  2. Circular segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_segment

    A circular segment (in green) is enclosed between a secant/chord (the dashed line) and the arc whose endpoints equal the chord's (the arc shown above the green area). In geometry , a circular segment or disk segment (symbol: ⌓ ) is a region of a disk [ 1 ] which is "cut off" from the rest of the disk by a straight line.

    Circular segment ⁡ ... Parabolic area: The area between the curve = and the line = Semiparabolic area. The area between the curve = and the axis, from = to ...

  4. Spherical segment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_segment

    In geometry, a spherical segment is the solid defined by cutting a sphere or a ball with a pair of parallel planes. It can be thought of as a spherical cap with the top truncated, and so it corresponds to a spherical frustum. The surface of the spherical segment (excluding the bases) is called spherical zone. Geometric parameters for spherical ...

  5. Quadrature of the Parabola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature_of_the_Parabola

    A parabolic segment is the region bounded by a parabola and line. To find the area of a parabolic segment, Archimedes considers a certain inscribed triangle. The base of this triangle is the given chord of the parabola, and the third vertex is the point on the parabola such that the tangent to the parabola at that point is parallel to the chord ...

  6. Area of a circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_of_a_circle

    The area of a regular polygon is half its perimeter multiplied by the distance from its center to its sides, and because the sequence tends to a circle, the corresponding formula–that the area is half the circumference times the radius–namely, A = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × 2πr × r, holds for a circle.

  7. Spherical trigonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_trigonometry

    The area of a polygon can be calculated from individual quadrangles of the above type, from (analogously) individual triangle bounded by a segment of the polygon and two meridians, [15] by a line integral with Green's theorem, [16] or via an equal-area projection as commonly done in GIS.

  8. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    The curved surface area of the spherical segment bounded by two parallel disks is the difference of surface areas of their respective spherical caps. For a sphere of radius r {\displaystyle r} , and caps with heights h 1 {\displaystyle h_{1}} and h 2 {\displaystyle h_{2}} , the area is

  9. Circular sector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_sector

    The minor sector is shaded in green while the major sector is shaded white. A circular sector, also known as circle sector or disk sector or simply a sector (symbol: ⌔), is the portion of a disk (a closed region bounded by a circle) enclosed by two radii and an arc, with the smaller area being known as the minor sector and the larger being the major sector.
