Problem 221
221

The diagram shows points A and B on a circle with centre O and radius r. The tangents to the circle at A and B meet at T. The shaded region is bounded by the minor arc AB and the lines AT and BT. Angle AOB is 2θ radians.

(i) In the case where the area of the sector AOB is the same as the area of the shaded region, show that tan θ = 2θ.

(ii) In the case where r = 8 cm and the length of the minor arc AB is 19.2 cm, find the area of the shaded region.

Problem 225
225

The diagram shows a semicircle with centre O and radius 6 cm. The radius OC is perpendicular to the diameter AB. The point D lies on AB, and DC is an arc of a circle with centre B.

(i) Calculate the length of the arc DC.

(ii) Find the value of \(\frac{\text{area of region } P}{\text{area of region } Q}\), giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
