a = 15+5

a = 20 units.

a is the radius of the circle.


d² = b²+c² --- (1).

Where b is the width of the inscribed blue rectangle area and c is the length.


15²+20² = d²

d = 25 units.

d is the diagonal of the inscribed blue rectangle.


Substituting d is (1) making c the subject formula.


d² = b²+c²

25² = b²+c²

c = √(625-b²) units.


e = d+b

e = (25+b) units.


f = 2a

f = 40 units.


Calculating b.


40² = √(625-b²)²+(25+b)²

1600 = 625-b²+625+50b+b²

1600 = 1250+50b

160 = 125+5b

5b = 35

b = 7 units.

Again, b is the width of the inscribed blue rectangle.


Recall.


c = √(625-b²)

And b = 7 units.

c = √(625-49)

c = √(576)

c = 24 units.

Again, c is the length of the inscribed blue rectangle.


Area inscribed blue rectangle is;


bc

= 7*24

= 168 square units.
