Introduction For Segments

• Today, our spotlight shines on a topic that revolves around circles:


Segments. In this presentation, we'll dissect the intricate elements,
applications, and implications of circles, exploring them segment by
segment. Each segment will illuminate a different facet of circles,
from their foundational properties to their diverse real-world
applications. So, without further ado, let's continue the
presentation.
What is a
Segment?
• A segment of a circle can be
defined as a region bounded by
a chord and a corresponding
arc lying between the chord's
endpoints. In other words, a
circular segment is a region of a
circle which is created by
breaking apart from the rest of
the circle through a secant or a
chord.
Types Of Segments

There are two main types of segment

• The major segment is the segment


where the arc length is greater than
half the circumference of the circle.

• The minor segment is the segment


where the arc length is less than half
the circumference of the circle
Properties of a Segment
• It is the area that is enclosed by a chord
and an arc.

• The angle subtended by the segment at


the center of the circle is the same as the
angle subtended by the corresponding
arc. This angle is usually known as the
central angle.

• A minor segment is obtained by


removing the corresponding major
segment from the total area of the circle.

• A major segment is obtained by


removing the corresponding minor
segment from the total area of the circle.

• A semicircle is the largest segment in any


circle formed by the diameter and the
corresponding arc.
Real Life Application of a
Segment

application of parts of a circle onto a
physical park showing the major parts
of a circle.
Conclusion

• In conclusion, segments within circles offer us a framework for


understanding geometric relationships and practical
applications. Their versatility and significance extend beyond
mathematics into various real-world scenarios. Let's apply these
insights creatively and continue exploring the depths of
geometry.
Fun Facts

• The perimeter of a circular segment includes the length of the


chord plus the length of the arc segment.
• A circular segment is related to a circular sector but differs
in that a segment is formed by a chord.
• A circular sector is bounded by two radii and an arc, whereas a
circular segment is bounded by a chord and an arc.
