Understanding Circular Sectors in Trigonometry

A circular sector is defined as the part of a circle bounded by an arc and two radii. The document explains how to calculate the area of a circular sector using formulas based on the angle and radius, and provides an example calculation. It also notes the perimeter of the sector and its relation to the radius and arc length.

(3) i.e. The area of the circular sector= 𝑙 r2

Remark
( 1 ) We can consider that the circle is
a circular sector of angle measure =
360° and the area of the circular
sector = the area of the circle = πr² r r
( 2 )The perimeter of the circular
sector = 2 r + 𝑙
𝑙

Example

The perimeter of a circular sector is 55 cm . and the


length of the radius of its circle is 12 cm .
Find its area.
Solution

∵ r = 12 cm., the perimeter of the sector = 55 cm.


,∵ the perimeter of the sector = 2𝑟 + 𝑙
∴ 55 = 2(12) + 𝑙
∴ 𝑙 = 31 cm.

∴ The area of the sector = 𝓁r = (31)(12)

= 186 cm2 .
