\end{figure} In Figure \(2 O A B\) is a sector of a circle radius 5 m . The chord \(A B\) is 6 m long.
  1. Show that \(\cos A \hat { O } B = \frac { 7 } { 25 }\).
  2. Hence find the angle \(A \hat { O } B\) in radians, giving your answer to 3 decimal places.
  3. Calculate the area of the sector \(O A B\).
  4. Hence calculate the shaded area.
