A circle is inscribed in a quarter-circle sector. It is tangent to the arc of the sector and the two perpendicular radii of the sector. What is the ratio of the area of the inscribed circle to the area of the sector?

Hello Guest!

 

\(a=r+r\sqrt{2}\\ a=r(1+\sqrt{2})\)          Radius of the sector

 

\(A_{sec}=\pi r^2(1+\sqrt{2})^2/4\)

\(A_{insc}=\pi r^2\)

\(\frac{A_{insc}}{A_{sec}}=\frac{4}{(1+\sqrt{2})^2}\)

\(\frac{A_{insc}}{A_{sec}}=\frac{2}{1+\sqrt{2}}=1:2,414\)

1 : 2.414        is the ratio of their radii

 

Ratio:>>         Ainsc  :  Asec  = 11 : 16   or  11/16
