 Circular sector

A circular sector is the portion of a disc between two radii and the connecting circle arc. If its radius is $R$ and its central angle is $\theta$ radians, its area isIndeed, polar coordinates give $A={\int }_0^{\theta }{\int }_0^{R}rdrd\varphi$. The full disc corresponds to $\theta =2\pi$, a semicircle to $\theta =\pi$, and a quarter-disc to $\theta =\pi /2$. In a solid with horizontal sector cross-sections, radius $R(z)$ and angle $\theta (z)$, its volume is $\frac{1}{2}\int \theta (z)R(z{)}^{2}dz$. Holding the angles and heights fixed while scaling every radius by a factor $s$ scales that volume by $s^2$.
