OAB is a sector of a circle, centre O, radius 6 cm. AOB = 25°. Calculate the length of the arc AB.
- (a)(i)OAB is a sector of a circle, centre O, radius 6 cm. AOB = 25°. Calculate the length of the arc AB.[2]
- (a)(ii)Calculate the area of the sector OAB.[2]
- (b)(i)The sector OAB from part (a) is the cross-section of a slice of cheese. The slice has a height of 5 cm. Calculate the volume of this slice of cheese.[1]
- (b)(ii)Calculate the total surface area of this slice of cheese.[3]
- (b)(iii)Another 25° slice of cheese has 3 times the height and twice the radius. Calculate its volume.[2]
- (c)(i)A dairy produces cylindrical cheeses, each with a volume of 800 cm³. The height h cm and the radius r cm can vary. Express h in terms of r.[1]
- (c)(ii)What happens to the height if the radius is doubled?[1]
