NO.6 anyone ?

Hello Paresh.
Q6) I)First off, were told that perimeter of shade= 1/2 circle circumference
Find radius of shade by dropping down a perpendicular so you get this in terms of r and x. Also theta here will be 2x. Radius of shade we do cosx= Adj/r , hence adj = rcosx and so side AB= 2rcosx
Also side AC is 2rcosx
So Perimeter Shade= 1/2 Circle Circumference Get arc length = rtheta = 2rcosx 2x= 4rxcosx
Arc + AB + AC= 1/2 x 2pier
4rxcosx + 2rcosx + 2rcosx= pier
Cross r
4xcosx + 4cosx = pie Notice on left hand side cosx is a common factor
So cosx(4x + 4) = pie
Cosx= pie/(4x + 4)
X = cosinverse(pie/4x+4)
Done part ii) and iii) are easy and straightforward
