To find the area of a segment of a circle, we need to know the radius and the angle subtended by the segment at the center of the circle. We can use the formula:
main.py41 chars2 lines
Where r is the radius of the circle and theta is the angle subtended by the segment at the center of the circle, in radians.
Here's the Python code to implement this formula:
main.py107 chars6 lines
We can use this function like this:
main.py73 chars5 lines
This means that the area of a segment of a circle with radius 5 and angle subtended by the segment at the center of the circle of 60 degrees is approximately 7.6796 square units.
