Study Notes
Circle Area and Definitions
- The area enclosed by a circle is calculated using the formula: ( A = \pi r^2 ), where ( r ) is the radius.
- The term 'disk' refers to the entire area contained within a circle, including all points at or inside the boundary.
Area of Regular Polygons
- The area of a regular polygon can be determined using its perimeter and the distance from its center to its sides, known as the apothem.
- A regular polygon's area formula is: ( A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter} \times \text{Apothem} ).
Probability Concepts
- The probability of getting 'heads' when tossing a fair coin is ( \frac{1}{2} ) or 50%.
- Probability is a branch of mathematics that deals with calculating the likelihood of events occurring.
- The range of the probability of any event lies between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates impossibility and 1 indicates certainty.
Applications and Theoretical Descriptions
- Probability theory is widely used in various fields, including statistics, finance, science, and engineering.
- In theoretical settings, probabilities are described numerically as fractions, decimals, or percentages, reflecting the chances of an event occurring.
