DifficultyModerate -0.5 This is a straightforward application of standard circle sector formulas (arc length, sector area) combined with basic right-angled triangle trigonometry. Part (i) requires identifying perimeter components (arc AB + OC + CB + OA), and part (ii) involves adding sector area and triangle area with given numerical values. No novel insight or complex problem-solving required, just routine formula application, making it slightly easier than average.

Angle \(A O B = \theta\) radians and \(O C\) is perpendicular to \(O A\).
  1. Find an expression in terms of \(r\) and \(\theta\) for the perimeter of the plate.
  2. For the case where \(r = 10\) and \(\theta = \frac { 1 } { 5 } \pi\), find the area of the plate.

## Question 5:

### Part (i):

| Answer/Working | Marks | Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Arc $AB = r\theta$ | M1 | |
| $OC = r\sin\theta$ or $BC = r\cos\theta$ | M1 | oe eg $BC = r\sin\frac{\theta}{\tan\theta}$ etc |
| $r(1 + \theta + \cos\theta + \sin\theta)$ correctly derived | A1 | [3] $OC$ & $BC$ reversed loses M1A1 |

### Part (ii):

| Answer/Working | Marks | Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Sector $OAB = \frac{1}{2} \times 10^2 \times \frac{\pi}{5}$ $(= 31.42)$ | M1 | oe $\Delta$ in terms of $\pi$ and $10$ |
| $\Delta OCB = \frac{1}{2}\left(10\cos\frac{\pi}{5}\right)\left(10\sin\frac{\pi}{5}\right)$ $(= 23.78)$ | M1 | Allow $OC$ & $BC$ reversed (ie max 4/6) |
| Total area $= 55.2$ | A1 | [3] |
