    C2 - Radian Qs
    May I please have help with these questions? (I know, I'm probably in the forum pretty much every day...)

ID:	137552 I have to calculate the area of the shaded region.
    I figured out L:
    L=rθ
    =3.6(2/3π)
    =12/5π=BC

    2.) An arc subtends an angle of 0.25 radians at the circumference of a circle, centre O and radius 6cm. Calculate the area of the minor sector OAB.

    With this, I just have difficulty visualising the diagram.

    (Sector area) / (circle area [r*r*pi]) = (angle of sector) / (complete angle [2pi])
