, the problem of finding perimeters and areas reiated to circular figures is of great
r - - -'""*"ctical importance. In this chapter, we shall begin our discussion with a review of
concepts of perimeter (circumference) and area of a circle and apply this knowledge
finding the areas of two sp~cial 'parts ' of a circular region (or briefly of a circle)
own as sector and segment. We shall also ~ee how to find the areas of some
mbinations of plane figures involving circles or their parts.

I"• Perimeter and Arca of u Circle - A R~vicw
Recall lhat the distance covered by travelling once around a circle __is its perimeter,
usually called its drcumference. You also know from your earher classes, that
circumference of a circle bears a conslant ratio with its diameter. This constant ratio
is denoted by the Greek letter 1t (read as 'pi'). In other words,
circumference (1piflg
= 7t -~~

or, circumference = rt x diameter •U
You may also recall that area of a circle iQhere r is the radius of the circle.
Recall that you have verified ir in Class VII, by cutting a circle into a number of
sectors and rearranging them as shown in Fig. 12.2.
