Answer
Step-by-step solution
5 stepsDefine the areas involved.
Let be the radius of the semicircle.
The angle radians.
Since PQ is the diameter, radians.
Therefore, radians.Calculate the area of sector ROQ.
The formula for the area of a sector is , where is the angle in radians.
Calculate the area of the unshaded segment PR.
The area of segment PR is the area of sector POR minus the area of triangle POR.
The area of triangle POR is .
Since , and :So, the area of segment PR is:
Use the given condition to form an equation.
The problem states that the area of sector ROQ is equal to twice the area of the unshaded segment PR.
Substitute the expressions from Step 2 and Step 3:
Simplify the equation.
Divide both sides by (assuming ):
Multiply the entire equation by 2:
Distribute the 2 on the right side:
Add to both sides:
Factor out 2 from the right side:
