Solving Problem Questions of Circles

Properties of Circles
Center: The point inside the circle that is equidistant from all points on the
circle.
Radius: The distance from the center to any point on the circle.
Diameter: The longest distance across the circle, passing through its center.
Circumference: The distance around the circle.
Arc: A part of the circumference of a circle.
Chord: A line segment that connects two points on a circle.
Sector: A region of a circle bounded by two radii and an arc.
Segment: A region of a circle bounded by a chord and an arc.
Formulas of Circles
Circumference: C = 2pr
Area: A = pr^2
Arc Length: L = (?/360) � 2pr
Sector Area: A = (?/360) � pr^2
Problem-Solving Strategies
Read the problem carefully: Understand what is given and what is required.
Draw a diagram: Visualize the problem and label the given information.
Use formulas and properties: Apply the relevant formulas and properties of circles
to solve the problem.
Check the units: Ensure that the units of the answer are correct.
Verify the answer: Check the reasonableness of the answer.
Common Types of Circle Problems
Finding circumference and area: Given the radius or diameter, find the
circumference and area of the circle.
Finding arc length and sector area: Given the central angle and radius, find the
arc length and sector area.
Finding the radius or diameter: Given the circumference, area, or arc length, find
the radius or diameter.
Solving problems involving chords and tangents: Find the length of chords, the
distance from the center to the chord, and the length of tangents.
Sample Problems
Problem 1: Find the circumference and area of a circle with a radius of 7 cm.
Problem 2: Find the arc length and sector area of a circle with a central angle of
60� and a radius of 10 cm.
