TopicRadians, Arc Length and Sector Area
TypeCompound shape area
DifficultyModerate -0.3 This is a standard P1 compound shape problem requiring arc length formula, basic trigonometry to find an angle, and area calculation by decomposing into a sector and trapezium. Part (a) is scaffolded ('show that'), and all techniques are routine applications of formulae. Slightly easier than average due to the structured guidance and straightforward geometry.
Spec1.05d Radians: arc length s=r*theta and sector area A=1/2 r^2 theta

  • \(O A\) and \(C D\) are perpendicular to \(O D\)
  • \(A B\) is an arc of the circle with centre \(O\) and radius 4 metres
