ANSWER:
A. Carl could divide the circle into a larger even number of congruent sectors. Then each sector would be smaller, and the approximation of the circle’s area will be closer to the actual area of the circle.
STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION :
Area of a Circle by Cutting into Sectors:
1. Cut a circle into equal sectors and the more we divided the circle up, the closer we get to being exactly right.
2.Rearrange the sectors, which resembles a parallelogram.
What are the (approximate) height and width of the parallelogram?
The height is the circle's radius.
The width (actually one "bumpy" edge) is half of the curved parts around the circle. In other words it is about half the circumference of the circle.
We know that:
Circumference = 2 × π × radius
And so the width is about:
Half the Circumference = π × radius
ow we just multply the width by the height to find the area of the rectangle:
Area = (π × radius) × (radius)
= π × radius2
Conclusion
Area of Circle = π r2
