Inscribed Polygon A polygon placed inside a circle such that each vertex of the polygon touches the circle. d a c e B c b A
Circumfrenced Polygons A polygon whose segements are tangent to a circle. Basacly the circle touches the polygons side at a certain point. A B F A B E C D C
Geometric Concept Applied Our geometric concept can be used for finding out the simplest of things Example: A square floor of 12 meters is covered by a circular rug as shown. Find the area of the floor not covered by the rug. TA – CO (Total area – the cut out) 12² - π(6)² 144 – π(36) (144 - 36π)m² 12m 30.90m²
What was Interesting? What was interesting about the article is that it really fully explained what our topic was about, it provided great understandable pictures, and problems were our topic would be applied.
What we learned We learned that there are many methods out there for solving different problems, and that our concept can be used in many ways not only by finding out the remainding area. You can find the measure of the angles of the shape inside the circle.
Things we want to know There isn’t much more that we want to know besides, how to solve other problems involving this concept, and are there really jobs where this concept is used.
