Q14:
Tick the correct answer in the following : Area of a sector of angle $p$ (in degrees) of a circle with radius $R$ is
Tick the correct answer in the following : Area of a sector of angle $p$ (in degrees) of a circle with radius $R$ is
Solution :
Given:
A circle with radius $R$ and a sector subtending an angle $p$ (in degrees) at the center.
To Find:
The area of the sector of the circle.
Step 1: Understanding the relationship between the angle and the area of a circle.
The total angle subtended by a circle at its center is $360^\circ$. The area of a full circle with radius $R$ is given by the formula:
$\text{Area of circle} = \pi R^2$
Step 2: Applying the Unitary Method.
We know that an angle of $360^\circ$ corresponds to an area of $\pi R^2$.
Therefore, an angle of $1^\circ$ corresponds to an area of:
$\text{Area for } 1^\circ = \frac{\pi R^2}{360^\circ}$
Step 3: Calculating the area for angle $p$.
To find the area of a sector subtending an angle $p$ at the center, we multiply the area per degree by $p$:
$\text{Area of sector} = \left( \frac{\pi R^2}{360^\circ} \right) \times p$
$\text{Area of sector} = \frac{p}{360^\circ} \times \pi R^2$
Step 4: Verification with standard options.
Often, this formula is represented by multiplying the numerator and denominator by $2$ to relate it to the circumference or specific sector properties, resulting in:
$\text{Area of sector} = \frac{p}{720^\circ} \times 2\pi R^2$
However, the standard derived formula remains $\frac{p}{360} \times \pi R^2$.
Final Answer: The area of the sector is $\frac{p}{360} \times \pi R^2$.

Ability to connect with children (or with older students), on a personal level. communication and social skills.Teaching can be quite satisfying for people who do it well. I know this because I am a teacher, too. Although I do not think I'm always the best teacher, do I know that the majority of my students love me, and I guess this is partly why good things happen in my classroom. I have spent a lot of time thinking about and done a lot of research in to the question of what characteristics make a teacher effective and how I can succeed in the classroom. Although every great teacher has their own special, unique style, I have found that there are nine specific universal qualities that are necessary for anyone who wants to teach effectively, whether they want to teach in an elementary school or a university. If any teacher possesses the following characteristics and qualities, he/she can become a very good teacher with large fan base.
