Integration — practice question

In the diagram, $OADC$ is a sector of a circle with centre $O$ and radius $3\,\text{cm}$. $AB$ and $CB$ are tangents to the circle, and angle $ABC = \frac{1}{3}\pi$ radians. Find, giving your answer in terms of $\sqrt{3}$ and $\pi$,
(i)[3]

the perimeter around the shaded area.

(ii)[3]

the area enclosed by the shaded region.
