I tried to fill a circular segment but I'm having trouble doing it. Here's my MWE:



documentclass[10pt]scrartcl
usepackagetikz
usepackagetkz-euclide
usetikzlibrarycalc,backgrounds
usetkzobjall
begindocument

begintikzpicture
tkzDefPoints0/0/C, 4/0/B
tkzDrawTriangle[pythagore](C,B)
tkzGetPointA
tkzDefCircle[circum](A,B,C)
tkzGetPointO
tkzGetLengthcr
tkzDrawCircle[R](O,cr pt)
tkzDrawPoints(O)
tkzLabelPoints[left](A)
tkzLabelPoints[right](C)
tkzLabelPoints[above left](B)
tkzLabelPoints[below](O)
tkzLabelSegment[above left](A,B)Large 6 cm
tkzLabelSegment[above right](B,C)Large 8 cm
beginscope[fill=gray, opacity=0.5]
fill[clip] (B) -- (A) arc (90:-90:1.5cm) -- cycle;
endscope
endtikzpicture

enddocument


enter image description here



I'll rotate the picture by 143 degrees.

Really easy with the calc library. Perhaps even easier with tkz-euclide if you speak French, which I don't.

(B) -- (A) arc (n1:n2:n3) -- cycle;
endscope
endtikzpicture
enddocument


enter image description here



Explanation: p1=($(A)-(O)$) means that the coordinates of p1, x1 and y1 will be the x- and y-coordinates of the vector O-A, likewise for p2 and B. Correspondingly, n1 and n2 will be the angles of A and B, respectively, and n3 the radius of the circle. These are the quantities needed to draw the arc.

                  It is simply a calculation error of half the angle AOB which measures arcsin(3/5) or about 36.8699 degrees with a radius of 2.5 cm.



                  This give:



                  fill[clip] (B) -- (A) arc (36.8699:-36.8699:2.5cm) -- cycle;


                  Full code:
