use the diagonal AC to visualize two right triangles, each one has shaded segments of a circle
the shaded region is cut by diagonal into two equal portions
find the area of the one portion and double it
so
area of of shaded region= area of the circle minus area of the triangle
side of square area of the circle=
area of the triangle=
area of shaded region=
double it
area of shaded region=
