The radii are 2. PSQ is equilateral with sides of 4, so a height of 2*sqrt(3). Height measured from a point T which is the midpoint of PQ and where the tangents meet. The inside of the main triangle may be split into a series of 30,60, 90 triangles. APS has mid-length side of 4, so PA is 4/sqrt(3) = (4*sqrt(3))/3 and AS = (8*sqrt(3))/3. SC = PA = (4*sqrt(3))/3 Main triangle side lengths are (8*sqrt(3))/3 + (4*sqrt(3))/3 = (12*sqrt(3))/3 = 4*sqrt(3) h is square root of (48 - 12) = sqrt(36) = 6. Area is 6 * ((6*sqrt(3))/3) = (36*sqrt(3))/3 = 12*sqrt(3) un^2 Blue area is 12*sqrt(3) - 6pi Approx (12*1.732) - (6*3.1416) = 1.935 (rounded). Just looked at the video and was wondering where I went wrong. Then I checked the comments below and felt some relief.
Right on the tail end, your area calculation should result in 12sqrt(3), not 24sqrt(3). The rest up to there is good, you just forgot to divide by 2 twice. 😅 So the final answer should be 12sqrt(3)-6pi. Thank you for the video as always, though.
After finding the lenght of the radius, we know that the triangles CSQ and BPQ are congruent, because they have a right angle, a congruent acute angle and a congruent side( SQ=PQ)----> CB= 4square root of 3. And Area blu= 12square root of 3 - 6pi.
I agree as well. The expression (1/2)*(4√3)*(4√3)*(√3/2) of the area of the triangle ABC (in cm²) is correct, but that expression turns out to be 12√3. I guess this is good news: It means that PreMath is a human being.🙂 Best regards from Germany
Let's find the area: . .. ... .... ..... We start with the calculation of the radius r of the yellow semicircles: A = πr²/2 (2π)cm² = πr²/2 4cm² = r² ⇒ r = 2cm Since every pair of semicircles has exactly one point of intersection, the distances of their centers are all the same: PQ = PS = QS = r + r = 4cm It is obvious that PQ (PS, QS) is perpendicular to BC (AB, AC). Since all interior angles of the equilateral triangle ABC are 60°, the triangles APS, BPQ and CQS are congruent 30°-60°-90° triangles. So we can conclude: PQ = PS = QS = 4cm ⇒ AP = BQ = CS = 4cm/√3 ∧ AS = BP = CQ = 8cm/√3 Therefore the side length and the area of the equilateral triangle ABC turn out to be: s(ABC) = AP + BP = AS + CS = BQ + CQ = 4cm/√3 + 8cm/√3 = 12cm/√3 A(ABC) = (√3/4)*[s(ABC)]² = (√3/4)*(12cm/√3)² = (√3/4)*(144/3)cm² = (12√3)cm² Now we can calculate the size of the blue area: A(blue) = A(ABC) − 3*A(semicircle) = (12√3 − 6π)cm² ≈ 1.935cm² Best regards from Germany
It is obvious that PQ (PS, QS) is perpendicular to BC (AB, AC) but a proof is needed.The proof of angle PQB = 90 is made by constructing triangle PQE which is a right-angled triangle as QE is centre Q to point of tangency E. In triangle PQE, sin(angle EPQ) = 2/4 hence angle EPQ = 30 and then angle PQB = 180 - 60 - 30 = 90. Similarly angles APS and CSQ are proven to be 90.
@@hongningsuen1348 Thanks for your feedback and you are absolutely right. I only used symmetry considerations to derive that PQ (PS, QS) is perpendicular to BC (AB, AC). Indeed this is not enough. After obtaining the side lengths PQ=4 and EQ=2 and the angle ∠PEQ=90° it can be concluded that EPQ and therefore also BPQ are 30°-60°-90° triangles. That should have been shown first before using symmetry arguments. Best regards from Germany
I first calculated the area of the blue sector in the center (area of triangle PQS minus 3 circle sectors of 60°). The total area of the other blue parts is 2 times the area of the center blue part: 3 (1/2) + 3 (1/6) = 2. So multiply the area of the center blue sector by 3 and you have the answer.
Area of Equilateral Triangle (A) = (√3/4)a² So all the is needed is the side length of the equilateral triangle to calculate its area an subtract 6pi. Draw the line PQ, since the radius is 2 that line must have a length of 4. This line now is one side of the right triangle PQB, where the other 2 sides are parts of the sides of the given triangle. By the information provided we know, that this right triangle we just constructed must have angles of 90, 60 and 30 degrees. - We know (maybe from previous Videos on this channel) that the side lengths of an 30-60-90 Triangle have a ratio of 1:√3:2 Since PQ (the second longest side) has a length of 4, QB equals 4/√3 and PQ = 8/√3 Thus the side length = 12/√3 Therefor Area of Equilateral Triangle (A) = (√3/4)*(12/√3)² = (√3/4)*(144/3) =(√3/4)*48 = 20,785 (rounded to the 3rd decimal) => 20,785 - 6pi is the blue area. (roughly 1.935) So we do not need to fuss around with sin
SQP is equilateral triangle so reverse calculation to find PQ,PE,(QB=AP),EB and then use sqrt3/4 *( AB*AB) to find ABC triangle and minus 6pi will be answer
Blue area = area of ∆ABC minus three yellow semicircle areas. - semicircle areas: given (= 6π) - ∆ABC area : unknown - Need: ∆ABC side length x AB = BC = CA = x Semicircle S: A = πr²/2 2π = πr²/2 r² = (2/π)2π = 4 r = √4 = 2 Let M be the poont of tangency between semicircle P and CA, N be the point of tangency between semicircle Q and AB, and T be rhe point of tangency between semicircles P and Q. As ∆ABC is an equilateral triangle, ∠ABC = ∠BCA = ∠CAB = 60°. Draw MP, QN, and QP.

