Question 838979: Two circles of equal radius r cm, such that the centre of each circle lies on the circumference of the other one.
Given that sin60=(√3)/2, find an expression for the total area enclosed within the two circles.
My notes:
I have split the area needed to find into 4 right angled triangles and 4 chords. I can find the area of the combined area of 1 chord and 2 of these triangles. But I have no clue how to work out the final 2 chords area and get the answer. Look forward to hearing from you.

I can do this tomorrow, if that's not too late for you.
