The diagram shows a circle with centre O and a chord AB. The radius of the circle is 12 cm and angle AOB is 1.4 radians. [Figure showing a circle with centre O, radius 12cm, chord AB, angle AOB = 1.4 rad, shaded region is the major segment]
- (i)Find the perimeter of the shaded region.[5]
- (ii)Find the area of the shaded region.[4]

Mark scheme
Marking points from the official mark scheme (Oct/Nov 2013). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.
- [M1] AB² =12²+12²–2×12×12×cos 1.4 AB = 2x12 sin 0.7 (May be implied)
- [A1] 15.4 to 15.5
- [B1] θ = 2π – 1.4(= 4.88) May be implied
- [M1] Use s = rθ(=58.6) 12x4.9 or better oe
- [A1] 74.1
- [M1] (Sector) = ½×12²×(2π−1.4)(=352) or May be implied. π×12² - ½×12²×1.4
- [M1] (Triangle) = ½×12×12×sin1.4(= 70.9 or 71)
- [M1] Area of major sector + Area of triangle May be implied
- [A1] 422 or 423
