Circles, arcs and sectors — practice question

$OAB$ forms a sector of a circle with centre $O$ and radius $10\text{ cm}$. $\angle AOB=72^\circ$.
(a)[3]

Calculate the perimeter of sector $OAB$.

(b(i))[2]

Calculate the area of sector $OAB$.

(b(ii))[3]

Calculate the total shaded area.

(c)[4]

$D$ lies on the arc $AB$ such that $\angle AOD: \angle DOB = 1:2$. Gavin states that the shaded area in this diagram is the same as the shaded area found in part $b(ii)$. Is he correct? Show your working.
