Triangles and some Trigonometry In order to calculate the triangles, a couple trigonometry functions. Sin( ) and Cos( )
ASin(A) = the side opposite of the angle over the hypotenuses. The hypotenuses is the longest side of a triangle. So we have to divide the triangles in . This is also needed to be done in order to calculate the height of the triangle. Additionally, when doing the calculation for the area of the triangle, the base needs to be multiplied by 2 in order to get the area of the triangle correct. The cos(A) would use the adjacent side, the height over the hypotenuses. Also, note, the angle A needs to be divided in half as well. So, an angle of 90 deg, the angle used with sin and cos would be 45 deg.
(h)eighthypotenusesBaseaIn the triangle There is angle A the whole angle then the angle a being used to calculate the height and base. In the example, A = 45 deg and then angle a = 22.5 deg. The sides of the angle are equal to the radius from our circle or 3.Sin(a) = Opp/Hyp Sin(22.5) = b/3 b = 3(sin(22.5))Cos(a) = Adj/Hyp Cos(22.5) = h/3 h = 3(cos(22.5))

If we could sum up all the triangles. . .
D = 6
r = 3Radius = 3Height = 2.999985881Diff of = .000014119
15
Would you agree. . .
D = 6
r = 3Radius = 3Height = 2.999985881 The sum of the base of the triangles is a good approximation of the circumference of the circle?The height of the triangle is a pretty good approximation of the radius of the circle?
16
So, if you agree This is How it works? 2r h = r2C = D * D = 2r b h = r2 C h = r2 D h = r2
17
How does it work final Steps? r2 = r2h = 2.999985881h r
D = 6
r = 3 r h = r2 r r = r2 r2 = r2
18
Ta-dah!!! r2 = r2
