A golf course has a sprinkler system that waters the grass in the shape of a sector, as shown in the diagram below. 
 

A sprinkler is positioned at point \(L\) and can turn through an angle of 100°.

The section of grass that is watered is 4.5 m wide at all points.

Water can reach a maximum of 12 m from the sprinkler at \(L\).

What is the area of grass that this sprinkler will water?
