What you people just couldn't understand is that gif-sease is just like gravity, all it needs is a little push.

That push came via your agitation and cringing at our noble work in denying the Science-lords control over this holy land. Be assured, we'll stop the business party as well from pollution and control over this sacred place.
I believe this thread is named : MATHS ADDMATHS STATS...................................................................................................................................................... #TellMeIfIamWrong :D :p

What's the difference between a segment of a circle and a sector of a circle???
A segment of a circle is a portion of the circle originating from the center (think about a slice of pie). A sector of a circle is formed by making a single cut anywhere across the circle.Where we use x/360 in 2pir and such it is a sector,while segment is just a straight cut anywhere.

Sector is made by 2 radius. Segment is made via a chord. Smaller sector/sector = Minor Segment (The blue and green shaded parts). Other is major segment.
