Arc Length and Areas of Sectors
How do you find arc lengths and areas of sectors of circles? Young mathematicians investigate the relationship between the radius, central angle, and length of intercepted arc. They then learn how to determine the area of sectors of...

Arc Length Lesson
Students find the length of the arc of a circle. In this geometry instructional activity, students calculate the length of an arc and find the measure of the central angle given the length of the arc. They convert between linear and...
Alabama Learning Exchange
Radians: Just Another Way
Serve up angle measurements on paper plates. Pupils use paper plates and paper-folding techniques to create a unit circle with conversions for special angles. Using their plates, learners explore the relationship between angle...

What Is a Radian?
Here's an algebra II activity that strives to make the concept of a radian less abstract and more conceptual. It takes a hands-on approach to exploring the idea of a radian and allows individuals to develop a definition of a radian...
Curated OER
Radian Measure
Young mathematicians identify central angles, arcs and radius of circles in this pre-calculus lesson plan. They identify the proportion of the circle based on its radius while they convert between degrees and radians measurements.

Length of an Arc and Area of a Sector
For this length of an arc and area of a sector worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 12 different types of problems. First, they find the length of an arc in a circle with a given radius and central angle measure. Then, students...
Mathematics Assessment Project
Calculating Arcs and Areas of Sectors of Circles
Going around in circles trying to find a resource on sectors of circles? Here is an activity where pupils first complete an assessment task to determine the areas and perimeters of sectors of circles. They then participate in an activity...

Electric Hoist Problem
Young scholars convert angle measures between degrees and radians. They are given a copy of the task sheet with a graphic to help describe the situation. Pupils review the angle and arc relationship in a circle related to length of the...

Woody Sine
Students explore the concept of sine. In this sine lesson, students create a sine graph from tooth picks. Students create a unit circle with tooth pick length radius. Students then take the tooth picks from the unit circle and put them...
