3. The circle has radius 6 cm and centre O. AB is a chord and angle AOB = 1.2
radians.
Find:
a) the area of sector AOB
b) the area of triangle AOB
c) the area of the shaded segment [3]
4. The diagram shows a sector, POQ, of a circle, centre O, with radius 4 cm.
The length of arc PQ is 7 cm. The lines PX and QX are tangents to the circle at
P and Q, respectively.
a) Find angle POQ, in radians.
b) Find the length of PX .
c) Find the area of the shaded region. [3]
5. The diagram shows two circles with radius r cm. The centre of each circle
lies on the circumference of the other circle. Find, in terms of r, the exact area
of the shaded region. [3]
