In the diagram, OABCDEFG is a rectangular block in which OA = OD = 6 cm and AB = 12 cm. The unit vectors i, j and k are parallel to \(\overrightarrow{OA}\), \(\overrightarrow{OC}\) and \(\overrightarrow{OD}\) respectively. The point P is the mid-point of DG, Q is the centre of the square face CBFG and R lies on AB such that AR = 4 cm.
(i) Express each of the vectors \(\overrightarrow{PQ}\) and \(\overrightarrow{RQ}\) in terms of i, j and k.
(ii) Use a scalar product to find angle RQP.
