The figure shows a semicircle inside a right triangle ABC at C . the semi-circle has its diameter on the hypotenuse AB and the lines AC and BC are tangential to the semicircle , the angle CAB = . AB = 30 Units. If the area Inside The Triangle ABC and outside the semicircle is A , Then
= ?
Hint : The first step is to find the radius of The Semicircle.

from the figure let O be the centre of the semicircle . connect OC .length Of AC = 15√3 , BC = 15 . Angle COB = 75 Degrees .
let the coordinates of A be ( 0,0) and B = (30,0) then C = ( 22.5,7.5√3). and let the coordinates of O = (a,0).
Then the slope of CO = tan75 = 2 + √3 = 2 2 . 5 − a 7 . 5 √ 3 , then a = 3 4 5 ( 3 − √ 3 ) = 15(3 - √3).
The equations of the lines AC and HO are :
Y = √ 3 x , y = -√3(x-a) respectively , Solving simultaneously the coordinates of H = (x,y) in terms of a can be ;
The coordinats of H = ( 4 3 a , 4 √ 3 a )
and O = (a,0).
Then OH = R = √ ( 1 6 a 2 + 1 6 3 a 2 ) = 2 a = 2 1 5 ( 3 − √ 3 )
Then :
A = (15²√3)/2 – π/2 ( 15/2)² (3 - √3)² , 4A = (15)²(2√3 - 6π + 3√3).
ANSWER = 15² = 225.
