertices. The apothemis the distance from the center to a side. A central angle of a regular polygonhas its vertex at the center, and its sides pass through consecutive vertices. Each central angle measure of a regular n-gon is

  21. Remember! The tangent of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of the opposite leg length to the adjacent leg length. See page 525.
