Lesson 7.4A
M.3.G.1 Calculate probabilities arising in geometric contexts (Ex. Find the probability of hitting a
particular ring on a dartboard.)
M.3.G.2 Apply, using appropriate units, appropriate formulas (area, perimeter, surface area,
volume) to solve application problems involving polygons, prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders,
spheres as well as composite figures, expressing solutions in both exact and approximate forms
M.3.G.3 Relate changes in the measurement of one attribute of an object to changes in other
attributes (Ex. How does changing the radius or height of a cylinder affect its surface area or
volume?)
R.4.G.5 Investigate and use the properties of angles (central and inscribed) arcs, chords,
tangents, and secants to solve problems involving circles
Area of Circles
Formula for area of a circle:

πr
Example
Find the area of the given circle.
18mm
Example
Given the endpoints of the diameter of
a circle, find the area of the circle.
Give your answer in terms of π.
STEPS: 1. Use the distance formula to find
the length of the diameter.
2. Halve the diameter to find the
radius.
3. Use the radius to find the area
Example
Given the endpoints of the diameter of
a circle, find the area of the circle.
Give your answer in terms of π.
Endpoints of the diameter are: (7, -3) and (-1, 12)

Given the endpoints of the diameter of
a circle, find the area of the circle.
Give your answer in terms of π.
Endpoints of the diameter: (10, 12) and (5, 24)
Example
Given the circumference of a circle,
find the area of the circle. Give your
answer in terms of π and rounded to
the nearest hundredth.
Circumference = 18 π miles

Given the circumference of a circle,
find the area of the circle. Give your
answer in terms of π and rounded to
the nearest hundredth.
Circumference = 389.56 inches
Comparing Radii and Areas
The radius of circle N is 3 times larger
than the radius of circle P. Describe
how the areas of the two circles
compare.
Vocabulary
Central Angle: An angle made by two
radii
Arc: An unbroken part of a circle
Sector: A region bounded by a central
angle and its intercepted arc
Chord: A segment whose endpoints lie
on the circle
Segment: A region bounded by a
chord and its intercepted arc
