Area of Sectors and Segments WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Problem-solving at its best! This challenging worksheet is aimed at KS4 students working towards grades 7, 8 and 9. We have created two versions, one with a few clues to point your learners in the right direction.

Here students will find the shaded area of different shapes with the help of sectors and segments. Knowledge and use of 1⁄2abSinC will come in very handy for your learners. Take a look at the preview to see how wonderfully complex some of our designs are.

All answers are to be rounded to 3 significant figures.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.

Frequently Asked Questions

Students should be confident with finding the area of a triangle using ½absinC, as this formula is essential for tackling the more complex problems presented. They'll also need to be comfortable using the formulae for area of a circle and sectors, as these form the foundation for calculating areas of segments and composite shapes.
