12.area Related To Circles

The document discusses properties and formulas related to circles, including: 1) The circumference of a circle is 2πr or πd, where r is the radius and d is the diameter. The area of a circle is πr^2. 2) The area between two concentric circles is π(R^2 - r^2), where R and r are the radii. 3) A segment of a circle is the portion between a chord and arc, and its area is the area of the sector minus the area of the triangle formed by the radii and chord.

Area Related to Circle

Circles: A circle is the locus of a point which moves in a plane in such a way that its
distance from a fixed point always remains the same. The fixed point is called the
centre and the given constant distance is the length of radius of the circle.

If r is the radius of a circle, then

(i) Circumference = 2𝜋𝑟 𝑜𝑟 𝜋𝑑, where d = 2r is the diameter of circle


𝜋𝑑2
(ii) Area = 𝜋𝑟 2 𝑜𝑟 4
𝜋𝑟 2
(iii) Area of semi-circle = 2
𝜋𝑟 2
(iv) Area of quadrant of a circle = 4

Area enclosed by two concentric circles:

If R and r are radii of two concentric circles, then area enclosed by the two circles

= 𝝅𝑹𝟐 − 𝝅𝒓𝟐 = 𝝅(𝑹𝟐 − 𝒓𝟐 ) = 𝝅(𝑹 + 𝒓)(𝑹 − 𝒓)

(i) If two circles touch internally, then the distance between their centres is
equal to the difference of their radii.
(ii) If two circles touch externally, then distance between their centres is equal
to the sum of their radii
(iii) Distance moved by a rotating wheel in one revolution is equal to the
circumference of the wheel.
(iv) The number of revolutions completed by a rotating wheel in one minute =

Segment of circle: The portion (or part) of a circular region enclosed between a chord
and the corresponding arc is called a segment of the circle. In figure adjacent APB is
minor segment and BQA is major segment.

Area of segment APB = Area of the sector OAPB – Area of ∆𝑂𝐴𝐵

Sector of a circle: The portion (or part) of the circular region enclosed by the two
radii and the corresponding arc is called a sector of the circle.

In adjacent figure OAPB is minor sector and OBQA is the major sector.

• Area of the sector of angle 𝜃 = 3600 × 𝜋𝑟 2 𝑜𝑟 × length of arc × radius = 2 𝑙𝑟
2
𝜃
• Length of an arc of a sector of angle 𝜃, 𝑙 = 3600 × 2𝜋𝑟

(1) The sum of the arcs of major and corresponding minor sectors of a circle is
equal to the circumference of the circle.
(2) The sum of the area of major and corresponding minor sectors of a circle is
equl to the area of the circle.

(a) Angle described by minute hand in 60 minutes = 3600


3600
Angle described by minute hand in one minute = ( ) = 60
60
Thus, minute hand rotates through an angle of 60 in one minute.
(b) Angle described by hour hand in 12 hours = 3600
3600
Angle described by hour hand in one hour = ( ) = 300

300 10
Angle described by hour hand in one minute = ( 60 ) = 2
1 0
Thus, hour hand rotates through an angle of (2) in one minute.
