Circles, arcs and sectors — practice question
The diagram illustrates shape $ABCD$, which is created from sectors of two circles with the same centre $O$. Each sector has an angle of $140^{\circ}$, $OC = 3.2\text{ cm}$ and $CB = 2.6\text{ cm}$. The area of the shape is $k\pi\text{ cm}^2$.
(main)[3]
Determine the value of $k$.
