CIRCLE
Circle
A circle is a two-dimensional figure with no sides.
Infinite lines of symmetry
Radius, circumference (perimeter) , diameter, arc (it is any portion of the circumference), chord
Parts of a
Circle
1. Radius- line segment from the center
to the circle. Diameter is two times the
radius
2. Sector- a “pizza” slice or a portion of
the circumference bounded by two radii
3. Chord-a line between two points on a
circle (eg diameter)
4. Segment- the cut formed by a chord
(minor/major sectors)
5. Arc- any portion of the circumference
Find the Circumference of a Circle
The circumference of a circle is the perimeter. It is the distance around the entire
edge of the circle.
Formula for circumference = 2 r where r is the radius and pi is a mathematical
constant whose value is usually given
Formula for Area = r 2
Find the Circumference of a Circle (given radius)
For example: Find the circumference of the circle.
C =2 r
C=2(3.14)*3.2
C= 20.1cm
Find the Circumference of a Circle
Try: The radius of a circle is 15m. Find the circumference.
Find the Circumference of a Circle (given the diameter)
Try: The diameter of a circle is 15cm. Find the circumference.
Find the Radius of a Circle (given the circumference)
The circumference of a circle is 50cm. Find its radius, in cm.
Find the Area of a circle
Try: The radius of a circle is 3.2 cm. Find the area.
Formula for area of a circle:
A=
Area of circle = 3.14x3.2x3.2=
3.14x10.24=
Area of circle= 32.2cm2
Find the Area of a Circle
Try: The radius of a circle is 15cm. Find the area. Pi 3.14
Find the Circumference of a Circle (given the area)
The area of a circle is 25π cm². What is the circumference, in centimeters?
Express your answer in terms of \piπ.
The area of a circle is 81π in². What is the
circumference, in inches? Express your answer in
terms of \piπ.

Area of Sector
Find the area of the sector that is outlined with the bold line.
(Take π = 3.14 and round your answer to one decimal place,
if necessary).
Area of Sector = πr2
= 3.14× (11cm)2)
=
=
= 316.49cm2
If the area of the sector is
given to be 16cm^2, what is
the area of the circle
If the area of the sector is
given to be 16cm^2, what is
the area of the circle
If the circumference of the following circle is 54 cm, what is
the area of the sector?
