7. The following diagram shows two semi-circles.

The larger one has centre O and


radius 4 cm. The smaller one has centre P, radius 3 cm, and passes through O.
The line (OP) meets the larger semi-circle at S. The semi-circles intersect at Q.

(a) (i) Explain why OPQ is an isosceles triangle.

OPQ
(ii) Use the cosine rule to show that cos = 9.

(iii) Hence show that sin OPQ = 9 .
(iv) Find the area of the triangle OPQ.

(b) Consider the smaller semi-circle, with centre P.



(i) Write down the size of OPQ.
(ii) Calculate the area of the sector OPQ.

(c) Consider the larger semi-circle, with centre O. Calculate the area of the
sector QOS.

(d) Hence calculate the area of the shaded region.
