• sector of a circle
• segment of a circle
Area of a Circle
MANUFACTURING An outdoor accessories
company manufactures circular covers for
outdoor umbrellas. If the cover is 8 inches longer
than the umbrella on each side, find the area of the
cover in square inches.
The diameter of the umbrella
is 72 inches, and the cover
must extend 8 inches in each
direction. So the diameter of
the cover is 8 + 72 + 8 or
88 inches. Divide by 2 to find
that the radius is 44 inches.

Area of a Sector
PIE A pie has a diameter of 9 inches and is cut
into 10 congruent slices. What is the area of one
slice to the nearest hundredth?
Step 1
Find the arc measure of a pie slice.
Since the pie is equally divided into
10 slices, each slice will have an arc
measure of 360 ÷ 10 or 36.
Step 2
Find the radius of the pie. Use this measure
to find the area of the sector, or slice.
The diameter is 9 inches, so the radius is
4.5 inches.

x = 36 and r = 4.5

Answer: The area of one slice of pie is about
6.36 square inches.
