Area of the large circle is : π R 2 = π ( 2 r ) 2 = 4 r 2 π \pi R^2 = \pi ( 2 r )^2 = 4r^2 \pi

Area of one small circle : π r 2 area of 4 small circles = 4 r 2 π \pi r^2 \implies \text { area of 4 small circles } = 4 r^2 \pi

\implies Area of large circle = Area of 4 4 small circles.

Thus, the area of one blue region = 4 π r 2 4 π r 2 4 \pi r^2 - 4 \pi r^2 + area one red region \implies

One red region = One blue region ( according to areas )

I started by supposing that the radius of the smaller circles was 1 for simplicity, the rest followed

Each region has an area of π 2 2 \dfrac{π-2}{2} square units considering the radius of the big circle to be 2 2 units.

Can you please explain more, thank you
