Introductionm501e607564c9c594_1528450127855_0Introduction

The teacher introduces the subject of the lesson - calculating the area of a circular sector and the length of its arc.

Procedurem501e607564c9c594_1528446435040_0Procedure

Discussion – which part of the circlecirclecircle is the circular sectorcircular sectorcircular sector?

Students formulate the definition of the circular sector.

Definition

- The circular sector is a part of a circle enclosed by two arms of the interior angle and an arc.m501e607564c9c594_1527752263647_0- The circular sector is a part of a circle enclosed by two arms of the interior angle and an arc.

[Illustration 1]

Brainstorming.

Students are divided into groups and discuss ways of calculating the area of a circular sector, defined by the interior angle. Together they notice that the circular sector is the same part of the circle as the interior angle is of the full angle

Conclusion:

- The area of the circular sectorcircular sectorcircular sector defined in a circlecirclecircle whose ray is r and the interior angle is α is equal to:

Pw=α360π·r2

- The length of the arclength of the arclength of the arc Lw defined in a circle whose ray is r and the interior angle is α is equal to:

Lw=α3602π·r

Students calculate the area of the circular sectorarea of the circular sectorarea of the circular sector and the length of the arclength of the arclength of the arc of the circumference whose ray is 3 cm, defined by the interior circlecirclecircle equal to 60°.

First they notice that the angle 60° is 60°360°=16 of the full angle.

Therefore:

Pw=16π·r2
Pw=16π·32
Pw=32π

The area of the circular sectorarea of the circular sectorarea of the circular sector is equal to 23π.

Lw=α3602π·r
Lw=162π·3
Lw=π

The length of the arclength of the arclength of the arc is equal to π.

Task
Students work individually, using computer. Their task is to observe the triangular lunula, that is an object in the shape of the moon. Students compare the area of the moon and the area of the triangle.

[Geogebra aplet]

Based on the previous description, students make the construction of the triangular lunula on their own and calculate its area. Then they compare the area of the moon with the area of a right‑angled, isosceles triangle.

Students use obtained information in the exercises.

Task
Calculate the area of the circular sectorcircular sectorcircular sector defined by the interior angle 45°.

Task

[Illustration 2]

A circle whose centre is point S and radius is 3 was divided into 6 equal parts. Calculate the area of the coloured part.m501e607564c9c594_1527752256679_0A circle whose centre is point S and radius is 3 was divided into 6 equal parts. Calculate the area of the coloured part.

Task
Calculate the area of the circlecirclecircle knowing that the circular sector defined by the interior angle 60° has the area equal to 4π.

Task
In the circle whose radiusradiusradius is 6 cm was marked an arc defined by the interior angle 330°. Calculate the length of the arclength of the arclength of the arc.

Task
Draw a circumference whose ray is 5 cm. Mark 13 of the length of the arc.

An extra task:
Calculate the radiusradiusradius of the circlecirclecircle in which the interior angle of 120° corresponds to the circular sector whose area is 9π.

Lesson summarym501e607564c9c594_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

Students do the revision exercises.

Then together they sum‑up the classes, by formulating the conclusions to memorise.
