| Topic | Radians, Arc Length and Sector Area |
| Type | Compound shape area |
| Difficulty | Moderate -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. |
