Card 1Basic Definitions

What is a sector of a circle?

Answer

A sector of a circle is the portion (or part) of the circular region enclosed by two radii and the corresponding arc. It looks like a slice of pizza with the center of the circle as the vertex.

Card 2Basic Definitions

What is a segment of a circle?

Answer

A segment of a circle is the portion (or part) of the circular region enclosed between a chord and the corresponding arc. It is bounded by a chord and the arc it cuts off.

Card 3Basic Definitions

What is the difference between a minor sector and a major sector?

Answer

A minor sector is the smaller portion when a circle is divided by two radii, while a major sector is the larger portion. The angle of the major sector = 360° - angle of minor sector.

Card 4Basic Definitions

What is the difference between a minor segment and a major segment?

Answer

A minor segment is the smaller portion when a circle is divided by a chord, while a major segment is the larger portion. Together, they form the complete circle.

Card 5Area Formulas

What is the formula for the area of a sector?

Answer

Area of sector = (θ/360) × πr², where θ is the angle in degrees and r is the radius of the circle. This formula is derived using the unitary method from the total area of the circle.

Card 6Arc Length

What is the formula for the length of an arc?

Answer

Length of arc = (θ/360) × 2πr, where θ is the angle in degrees and r is the radius of the circle. This gives the length of the curved boundary of the sector.

Card 7Area Formulas

How do you find the area of a segment?

Answer

Area of segment = Area of corresponding sector - Area of corresponding triangle. This is because a segment is formed by removing the triangular portion from the sector.

Card 8Problem Solving

If the angle of a sector is 90° and radius is 7 cm, find the area of the sector.

Answer

Area = (θ/360) × πr² = (90/360) × π × 7² = (1/4) × π × 49 = 49π/4 = 12.25π cm² ≈ 38.48 cm²
