  1. On the diagram above, complete the sketch of \(C _ { 2 }\) 14
  2. Show that the area of the region shaded in the diagram is equal to $$k \pi + m \alpha - \sin 2 \alpha + q \sin 4 \alpha$$ where \(\alpha = \sin ^ { - 1 } \left( \frac { \sqrt { 5 } - 1 } { 2 } \right)\), and \(k , m\) and \(q\) are rational numbers.
