Problem

An arc PQ of a circle of radius R subtends an angle θ\theta at the centre of circle. If A(θ)A(\theta) is the area bounded by the chord and the arc and B(θ)B(\theta) is the area bounded by tangent at P & Q with the arc. Find lim⁡θ→0A(θ)B(θ)\lim_{\theta \rightarrow 0} \frac{A(\theta)}{B(\theta)} .
