Moderate -0.5 This is a straightforward sector/segment problem requiring arc length to find the angle (θ = s/r = 6/5), then calculating sector area and subtracting triangle area. It involves standard formulas with no conceptual difficulty, though requires careful organization of multiple steps. Slightly easier than average due to being a routine application of well-practiced techniques.

The diagram shows a triangle \(O A B\) in which angle \(O A B = 90 ^ { \circ }\) and \(O A = 5 \mathrm {~cm}\). The arc \(A C\) is part of a circle with centre \(O\). The arc has length 6 cm and it meets \(O B\) at \(C\). Find the area of the shaded region.
