Problem 183
183
In the diagram, AC is an arc of a circle, centre O and radius 6 cm. The line BC is perpendicular to OC and OAB is a straight line. Angle AOC = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi\) radians. Find the area of the shaded region, giving your answer in terms of \(\pi\) and \(\sqrt{3}\).
Solution
First, find the length of BC using the tangent of angle 60 degrees (\(\frac{\pi}{3}\) radians):
