10. (a) Consider right-angled triangle VBO.

VB2 = VO2 + OB2 (Pyth.theorem)
VB = 122 + 62 cm

∴ Area of the sector = curved surface area of the vessel

= 252.9 cm 2 (cor. to 1 d.p.)

(b) Let  be the angle of the sector.

∵ Area of the sector = 6 180 cm2


∴    ( 180) 2 = 6 180
360
 = 161.0 (cor. to 1 d.p.)

Let (a, 0) be the coordinates of A.
OA = (a – 0) units = a units
∵OA = OB
