(a) (i) Without using a calculator, express the complex number \(\frac{2 + 6i}{1 - 2i}\) in the form \(x + iy\), where \(x\) and \(y\) are real.

(ii) Hence, without using a calculator, express \(\frac{2 + 6i}{1 - 2i}\) in the form \(r(\cos \theta + i \sin \theta)\), where \(r > 0\) and \(-\pi < \theta \leq \pi\), giving the exact values of \(r\) and \(\theta\).

(b) On a sketch of an Argand diagram, shade the region whose points represent complex numbers \(z\) satisfying both the inequalities \(|z - 3i| \leq 1\) and \(\text{Re } z \leq 0\), where \(\text{Re } z\) denotes the real part of \(z\). Find the greatest value of \(\arg z\) for points in this region, giving your answer in radians correct to 2 decimal places.
