4MA0 Higher January 2016 Paper 3R Q10
10 The diagram shows a circle with centre \(O\).
The points \(A\), \(B\) and \(C\) lie on the circle.
Angle \(AOB = 96^\circ\)

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
(a) Work out the size of angle \(ACB\). (1)
\(AB = 16\) cm
(b) Work out the radius of the circle.
Give your answer correct to 3 significant figures. (4)

Notes
M1: For an expression involving \(r\) or \(r^2\)
Implies first M1
M1: For a correct expression for \(r\)
A1: awrt 10.8
