The circle

imagen

The perimeter of the circle is: P=2πr

The area of the circle is: A=πr2

Using proportions it is possible to find the area of a circular sector and the length of the arc: AsectorAcercle=Asectorπr2=βdegrees360Isectorperimetre=Isector2πr=βdegrees360

The same proportion can be used with β in radians and changing 360 for 2π.
