In a circle of radius 10 cm10\,\text{cm}, a chord PQPQ of length 16 cm16\,\text{cm} is drawn. (i) Find the magnitude of the angle POQPOQ subtended by the chord at the centre. (ii) Determine the area of the minor segment cut off by chord PQPQ. (iii) Calculate the perimeter of the minor segment, taking π=3.14\pi = 3.14. (iv) Obtain the area of the corresponding major segment.
