The diagram shows one way to develop the formula for the area of a circle. Pieces of a circle with radius r are rearranged to create a shape that resembles a parallelogram.

Since the circumference of the circle can be represented by 2πr, and the area of a parallelogram is determined using A = bh, which represents the approximate area of the parallelogram-like figure? #14

• A = (2πr)(r)

• A = (2πr)(2r)

• $$A=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(2\pi r\right)\left(r\right)$$

• $$A=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\left(2\pi r\right)\left(r^2\right)$$ A =(2πr)(r2)

Arc Length (COPY NOTES)

Arc Length is the length of a portion of the circumference.

To find this we multiply the circumference by the fraction of the circle the arc subtends.

The fraction of the circle is determined by dividing the central angle by 360.
