In the diagram, AB is an arc of a circle, centre O and radius 6 cm, and angle AOB = \(\frac{1}{3} \pi\) radians. The line AX is a tangent to the circle at A, and OBX is a straight line.
- Show that the exact length of AX is \(6 \sqrt{3}\) cm.
- Find, in terms of \(\pi\) and \(\sqrt{3}\),
- the area of the shaded region,
- the perimeter of the shaded region.
