As shown above, there is a half circle whose diameter is segment and radius is .
Let be on the half circle.
A line segment that has midpoints of chord and arc as its ends is circle 's diameter. Similarly, a line segment that has midpoints of chord and arc as its ends is circle 's diameter.

Like the picture above, let Q, R be midpoints of AP , BP respectively.
Also, AP , BP and AB contact with circle O at S, T, H respectively.
Midpoint of AB is C .
Radii of O , O 1 and O 2 are r , r 1 and r 2 respectively.
Let PQ = a and PR = b .
.
Since CQ = PR and CR = PQ ,
r 1 = 2 5 − b , r 2 = 2 5 − a .
.
Meanwhile, since AS = AH and BT = BH ,
( 2 a − r ) + ( 2 b − r ) = 5 × 2 ;
r = a + b − 5 .
.
The sum of the areas of O , O 1 and O 2 is equal to:
π { ( 2 5 − b ) 2 + ( 2 5 − a ) 2 + ( a + b − 5 ) 2 } ⋯ [ A ]
Let a + b = t ( 5 < t ≤ 5 2 ) , and the expression [ A ] is equal to:
π ( 4 a 2 + b 2 − 1 0 ( a + b ) + 5 0 + ( t − 5 ) 2 ) = π ( 4 7 5 − 1 0 t + t 2 − 1 0 t + 2 5 ) ( ∵ a 2 + b 2 = CP 2 = 2 5 ) = π ( t 2 − 2 2 5 t + 4 1 7 5 ) = π ( t − 4 2 5 ) 2 + 1 6 7 5 π
Therefore, S = 1 6 7 5 π .
π 1 4 4 S = 1 4 4 × 1 6 7 5 = 6 7 5 .
