The diagram shows a sector POQ of a circle of radius 10 cm and centre O. Angle POQ is 2.2 radians. QR is an arc of a circle with centre P and POR is a straight line.
(i) Show that the length of PQ is 17.8 cm, correct to 3 significant figures.
(ii) Find the perimeter of the shaded region.
Solution
(i) To find the length of PQ, we use the sine rule in triangle POQ:
