    Arc Length and Area of Sector

    Uploaded by

    The document discusses arc length and the area of a sector of a circle. It defines an arc length as part of the circumference of a circle and notes that the arc length depends on the measure of the arc in degrees and the size of the circle. A sector is defined as the region bounded by two radii and an arc. Formulas are provided for calculating the arc length and area of a sector given the measure of the central angle and radius of the circle.

    Arc Length and Area of

    Sector

    Arc Length
    The length of part of the circumference.

    The length of the arc depends on what two things?


    1) The measure of the arc.
    2) The size of the circle.

    An arc length measures distance while


    the measure of an arc is in degrees.

    Sector of a circle
    A region bounded by 2 radii and an arc.

    Portions of a Circle: Determine the Arc measure based on the portion given.
