Sir Beg is the author of the question.

Let the square side length be 1 unit.


1² = 2a²

a = √(1/2)

a = ½√(2) units.

a is AD = CD.


Let the radius of the inscribed circle be b.


Therefore;


c² = 2b²

c = √(2)b cm.


d² = 2(1)²

d = √(2) units.

d is the diagonal of the square.


Calculating b, radius of the inscribed circle.


a+b+c = d

½√(2)+b+√(2)b = √(2)

(1+√(2))b = ½√(2)

b = ½√(2)/(1+√(2))

b = (½√(2)-1)/(-1)

b = ½(2-√(2)) units.

b = 0.2928932188 units.

Again, b is the radius of the inscribed circle.


e = 1- ½√(2)

e = ½(2-√(2)) units.


Therefore;


Area ABD is;

½*½(2-√(2))*½√(2)

= ⅛(2√(2)-2)

= ¼(√(2)-1) square units.


Area ACD is;

½(½√(2))²

= ⅛*2

= ¼ units.


It implies;


Area ABD ÷ Area ACD is;

¼(√(2)-1) ÷ ¼

= (√(2)-1)

= 0.4142135624
