Sir Mike Ambrose is the author of the question.


Calculating exactly, hatched area ÷ orange area.


Let the ascribed square side length be 2 units.


Therefore, r, radius of the inscribed half circle is 1 unit.


a = (b+1) units.

b is the height of the inscribed orange area.


tanc = 2/1

c = atan(2)°


d = 180-2c

d = 180-2atan(2)

d = 2atan(½)°


Calculating b.


cosd = 1/(b+1)

cos(2atan(½)) = 1/(b+1)

⅗ = 1/(b+1)

3b+3 = 5

b = ⅔ units.

Again, b is the height of the inscribed orange area (trapezoid).


tand = e/1

tan(2atan(½)) = e/1

e = 4/3 units.


Or 


e² = (1+(⅔))²-1²

e = 4/3 units.


Hatched Area is;


(½*(4/3)*1)-((2atan(½))π/360)


= ⅔-((atan(0.5))π/180)


= (120-atan(0.5)π)/180 square units.


= 0.20301905767 square units.


Calculating Orange Area.


f = 2-e

f = 2-(4/3)

f = ⅔ units.


cosd = f/g

cos(2atan(0.5)) = (⅔)/g

⅗ = 2/(3g)

9g = 10

g = 10/9 units.


Therefore, orange area is;


½((10/9)+2))*(⅔)


= ½*(28/9)*(⅔)


= 28/27 square units.


It implies, exactly, hatched area ÷ orange area is;



((120-atan(0.5)π)/180)÷(28/27)


= 27(120-atan(0.5)π)/(180*28)


= (360-3atan(0.5)π)/560 


= 0.19576837703
