Area in Polar Coordinates Lesson 10.10
Area of a Sector of a Circle • Given a circle with radius = r • Sector of the circle with angle = θ • The area of the sector given by θ r
Area of a Sector of a Region • Consider a region bounded by r = f(θ) • A small portion (a sector with angle dθ) has area β • dθ α •
Area of a Sector of a Region • We use an integral to sum the small pie slices β • r = f(θ) α •
Guidelines • Use the calculator to graph the region • Find smallest value θ = a, and largest value θ = b for the points (r, θ) in the region • Sketch a typical circular sector • Label central angle dθ • Express the area of the sector as • Integrate the expression over the limits from a to b
The ellipse is traced out by 0 < θ < 2π Find the Area • Given r = 4 + sin θ • Find the area of the region enclosed by the ellipse dθ
Areas of Portions of a Region • Given r = 4 sin θ and rays θ = 0, θ = π/3 The angle of the rays specifies the limits of the integration
Area of a Single Loop • Consider r = sin 6θ • Note 12 petals • θ goes from 0 to 2π • One loop goes from0 to π/6
Area Of Intersection • Note the area that is inside r = 2 sin θand outside r = 1 • Find intersections • Consider sector for a dθ • Must subtract two sectors dθ
