Calculating Shaded Area.

a² = 1²-(4k)²

a = √(1-16k²) units.


1 ~ √(1-16k²)

4k ~ b


Cross Multiply.


b = 4k√(1-16k²) units.


Again.


1 ~ √(1-16k²)

 √(1-16k²) ~ c


Cross Multiply.


c = (1-16k²) units.


d = 1-c

d = 1-(1-16k²)

d = 16k² units.


e = 1-b

e = (1-4k√(1-16k²)) units.


Therefore;


(5k)² = (16k²)²+(1-4k√(1-16k²))²


25k² = 256k⁴+1-8k√(1-16k²)+16k²(1-16k²)


25k² = 256k⁴+1-8k√(1-16k²)+16k²-256k⁴


9k² = 1-8k√(1-16k²)


8k√(1-16k²) = 1-9k²


64k²(1-16k²) = 1-18k²+81k⁴


64k²-1024k⁴ = 1-18k²+81k⁴


1105k⁴-82k²+1 = 0


Therefore;


k ≠ √(0.0153846) = 0.12403467257 units.


k = √(0.0588235) = 0.2425355644 units.


It implies;


5k is;

= 5*0.2425355644

= 1.21267782201 units.


4k is;

= 4*0.2425355644

= 0.97014225761 units.


cosf = 0.97014225761/1

f = 14.0363007635°


g = 90-f

g = 75.9636992365°


Therefore, the required shaded area green is;


1²-(0.5*1*0.97014225761sin14.0363007635)-(0.5*1*0.97014225761sin75.9636992365)


= 1-0.1176475-0.470588


= 0.4117645 square units.
