12 Areas related
to circles

Syllabus
¾¾ Motivate the area of a circle; area of the sectors and the segments of a circle. Problems based
on areas and perimeter/circumference of the plane figures of circles. (In calculating area of
segment of a circle, problems should be restricted to central angle of 60°, 90° and 120° only.
Plane figures involving triangles, simple quadrilaterals and circle.)

  A line segment joining any two points of a circle is called a chord. A chord passing through the centre of circle is
called its diameter. A diameter is the largest chord of the circle. Here AB is a a diameter, which is a longest chord.
 A diameter of a circle divides a circle into two equal arcs, each known as a semi-circle.

 A part of a circumference of circle is called an arc.
 An arc of a circle whose length is less than that of a semi-circle of the same circle is
called a minor arc.
 An arc of a circle whose length is greater than that of a semi-circle of the same circle is called a major arc.
 The region bounded by an arc of a circle and two radii at its end points is called a sector.

 Two circles (or arcs) are said to be congruent if on placing one over the other cover each other completely.
 The distance around the circle or the length of a circle is called its circumference or perimeter.
