Diagram NOT accurately drawn
The diagram shows a sector \(OAB\) of a circle, centre \(O\).
Angle \(AOB = 75^\circ\)
Length of arc \(AB = 7.2\) cm
Calculate the area of the sector.
Give your answer correct to 3 significant figures.

Notes
M1: for a correct equation linking the angle and arc length
NB: 0.208(3… ) may be used in place of \(\dfrac{75}{360}\)
or 4.8 in place of \(\dfrac{360}{75}\)
M1: for a complete method to find the radius or diameter.
M1: dep on previous M1
A1: for answer in range 19.8 – 19.82
