Need help with this question:



The diagram shows that the cross section ABCD of a glass prism. AD = BC = 4cm and both are at right angles to DC. AB is the arc of a circle, centre O and radius 6cm. Given that angle AOB = 2 radians and that the perimeter of the cross-section is 2(7 + pi), show that (2θ + 2sinθ - 1) = pi/3.



Here is a (bad) diagram of the thing:



enter image description here



What I did so far: I worked out AB arc length = 12θ and I was going to use the cosine rule to work out the direct straight length of AB to find out what CD was, but I don't see how the sin comes into play.
