Each section of the circle is 1 sixth of the circle, so 1/6. 1/6 = .166666... = 16.66...%

The part of a circle enclosed by to radii and an arc?
Is a SECTOR. or SEGMENT.
What geometric shape is a slice of pizza?
Sector of a circle or Circular sector or Circle sector or Disk sector. All are "two radii enclosed by an arc" like a slice of pizza! :)
Area of a part of circle?
Area of a sector of a circle = (pi) x (radius)2 x (central angle of the sector / 360)
What is a pie-shaped section of a circle?
sector
A circle has an area of 24 m What is the area of a 45 sector of this circle?
Divide the angle sector by 360 and multiply it by 24 square meters. The area is equal to 3 square meters.
How do you get the degree measure of sector from the percent?
You have to remember that the complete circle is 360°.When they tell you that the sector is some percent of the circle, it's the same percent of 360° !Example:A sector is 40 percent of the circle. How many degrees is it ?40 percent is the same as 0.40Multiply (0.40 x 360°) and you get 144°. Is that cool ? !
What is a major sector of a circle?
A sector of a circle is the region enclosed by two radii and the circumference. If you draw a picture, you can see that there are actually two regions formed. One has an angle of 180 degrees or less at the center, and the other has an angle of 180 degrees or more. A sector which occupies more than half of the circle is a major sector. To put it more succinctly, a major sector is enclosed by two radii and a major arc of a circle.
What is the area of the shaded sector if the circle has a radius of 3 and the central angle is 60 degrees?
If the angle at the centre is 60° then the sector occupies 1/6 of the circle as 60/360 = 1/6. The area of a circle = πr² The area of the sector = 1/6.π3² = 9/6.π = 4.712 square units.
What is the measure of the angle by the straight sides of the circle divided into 5 equal parts?
A circle has no straight sides but if you mean a circle that has been divided into 5 equal sectors then the angle of each sector is 72 degrees subtended by each arc of the circle.
The area of a sector is the area of the circle multiplied by the fraction of the circle covered by that sector?
The area of a sector is the area of the circle multiplied by the fraction of the circle covered by that sector. This is a true statement and correct formula.
To find the area of a sector you multiply the area of the circle by the measure of the arc determined by the sector?
Area of sector/Area of circle = Angle of sector/360o Area of sector = (Area of circle*Angle of sector)/360o
How do you find the arc in a sector?
If it is a sector of a circle then the arc is the curved part of the circle which forms a boundary of the sector.
Is the area of a sector the area of the circle multiplied by the fraction of the circle covered by that sector?
true
Find the area of the sector when the sector measures 10 degrees and the diameter of the circle is 12?
For a circle where sector measures 10 degrees and the diameter of the circle is 12: Sector area = 3.142 square units.
What is the formula of the sector of the circle?
There is no specific formula for a sector of a circle. There is a formula for its angle (at the centre), its perimeter, its area.
To find the area of a sector you multiply the area of the circle by the fraction of the circle covered by that sector?
That would certainly do it.
