| Topic | Radians, Arc Length and Sector Area |
| Type | Compound shape area |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a straightforward compound shape problem requiring application of standard sector area and arc length formulas. Part (a) uses angle properties (angles on a straight line), part (b) involves adding three sector areas with given radii, and part (c) requires calculating arc lengths. All steps are routine with no novel insight required, making it slightly easier than average. |
| Spec | 1.05d Radians: arc length s=r*theta and sector area A=1/2 r^2 theta1.08e Area between curve and x-axis: using definite integrals |

| Area \(= 2 \times \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\left(\dfrac{\pi-\theta}{2}\right) + \dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta\) | M1 | Fully correct strategy using angle from (a). Need \(2\times\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\alpha\) or \(r^2\alpha\) where \(\alpha\) is their angle from (a), \(+ \dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta\) |
| \(= \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi - \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta + 2r^2\theta = \dfrac{3}{2}r^2\theta + \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi = \dfrac{1}{2}r^2(3\theta+\pi)\)* | A1* | Correct proof. Brackets in \(\dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta\) may be condoned if recovered. First term must be expanded as \(\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi - \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta\) |

| Answer | Mark | Guidance |
|--------|------|----------|
| Angle $AOB = \dfrac{\pi - \theta}{2}$ | B1 | Deduces correct expression for angle $AOB$. Note $\dfrac{180-\theta}{2}$ scores B0 |
### Part (b):
| Answer | Mark | Guidance |
|--------|------|----------|
| Area $= 2 \times \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\left(\dfrac{\pi-\theta}{2}\right) + \dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta$ | M1 | Fully correct strategy using angle from (a). Need $2\times\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\alpha$ or $r^2\alpha$ where $\alpha$ is their angle from (a), $+ \dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta$ |
| $= \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi - \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta + 2r^2\theta = \dfrac{3}{2}r^2\theta + \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi = \dfrac{1}{2}r^2(3\theta+\pi)$* | A1* | Correct proof. Brackets in $\dfrac{1}{2}(2r)^2\theta$ may be condoned if recovered. First term must be expanded as $\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\pi - \dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta$ |
### Part (c):
