Commander Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 The strip shown has two sides : A straight line of 1 Unit Length and an arc from a Circle having a radius of 1 Unit ! The diagram is shown below. Find the Area of the Strip in Square Units of the same Unit ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVat Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 SPOILERS - The hide button isn't showing on my device, so this is your warning! Well, your circle sector (from which you would subtract the triangle to get the segment shown) would be 60 degrees, since you have an equilateral triangle in there (sides all equal one unit). So plug in the sector formula, then subtract the triangle from that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Posted August 20 Author Share Posted August 20 The area is around 0.0913 Pi/6 - (Sqrt 3 /4) Using Pi = 22/7 gets this result ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
