Problem
A circular pond has radius 8 m. A chord drawn across the pond subtends an angle of 120° at the centre.
(i) Calculate the length of the arc that forms the minor segment. Take π=3.14.
(ii) Hence find the perimeter of the minor segment (arc length + chord length), correct to two decimal places.
(iii) Determine the area of the minor segment, correct to two decimal places.
