A designer is creating a specialized acoustic panel. The panel ABCDA ABCDA\,ABCDA consists of a major sector ACBA ACBA\,ACBA of a circle with centre C C\,C and radius 10 cm, and a triangular region ACDACDACD, as shown in the geometry below. The point D D\,D lies on the radius CBCBCB. The radius of the circle is 10 cm, the length of AD AD\,AD is 9 cm and the angle ACD ACD\,ACD is 0.8 radians0.8\text{ radians}0.8 radians.

a.

Find the area of the major sector ACBAACBAACBA, giving your answer to one decimal place.
