Calculating area of the ascribed square.


a = (2+r) cm.

r is the radius of the circle yellow quarter circle.

a is AB, the side length of the ascribed square.


2(2+r)² = b²

b² = 2(4+4r+r²)

b = √(8+8r+2r²) cm.

b is BD.


r² = c²+(½(7))²

c² = r²-¼(49)

c² = ¼(4r²-49)

c = ½√(4r²-49) cm.


d = ½(b)

d = ½√(8+8r+2r²)


Calculating r.


It implies;


c = d


½√(4r²-49) = ½√(8+8r+2r²)


4r²-49 = 8+8r+2r²


2r²-8r-57 = 0


(r-2)² = ½(57)+(-2)²


(r-2)² = ½(57+8)


(r-2)² = ½(65)


r = 2±√(½(65))


Therefore;


r ≠ 2-√(½(65)) cm.

r = 2+√(½(65)) cm.

r = 7.7008771255 cm.

Again, r is the radius of the yellow inscribed quarter circle.


Recall.

a = (2+r) cm.

r is the radius of the circle yellow quarter circle.

a is AB, the side length of the ascribed square.

And r = 7.7008771255 cm.


It implies;


a = 2+7.7008771255

a= 9.7008771255 cm.

Again, a is AB, the side length of the ascribed square.


Area ascribed square is;



= 9.7008771255²


= 94.107017004 cm²
