Key Topics to Revise

1

Basic Definitions and Concepts

  • A sector is the region between two radii and the corresponding arc
  • A segment is the region between a chord and the corresponding arc
  • Minor sector has angle less than 180°, major sector has angle greater than 180°
2

Step-by-Step Problem Solving for Sectors

  • Step 1: Identify given values (radius, central angle)
  • Step 2: Check if angle is in degrees (convert if needed)
  • Step 3: Apply sector area formula directly
3

Step-by-Step Problem Solving for Segments

  • Step 1: Calculate sector area using (θ/360°) × πr²
  • Step 2: Find triangle area formed by two radii and chord
  • Step 3: For triangle area, use ½ × base × height method
