Section 11-5 Areas of Circles and Sectors
Area of a Circle • The area of a circle is times the square of the radius. Formula:
A B O C Sector of a circle • A region bounded by two radii of the circle and their intercepted arc. Sector AOB *The unshaded region is also a sector!
To find the area of a sector: • Find the Area of the Circle • Find the ratio of the measure of the arc to the whole circle. • Find the product of the ratio and Area.
Area of a sector = In General:
1. 5 units2 3. units2 2. Example: Find the area of sector AOB.
