Long Questions (Question 6)

Question 6:
Diagram below shows a circle PQT with centre O and radius 7 cm.

QS is a tangent to the circle at point Q and QSR is a quadrant of a circle with centre Q. Q is the midpoint of OR and QP is a chord. OQR and SOP are straight lines.
[Use π = 3.142]
Calculate
(a) angle θ, in radians,
(b) the perimeter, in cm ,of the shaded region,
(c) the area, in cm² ,of the shaded region.


Solution:
(a)
$\begin{array}{l}OQ=QR=QS=7\text{ cm}\\ \tan \theta =1\\ \theta ={45}^o\\ ={45}^o\times \frac{\pi }{{180}^o}\\ =0.7855\text{ rad}\end{array}$

(b)
$\begin{array}{l}\text{Length of arc }RS\\ =7\times \left(0.7855\times 2\right)\to \boxed{\begin{array}{l}\pi \text{ rad}={180}^o\\ {45}^o=0.7855\text{ rad}\\ {90}^o=0.7855\times \text{2 rad}\end{array}}\\ =7\times 1.571\\ =10.997\text{ cm}\\ \\ \text{Length of arc }QP\\ =7\times \left(0.7855\times 3\right)\\ =7\times 2.3565\\ =16.496\text{ cm}\\ \\ \text{Length of chord }QP\\ =\sqrt{7^2+7^2-2\left(7\right)\left(7\right)\cos {135}^o}\leftarrow \boxed{\begin{array}{l}\text{refer form 4 chapter 10}\\ \left(\text{solution of triangle}\right)\text{for cosine rule}\end{array}}\\ =\sqrt{167.30}\\ =12.934\text{ cm}\\ \\ \text{Perimeter of the shaded region}\\ =7+7+10.997+16.496+12.934\\ =54.427\text{ cm}\end{array}$

(c)
$\begin{array}{l}\text{Area of shaded region}\\ =\left(\frac{1}{2}\times 7^2\times 1.571\right)+\left(\frac{1}{2}\times 7^2\times 2.3565\right)\\ -\left(\frac{1}{2}\times 7\times 7\times \text{sin}{135}^o\right)\leftarrow \boxed{\begin{array}{l}\text{refer form 4 chapter 10}\\ \left(\text{solution of triangle}\right)\text{for area rule}\end{array}}\\ =38.4895+57.7343-17.3241\\ =78.8997{\text{ cm}}^2\end{array}$
