In the above figure, A B C D is a square and circle with centre O is inscribed. In the corner, there is a rectangle A E F G with A G = 1 0 unit and A E = 2 0 unit is inscribed. Find the area of circle.
Give your answer to 4 decimal places.

R=10 is not possible since in the original equation it does not satisfy original equation (the one before squaring).

Both rectangles AEFG and ABNM are similar ( A G A E = A M A B ) hence AF extended will meet the circle at N (A-F-N colinear).
Triangles AGF and AFM are similar right angled triangles ∠ A F G = ∠ A N M = ∠ F M A = θ
sin θ = A F A G = A M A F
Hence, 5 1 = R 1 0 5 and R = 50
Let R = radius of the circle. Then there will be eight points like F on the circle. Take the one shown with coordinates F = (-R+20, R-10) with center O as the origin.
( − R + 2 0 ) 2 + ( R − 1 0 ) 2 = R 2
R 2 − 6 0 R + 5 0 0 = 0 giving R = 10 or 50. R= 10 too gives an interesting solution! In that case, the rectangle AEFG overlaps the circle and F is the midpoint of the right edge of the square.
But the one we need is R = 50 giving the area to be 5 0 2 π = 7 8 5 3 . 9 8
A G = E F = 1 0 , A G = A E = 2 0
Let r be the radius of the circle.
O F 2 = r 2 r 2 r 2 r 2 0 0 0 = ( r − E F ) 2 + ( r − G F ) 2 = ( r − A G ) 2 + ( r − A E ) 2 = ( r − 1 0 ) 2 + ( r − 2 0 ) 2 = r 2 − 2 0 r + 1 0 0 + r 2 − 4 0 r + 4 0 0 = 2 r 2 − 6 0 r + 5 0 0 − r 2 = r 2 − 6 0 r + 5 0 0 = ( r − 1 0 ) ( r − 5 0 ) r = 1 0 ∗ or r = 5 0 * not available because smaller than AE
A r e a = π r 2 = π 5 0 2 = 7 8 5 3 . 9 8 1 6
Let 20=rcosx and 10=r(1-sinx). Now we have cosx=2(1-sinx). Simplifying yields 2sinx+cosx=2. Let cosx=sqrt(1-x^2), where x=sinx, a quadratic can be solved, yielding sinx=4/5. Now 10=r/5 and r=50, hence area is 2500pi.
It's best to define the variables when you first use the. Otherwise, you're making others guess what you mean, and it's not always clear what the angle has to be.
