Solve for R+:

2piR%5E2+%2B+2piRH+-+S+=+0+

2piR%5E2+%2B+2piRH+=+S+

2pi%28R%5E2+%2B+RH%29+=+S+

R%5E2+%2B+RH=+S%2F%282pi%29+....complete square+R%5E2+%2B+RH+=>%28R%5E2+%2B+RH%2B%28H%2F2%29%5E2%29-%28H%2F2%29%5E2+=>%28R+%2B+H%2F2%29%5E2-%28H%2F2%29%5E2+

%28R+%2B+H%2F2%29%5E2-%28H%2F2%29%5E2=+S%2F%282pi%29+

%28R+%2B+H%2F2%29%5E2=+S%2F%282pi%29%2B%28H%2F2%29%5E2+

R+%2B+H%2F2=+sqrt%28S%2F%282pi%29%2B%28H%2F2%29%5E2%29+

R++=+sqrt%28S%2F%282pi%29%2B%28H%2F2%29%5E2%29-H%2F2+
