Calculating blue inscribed half circle area.


Let the radius of the blue inscribed half circle be a.


20² = 2b²

b² = 200

b = √(200)

b = 10√(2) units.


c²+(0.5b)² = a²

c² = a²-(5√(2))²

c = √(a²-50) units.


d = a-c

d = (a-√(a²-50)) units.

d is OC.


Calculating a.


5√(2) - (a-√(a²-50))

10√(2) - 5√(2)


It implies;


½ = (a-√(a²-50))/(5√(2))


Cross Multiply.


2(a-√(a²-50)) = 5√(2)

2a-2√(a²-50) = 5√(2)

2a-5√(2) = 2√(a²-50)

(2a-5√(2))² = 4(a²-50)

4a²-20√(2)a+50 = 4a²-200

250 = 20√(2)a

a = 25/(2√(2))

a = ¼(25√(2)) units.

a = 8.8388347648 units.

Again, a is the radius of the blue inscribed half circle.


It implies;


Area blue inscribed half circle is;


½(a²)π

= ½*¼(25√(2))*¼(25√(2))π

= (625π/16) square units.

= 122.7184630309 square units.
