| Topic | Radians, Arc Length and Sector Area |
| Type | Tangent and sector - two tangents from external point |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a standard tangent-sector problem requiring routine application of arc length, tangent properties, and area formulas. Part (i) involves expressing AT in terms of r and θ using tan θ, then adding arc length. Part (ii) requires calculating area by subtracting triangle from sector. While multi-step, it follows a well-established template with no novel insight required, making it slightly easier than average. |

The diagram shows a circle with centre $O$ and radius $r \mathrm {~cm}$. Points $A$ and $B$ lie on the circle and angle $A O B = 2 \theta$ radians. The tangents to the circle at $A$ and $B$ meet at $T$.\\
(i) Express the perimeter of the shaded region in terms of $r$ and $\theta$.\\
(ii) In the case where $r = 5$ and $\theta = 1.2$, find the area of the shaded region.\\
