Circular Measure: Arc Lengths and Sector Properties

Circular Measure: Arc Lengths and Sector Properties

TGM Original

The points \(P\) and \(Q\) lie on the circumference of a circle with centre \(O\).
The area of the circle is \(121\pi\) cm\({}^2\).
The length of the major arc \(PQ\) is \(16.5\pi\) cm.
Calculate

  1. the radius of the circle,
  2. the length of the minor arc \(PQ\), giving your answer in terms of \(\pi\),
  3. the angle \(POQ\) subtended by the minor arc \(PQ\).
