What do skateboarding and baked goods have in common with math? You can use them to connect half-pipe ramps and cakes to arcs and sectors. Pupils compare the lengths of three different ramp options of a skate park. They calculate the...

Introduce learners to two methods to estimate the formula for the area of a circle. The first method uses a sector of a circle to form a rectangle, and the other uses grids to estimate the area. The problems in the 18th segment of a...

In 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 find...

What is an annulus? Pupils first learn about how to create an annulus, then consider how to find the area of such shapes. They then complete a problem set on 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...

In this college level geometry worksheet, students convert between degrees and radians.  Students determine arc length and solve problems involving the area of a sector.  The four page worksheet contains seventy-four...

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...

Perimeter check! Pairs work on finding the areas of semicircles and quarter circles using a relationship with squares. The problems challenge pupils to find areas of composite figures made from rectangles, semicircles, and quarter circles.

Uncover strategies for finding areas of composite figures. The 23rd lesson in a 29-part module has young mathematicians decompose figures to find total area. Figures decompose to rectangles and circular regions.

Student find the area of a sector of a circle. In this geometry lesson, high schoolers  define the sector of a circle using a sketch. They find and identify examples of sector in the real world.

Find the length of an arc. Students relate central angles to the area and length of a sector and graph circles on the TI to make predictions.

Students find the areas of geometric shapes. In this geometry lesson plan students find and measure the sides, perimeters, and areas of quadrilaterals, triangles, and circles. Students relate the measures to the others by using formulas.

In this Squeeze Theorem worksheet, students compute limits, identify a graph that represents the Squeeze Theorem, and graph given functions. This two-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.

Students find the surface area of cones. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the dimensions of each three-dimensional shape and use the correct formula to solve the problem. They relate concepts of cones to the real world.

Sstudents explore and analyze the properties of geometric areas.  In this geometry lesson, sstudents use technology to simulate spinners and dartboards in order to fing areas of circles and sectors of circles and compare and...

Tenth graders investigate the volume of a cylinder.  In this geometry lesson plan, 10th graders create three-dimensional cylinders and use a ruler to determine the dimensions.  The lesson plan progresses to the use of the...

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders calculate the perimeter and area using the specific formula for that polygon. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

Students calculate the area and diameter length of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the use of pivots as they review parts of a circle. They create a circle using cardboard and label all the parts.
