Figure 3 shows a sketch of the outline of the face of a ceiling fan viewed from below.​​ 

The fan consists of three identical sections congruent to OABCDO, shown in Figure 3, where​​ 

  • OABO is a sector of a circle with centre O and radius 9 cm​​ 

  • OBCDO is a sector of a circle with centre O and radius 84cm​​ 

  • angle​​ AOD =2π3​​ radians​​ 

Given that the length of the arc AB is 15 cm,​​ 

  • show that the length of the arc CD is 35.9cm to one decimal place.​​ 

(3)

The face of the fan is modelled to be a flat​​ surface.​​ 

Find, according to the model,​​ 

  • the perimeter of the face of the fan, giving your answer to the nearest cm,​​ 

(2)​​ 

  • the surface area of the face of the fan.​​ 

Give your answer to 3 significant figures and make your units clear.​​

SOLUTION​​ 

a- Considering sector AOB

l=rθ

15=9AOB

<AOB=159

<AOB=53 

So the angle COD is​​ 

<COD=2π3-53

<COD=2π-53

So the arc length CD can be found using the arc length formula once again.​​ 

lCD=rθ

=84 x2π-53

=35.929

lCD=35.9 cm  

b-​​ 

P=3lCD+2lAB+6(BC)

P=3(35.929)+3(15)+6(84-9)

P=3(35.929)+3(15)+6(75)

P=602.787

P=603 cm
