7-2

Hey Brob its Danielle from first hour again. Im gonna come see you at lunch cause i think your email hates my email cause it never sends so i"m stuck using Sarahs again.
*Formula 1: k=(1/2)r^2(theta)
-k is the area of a sector
-r is the radius
-s is the arc length
-theata is the central angle
*Formula 2: k=(1/2)rs
-r is the radus
-s is the arc length
-k is the area of sector
*Formula 3: s=r(theta)
-r is the distance between two objects
- theta is the apparent size
-s diameter fo an object
Example 1: A sector of a circle has a radius 6 cm and central angle 0.5 radians. Find its arc length and area.
-r= 6cm
-theta= 0.5
-s= ?
k= ?
-I would use forumula 1 to find k. k=(1/2)r^2(theta)
k=(1/2)(6)^2(0.5) *You multiply them all
k=9 cm
-Now i would use formula 2 to find s. k=(1/2)rs
9=(1/2)(6)s *First you multiply 1/2 times 6 which will give you 9=3s and then you divide 3 by 9.
s= 3 cm
Example 2: A sector of a circle has arc length 2 cm abd central angle 0.4 radians. Find its radius and area.
-s= 2cm
-theta= 0.4
-k= ?
-r= ?
-I would use formula 3 first to dins r. s=r(theta) *To find r it would be r= s/theta
r= 2/0.4 r= 5 cm
- Now i would use formula 1 to find k. k=(1/2)r^2(theta)
k=(1/2)(5)^2(0.4) k= 5 cm
