Let r be the radius of the inscribed circle.


Calculating r.


tan30 = r/(6-r)

√(3)r = 6-r

r = 6/(√(3)+1) cm.

r = 3(√(3)-1) cm.


sin30 = r/a

½ = 3(√(3)-1)/a

a = 6(√(3)-1) cm.

Where a is BO, O is the center of the inscribed circle.


BP = 6(√(3)-1)-r

BP = 6√(3)-6-3√(3)+3

BP = 3√(3)-3

BP = 3(√(3)-1) cm.


cos30 = 6/(BH)

BH = 12/√(3)

BH = 4√(3) cm.


PH = BH-BP

PH = 4√(3)-3√(3)+3

PH = (√(3)+3) cm.


tan30 = (DH)/6

DH = 6/√(3)

DH = 2√(3) cm 


HR = 2√(3)-3√(3)+3

HR = (3-√(3)) cm.


(PR)² = (√(3)+3)²+(3-√(3))²-2(3-√(3))(√(3)+3)cos60

PR = 4.24264068712 cm.


(4.24264068712/sin60) = ((3-√(3))/sinb)

b = 15°

Where b is angle HPR.


c = 180-(180-15-15)

c = 180-150

c = 30°

Where c is angle QOR, O is the centre of the inscribed circle.


Therefore shaded region, triangle PQR is;


0.5*4.24264068712*2(3√(3)-3)sin15

= 2.41154273188 cm²
