The track of a high-precision robot follows a straight line l1l_1l1​ with equation x+4y=32x + 4y = 32x+4y=32. The line l1l_1l1​ intersects the yyy-axis at the point CCC.

a.

State the yyy-coordinate of CCC.

[1]
b.

The point D(8,6)D(8, 6)D(8,6) lies on l1l_1l1​. The line l2l_2l2​ passes through DDD and is perpendicular to l1l_1l1​. The line l2l_2l2​ intersects the yyy-axis at the point EEE.

Show that the yyy-coordinate of EEE is −26-26−26.

c.

A circular cleaning region BCEBCEBCE, which is a sector of a circle with centre CCC, is used by the robot. Given that angle BCEBCEBCE is 0.80.80.8 radians,

find the length of the arc BEBEBE.

[2]
d.

The total operational area CBEDCBEDCBED consists of the sector BCEBCEBCE joined to the triangle CDECDECDE.

Calculate the exact area of the region CBEDCBEDCBED.
