Question 169790: At a local shopping, a business was allowed to construct a building over a pond. concrete pillars were used to keep the building above the water line. The pond is the shape of a perfect circle and the building is a rectangle. The corners are labeled A,B,C, and D. The ratio from side AB to side BC is 4:3 and the perimeter is 280 units. The edge of the circular pond is 4 units beyond each corner of the building on the diagonal when viewed in an aerial photo. What is the are of the pond that is not covered by the building?

Question 164005: Prove that the area of a circular sector of radius r with central angle theta is , where theta is measured in radians.
The following is what I've come up with so far, am I on the right track?
I can tell that a circular sector looks similar to a triangle with an arc replacing its flat base. The area of a triangle is computed using A=1/2bh. Therefore:
h=r
b=s=r(theta)
A=(1/2)rr(theta) which is simplified to : Prove that the area of a circular sector of radius r with central angle theta is , where theta is measured in radians.
