First define the region. Drawing a sketch chould help.
16 sin*theta = 4 when
theta = arcsin 1/4
which cporresponds to 14.48 degrees and 165.52 degrees
Your region is the area bounded by 16 sin(theta) on the outside and r = 4 on the inside. The outer curve is called a cardioid, as I recall. There is a fomula for the arc length of a cardioid at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardioid
The length of the circular arc is trivial. You will need to keep theta in radians.
