Circle to Rectangle Proof
Cut the circle into sectors and rearrange them to find the Area!
Drag the slider to cut the circle into smaller pieces.
The Math Logic:
1. We cut the circle into 8 wedges (sectors).
2. We arranged them into a shape that looks like a rectangle.
3. The Height of this rectangle is the Radius (r).
4. The Width is half of the circle's border (π × r).
Area = Width × Height = (πr) × (r) = πr²
