Area of the Segment Worksheets

Our pdf finding area of the segment worksheets have all the extra work that the eager beavers would never be content without! Simply remind them that area of segment is area of sector minus the area of triangle. First, children find the area of the sector using the formula (θ/360°) x πr². Next, they divide the triangle in half and treat it as a right-angled triangle. Using the law of sines to obtain one side of the triangle, students can calculate the area of the triangle. Finally, they subtract double the triangle’s area from the area of the sector to get the segment's area. Students choose between customary and metric units and solve these worksheets with all guns blazing! Use our free worksheet for a flying start.
