Arc Length and Area of Sector Worksheet

This document contains 5 multi-part math problems involving geometry concepts like circles, sectors, and triangles. Problem 1 involves calculating the value of x in a diagram of 3 circular sectors and finding the radius of one sector given the total wire length. Problem 2 gives expressions for the area and perimeter of a circular sector in terms of r and π. Problem 3 calculates the shaded area of an earring shape made of two circular sectors. Problems 4 and 5 involve finding areas of shaded and unshaded regions of circles and triangles.
