See Problem 3.

Find the area of each shaded segment. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

  1. A circle has two radius lines measuring 6 centimeters with arc 120 degrees between them. A shaded segment is between the arc and a line connecting the ends of the radii.
  2. A circle has two perpendicular radius lines measuring 8 feet with a shaded segment between the arc between them and a line connecting their ends.
  3. A circle with radius 6 meters has two diameter lines with a shaded region between an arc between them and a line connecting their ends.

B Apply

Find the area of the shaded region. Leave your answer in terms of pi  and in simplest radical form.

  1. A circle with two perpendicular radius lines measuring 18 feet has a shaded region outside a segment between the arc between them and a line connecting their ends.
  2. A circle with two radius lines measuring 9 centimeters 120 degrees apart has a shaded region outside a segment between the arc between them and a line connecting their ends.
  3. A circle with two radius lines measuring 12 meters 60 degrees apart has a shaded region outside a segment between the arc between them and a line connecting their ends.
  4. A shaded square with sides 2 feet has an inscribed circle removed from its center.
  5. A shaded square with sides 8 feet has two semicircles removed spanning opposite sides and meeting at the center.
  6. A shaded square has quarter circles with congruent radii of 14 inches removed from each corner.
  7. Transportation A town provides bus transportation to students living beyond 2 mi of the high school. What area of the town does not have the bus service? Round to the nearest tenth.
  8. Design A homeowner wants to build a circular patio. If the diameter of the patio is 20 ft, what is its area to the nearest whole number?
  9. Think About a Plan A circular mirror is 24 in. wide and has a 4-in. frame around it. What is the area of the frame?
    • How can you draw a diagram to help solve the problem?
    • What part of a circle is the width?
    • Is there more than one area to consider?
  10. Industrial Design Refer to the diagram of the regular hexagonal nut. What is the area of the hexagonal face to the nearest millimeter?

    A hexagonal nut 2 millimeters thick has radius 8 millimeters with a circle of radius 4 millimeters removed from the center.

  11. Reasoning eh b bar  and c d bar  are diameters of circle dot o .  Is the area of sector AOC equal to the area of sector BOD? Explain.
  12. A circle with radius 12 mm is divided into 20 sectors of equal area. What is the area of one sector to the nearest tenth?
