Area of a circle order to arrive at the formula for the area of a disk. Consider unwrapping the concentric circles to straight strips. This will form a right angled triangle with r as its height and 2r (being the outer slice of onion) as its base. Finding the area of this triangle will give the area of the disk The opposite and adjacent angles for this triangle are respectively in degrees 9.0430611..., 80.956939... and in radians 0.1578311... , 1.4129651... Explicitly, we imagine dividing up a circle into triangles, each with a height equal to the circle's radius and a base that is infinitesimally
Fife Circle Line line from Inverkeithing that loops back round to Kirkcaldy by an inland route via Cowdenbeath through the old Fife coalfield. Narrowly speaking, just this line could be called the Fife Circle. The current service is actually a combination of two previously separate local routes - Edinburgh to Kirkcaldy & Edinburgh to & . During the 1970s & 80s British Rail only ran a regular daytime service on the Dunfermline line as far as Cowdenbeath; & Cardenden were only served during the weekday business peaks (as can be seen from Table 242 of the UK All Line timetable of that era),