Interesting figure 😊, radius of semicircle are all 2 clearly, thus CS=4/sqrt(3) and CQ=4/(sqrt(3)/2)=8/sqrt(3), therefore the size of the triangle is 12/sqrt(3) and the area is 1/2 (12/sqrt(3))^2 sqrt(3)/2-6pi=1/2 144/3 sqrt(3)/2-6pi=12sqrt(3)-6pi.😊
It should have been stated in the given information that each semicircle was tangent to one of the sides. Else we need to prove it. It is not obvious from the diagram.

The introduction of point E is redundant. We can figure out AP by dividing the radius by cos30 and likewise we get PB by dividing 2 times the radius by cos30. After that you can get the side length of the triangle by adding AP and PB and the rest follows. Keep up the good work.

Once you've learned that it's an equilateral triangle its area is (length of the sides squared times √3) divided by 4, which is the same as 1/2absin60º therefore the area is 12√3 NOT 24√3!

Thank you! I was wondering, because the blue area cannot be bigger than the area of the three semicircles.

Area of triangle ABC is actually 12sqrt3, not 24sqrt3, the mistake is only the calculation
Yes, I noticed that too.
You are absolutely unforgotten I always see you both making myself free and challenged to your question.
The area of the ABC triangle is actually 12sqrt(3) not 24sqrt(3). This makes the Blue Area = 12sqrt(3) - 6Pi =1.935
i noticed that mistake too
I'm glad I finally read your comment about the correction. I checked and rechecked my math. Thank you.
The radii are 2.
PSQ is equilateral with sides of 4, so a height of 2*sqrt(3). Height measured from a point T which is the midpoint of PQ and where the tangents meet.
The inside of the main triangle may be split into a series of 30,60, 90 triangles.
APS has mid-length side of 4, so PA is 4/sqrt(3) = (4*sqrt(3))/3 and AS = (8*sqrt(3))/3.
SC = PA = (4*sqrt(3))/3
Main triangle side lengths are (8*sqrt(3))/3 + (4*sqrt(3))/3 = (12*sqrt(3))/3 = 4*sqrt(3)
h is square root of (48 - 12) = sqrt(36) = 6.
Area is 6 * ((6*sqrt(3))/3) = (36*sqrt(3))/3 = 12*sqrt(3) un^2
Blue area is 12*sqrt(3) - 6pi
Approx (12*1.732) - (6*3.1416) = 1.935 (rounded).

6(2√3-π)≈1,92
Let's find the area:
.
..
...
....
.....
We start with the calculation of the radius r of the yellow semicircles:
A = πr²/2
(2π)cm² = πr²/2
4cm² = r²
⇒ r = 2cm
Since every pair of semicircles has exactly one point of intersection, the distances of their centers are all the same:
PQ = PS = QS = r + r = 4cm
It is obvious that PQ (PS, QS) is perpendicular to BC (AB, AC). Since all interior angles of the equilateral triangle ABC are 60°, the triangles APS, BPQ and CQS are congruent 30°-60°-90° triangles. So we can conclude:
PQ = PS = QS = 4cm
⇒ AP = BQ = CS = 4cm/√3
∧ AS = BP = CQ = 8cm/√3
Therefore the side length and the area of the equilateral triangle ABC turn out to be:
s(ABC) = AP + BP = AS + CS = BQ + CQ = 4cm/√3 + 8cm/√3 = 12cm/√3
A(ABC) = (√3/4)*[s(ABC)]² = (√3/4)*(12cm/√3)² = (√3/4)*(144/3)cm² = (12√3)cm²
Now we can calculate the size of the blue area:
A(blue) = A(ABC) − 3*A(semicircle) = (12√3 − 6π)cm² ≈ 1.935cm²

Since PQ (the second longest side) has a length of 4, QB equals 4/√3 and PQ = 8/√3
Thus the side length = 12/√3
Therefor Area of Equilateral Triangle (A) = (√3/4)*(12/√3)²
= (√3/4)*(144/3)
=(√3/4)*48 = 20,785 (rounded to the 3rd decimal)
=> 20,785 - 6pi is the blue area. (roughly 1.935)

Blue area = area of ∆ABC minus three yellow semicircle areas.
- semicircle areas: given (= 6π)
- ∆ABC area : unknown

AB = BC = CA = x
Semicircle S:
A = πr²/2
2π = πr²/2
r² = (2/π)2π = 4
r = √4 = 2
Let M be the poont of tangency between semicircle P and CA, N be the point of tangency between semicircle Q and AB, and T be rhe point of tangency between semicircles P and Q.
As ∆ABC is an equilateral triangle, ∠ABC = ∠BCA = ∠CAB = 60°. Draw MP, QN, and QP. As the centers of two tangent circles and their point of tangency are colinear, and as all three semicircles are fongruent, point T is the midpoint of QP. PM = QN = PT = QT = r = 2.

√3k = 2
k = 2/√3
NB = k = 2/√3
PA = 2k = 4/√3
As QN = r, QP = 2r, and ∠PNQ = 90°, ∆PNQ is also a 30-60-90 special right triangle, and PN = √3r = 2√3.
AB = PA + PN + NB
s = 4/√3 + 2√3 + 2/√3
s = √3(4/3+2+2/3)
s = 4√3
Blue area = ∆ABC - 6π
A = bh/2 - 6π

Please check triangle EBQ, its an isosceles triangle since eq and qb is a radius of semi circle ,so it can't be right angle triangle

In the right angled triangle (BQP)
PB=y, QB=x, y=2x
x²+4²=y²
x²+16=(2x)²
4x²-x²=16
3x²=16
x=4sqrt(3)/3
