Lens (geometry)
In 2-dimensional geometry, a lens is a convex region bounded by two circular arcs joined to each other at their endpoints. In order for this shape to be convex, both arcs must bow outwards (convex-convex). This shape can be formed as the intersection of two circular disks. It can also be formed as the union of two circular segments (regions between the chord of a circle and the circle itself), joined along a common chord. Types If the two arcs of a lens have equal radius, it is called a symmetric lens, otherwise is an asymmetric lens. The vesica piscis is one form of a symmetric lens, formed by arcs of two circles whose centers each lie on the opposite arc. The arcs meet at angles of 120° at their endpoints. Area ;Symmetric The area of a symmetric lens can be expressed in terms of the radius ''R'' and arc lengths ''θ'' in radians: :A = R^2\left(\theta - \sin \theta \right). ;Asymmetric The area of an asymmetric lens formed from circles of radii ''R'' and ''r'' with ...
