    Joey is making a party hat in the form of a cone. The hat is made from a sector, AOB, of a circular piece of paper with a radius of 18 cm and AOB = θ as shown in the diagram. To make the hat, sides [OA] and [OB] are joined together. The hat has a base radius of 6.5 cm.

    1.

    Write down the perimeter of the base of the hat in terms of π.

    Solution

    13π13 \pi13π cm (A1) Note: Answer must be in terms of π\piπ.

    2.

    Find the value of θ.

    Solution

    METHOD 1 θ360×2π(18)=13π\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2 \pi(18)=13 \pi360θ​×2π(18)=13π OR θ360×2π(18)=40.8407...\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2 \pi(18)=40.8407 ...360θ​×2π(18)=40.8407... (M1) Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into length of an arc formula. (θ=)130∘(\theta=) 130^{\circ}(θ=)130∘ (A1)

    METHOD 2 θ360×π×182=π×6.5×18\frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi \times 18^{2}=\pi \times 6.5 \times 18360θ​×π×182=π×6.5×18 (θ=)130(\theta=) 130(θ=)130 (A1)

    3.

    Find the surface area of the outside of the hat.

    Solution

    EITHER 130360×π(18)2\frac{130}{360} \times \pi(18)^{2}360130​×π(18)2 Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into area of a sector formula. OR π(6.5)(18)\pi(6.5)(18)π(6.5)(18) Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution into curved area of a cone formula.

    THEN (Area === ) 368 cm2^22 (367.566..., 117π117\pi117π) (A1) Note: Allow FTFTFT from their part (a)(ii) even if their angle is not obtuse.
