6 The diagram shows a triangle \(A B C\). The lengths of \(A B , B C\) and \(A C\) are \(8 \mathrm {~cm} , 5 \mathrm {~cm}\) and 9 cm respectively.
Angle \(B A C\) is \(\theta\) radians.
  1. Show that \(\theta = 0.586\), correct to three significant figures.
  2. Find the area of triangle \(A B C\), giving your answer, in \(\mathrm { cm } ^ { 2 }\), to three significant figures.
  3. A circular sector, centre \(A\) and radius \(r \mathrm {~cm}\), is removed from triangle \(A B C\). The remaining shape is shown shaded in the diagram below.
