x = r*cos(theta)
y = r*sin(theta)
for alpha < theta < alpha + 90 degrees
where r is the radius and alpha is any angle (which determines the direction in which the quarter circle is facing).

A quarter of a circle is 2/8 of a circle. Add to that an eighth (1/8) of a circle (not eight) and this equals 3/8 of a circle. This equates to 37.5 % of a circle.
The equation of the circle is: x^2 + y^2 = 81
Equation of a circle when its centre is at (0, 0): x^2 + y^2 = radius^2 Equation of a circle when its centre is at (a, b): (x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = radius^2
The inner circle is x2 + y2 = 4. The radius of the inner circle is the square root of 4, which is 2. To find the radius of the outer circle, multiply 2 times 4. The radius of the outer circle is 8. Square 8 (82 or 8 x 8) to find the number to put into the equation of the outer circle. This is 64. The equation for the outer circle is x2 + y2 = 64.
A unit circle is a circle of radius 1. If it's center is at the origin of an xy-coordinate system, then the equation is x (squared) + y (squared) = 1
