Question

The chapter is about other area relationships in a circle such as sector and segment perimeter and area.

For concentric circles with radii of lengths 3 in. and 6 in., find
the exact area of the smaller segment determined by a chord
of the larger circle that is also a tangent of the smaller circle.

Two-dimensional figure measured in terms of radius. It is formed by a set of points that are at a constant or fixed distance from a fixed point in the center of the plane. The parts of the circle are circumference, radius, diameter, chord, tangent, secant, arc of a circle, and segment in a circle.
