(i) The diagram shows part of the curve \(y = 11 - x^2\) and part of the straight line \(y = 5 - x\) meeting at the point \(A (p, q)\), where \(p\) and \(q\) are positive constants. Find the values of \(p\) and \(q\).

(ii) The function \(f\) is defined for the domain \(x \geq 0\) by

\(f(x) = \begin{cases} 11 - x^2 & \text{for } 0 \leq x \leq p, \\ 5 - x & \text{for } x > p. \end{cases}\)

Express \(f^{-1}(x)\) in a similar way.
