Here's how to solve the problem:

Part a· 3 steps

Calculate the length of the arc ABC.

  1. Write the formula for the length of an arc.

    The length of an arc LL is given by the formula:

    L=θ360∘×2πrL = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times 2\pi r

    where θ\theta is the angle of the sector and rr is the radius.

  2. Substitute the given values into the formula.

    Given θ=150∘\theta = 150^\circ and r=12r = 12 cm.

    L=150∘360∘×2π(12)L = \frac{150^\circ}{360^\circ} \times 2\pi (12)
  3. Simplify the expression.

    L=150360×24πL = \frac{150}{360} \times 24\pi L=512×24πL = \frac{5}{12} \times 24\pi L=5×2πL = 5 \times 2\pi L=10πL = 10\pi

    The length of the arc ABC is 10\picm\boxed{\text{10\pi cm}}.

Part b· 3 steps

Calculate the area of the sector OABC.

  1. Write the formula for the area of a sector.

    The area of a sector AA is given by the formula:

    A=θ360∘×πr2A = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2

    where θ\theta is the angle of the sector and rr is the radius.

  2. Substitute the given values into the formula.

    Given θ=150∘\theta = 150^\circ and r=12r = 12 cm.

    A=150∘360∘×π(12)2A = \frac{150^\circ}{360^\circ} \times \pi (12)^2
  3. Simplify the expression.

    A=150360×π(144)A = \frac{150}{360} \times \pi (144) A=512×144πA = \frac{5}{12} \times 144\pi A=5×12πA = 5 \times 12\pi A=60πA = 60\pi

    The area of the sector OABC is 60\picm2\boxed{\text{60\pi cm}^2}.
