    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.
