\end{figure} Figure 2 shows a plan of a patio. The patio \(P Q R S\) is in the shape of a sector of a circle with centre \(Q\) and radius 6 m . Given that the length of the straight line \(P R\) is \(6 \sqrt { } 3 \mathrm {~m}\),
  1. find the exact size of angle \(P Q R\) in radians.
  2. Show that the area of the patio \(P Q R S\) is \(12 \pi \mathrm {~m} ^ { 2 }\).
  3. Find the exact area of the triangle \(P Q R\).
  4. Find, in \(\mathrm { m } ^ { 2 }\) to 1 decimal place, the area of the segment \(P R S\).
  5. Find, in \(m\) to 1 decimal place, the perimeter of the patio \(P Q R S\).
