1. An equilateral triangle is inscribed in a circle with an area equal to 64π square units. Find the area of the triangle.
2. Two concentric circles have radii of 1.2 m and 2.8 m. The central angle is 60grad. Find the area of the portion of the sector of the
larger circle, which is outside the smaller circle.
3. A circle having an area of 144 π sq.cm, is cut into two segments by a chord that is 6 cm from the center of the circle. What is the
area of the smaller segment?
4. An equilateral triangle of side 6cm is inscribed and circumscribed about a circle. The area bounded by two concentric circles is called
annulus; find the area of the annulus.
5. Given DE=6.4 cm, CE=15cm, AC=12cm, and θ=30°. Find the area of the quadrilateral shown.
6. The area of a circle is 100π . What is the length of the side of a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle?
7. Find the area of the leaf figure shown which two congruent quarter arcs of radius 10cm bound.
8. The distances between any two centers of the three coplanar circles that are externally tangent to each other are 20, 24, and 28 cm.
Find the area of the smallest circle.
9. Two perpendicular chords divide a circle with a radius of 35cm into four parts. If the perpendicular distances of both chords are 6 cm
each from the center of the circle, find the area of the smallest part.
10. What is the length of the major arc AE if the area of the rectangle ABCD shown in the figure below is 18 sq. ft. and the side AB, which
is tangent to the circle at A, measures 6 ft.?
11. What is the area of triangle ABC, if AB is tangent to the circle as shown?
12. The area of a triangle inscribed in a circle is 60 cm2 and the radius of the circumscribed circle is 8 cm. If the two sides of the inscribed
triangle are 10 and 12 cm, respectively, find the third side.
13. Find the area of a portion of a semicircle of radius 15 m that is outside the area of an inscribed square if the base of the square lies on
the diameter of the semicircle.
14. Given a circle whose diameter AB equals 4 cm. If points C and D lie on the circle and angle ABC = 18° and angle BAD = 36°, find the
length of the major arc CD.
15. Three circles with centers A, B, and C are externally tangent to each other as shown. Lines EG and DG are tangent to circle C at
points F and D and intersect at point G. If each circle has a diameter of 8 inches, find the length of DG and the area enclosed by lines
FG and DG and arc FD.
16. Find the area of the portion of the semicircle shown in the figure that is outside of the inscribed triangle.
17. Find the area of the largest circle which can be cut from a square with an edge of 8 cm. What is the area of the material wasted?
18. A circle has an area equal to 25π cm2. Its diameter AB coincides with one of the sides of triangle ACB whose vertex C lies on the
circle. If the triangle has an area equal to 11 cm2, find its perimeter.
19. The triangle-like figure in the diagram is formed from 6 identical closed-packed circles. If the height of the figure is 2 feet, find the
radius of each circle in inches.
20. Determine the area of the segment of a circle if the length of the chord is 15 inches and located 5 inches from the center of the circle.
