In the Discussion I will generalise a case one of which is in this question .
In ∥gmJOGC assuming JC=CG the red area is π100(∠COG−sin(2∠COG)sin2(∠COG))% of the whole circle(all the angles are measured in radians only)
Proof:
Let us denote ∠COG=α overall the proof (to make things easier to write for me)
And let JC=CG=a;OC=r
Now as JOCG is a parallelogram ∴JO∣∣CG⇒∠JOG=∠CGD
Also as the diagonal of a parallelogram bisects its vertex angles
2α=∠CGD
In △CGD :
sin(∠CGD)=sin(2α)=aCD⇒CD=asin(2α)
In △COD :
sin(α)=rCDCD=rsin(α)⇒rsin(α)=asin(2α)⇒r=asin(α)sin(2α)
Area of ∣∣gmJOGC=A1=OG×CD=a×asin(2α)=a2sin(2α)
Area of circle =A2=πr2=πa2sin2(α)sin2(2α)
Area of the sector 2π∠JOGA=2π2αA=παA=πα(πa2sin2(α)sin2(2α))=a2αsin2(α)sin2(2α)
Area of the red region =A−A1
Percentage of the area to the circles area=A2A−A1×100=(a2αsin2(α)sin2(2α)−a2sin(2α))×πa2sin2(2α)100sin2(α)=π100(α−sin(2α)sin2(α))
Bonus:I have proved it for the case when all sides of the parallelogram are equal, you can find a formula for general case quadrilateral

@Zakir Husain: "I have proved it for the case when all sides of the parallelogram are equal, you can find a formula for general case", I don't see which line have you assumed that a=asin(2α)
The proof is very elaborate and on a general case only.

@Zakir Husain, sin(α)=rCD=CDr

Improved that typing mistake!

In the second line assumed that JC=CG=a

Ohh, didn't catch that. I was just reading and cross-checking the proof
Great!
What the hell? You linked this page???
