7. C X O θ B A Figure 3 Figure 3 shows the design for a sign at a bird sanctuary. The design consists of a kite OABC joined to a sector OCXA of a circle centre O. In the design • OA = OC = 0.6 m • AB = CB = 1.4 m • Angle OAB = Angle OCB = 2 radians • Angle AOC = θ radians, as shown in Figure 3 Making your method clear,

    In part (a), candidates may not be careful with the use of θ. E.g. in their working, their θ may be

    angle AOB which they correctly double to get 1.64 – condone this poor notation and give credit

    if the intention is clear.

    (a)

    M1 Attempts the cosine rule to get OB or OB2 seen in part (a) only

    A1 OB = awrt 1.74 or truncated as 1.7 or e.g. 1.73 (may be implied)

    dM1

    Attempts the sine rule with the sides and angles in the correct positions in an attempt to

    find AOB or 1/2 AOB. This must be a full attempt including using inverse sin to find

    the angle.

    This may be achieved by attempting the sine rule to find angle ABO first and then using

    the angle sum. This requires use of the sine rule with the sides and angles in the correct

    positions in an attempt to find ABO followed by
