Problem
Three concentric circles centered at
have radii of
,
, and
. Points
and
lie on the largest cirlce. The region between the two smaller circles is shaded, as is the portion of the region between the two larger circles bounded by central angle
, as shown in the figure below. Suppose the shaded and unshaded regions are equal in area. What is the measure of
in degrees?
-figure-
Solution
Let
.
We see that the shaded region is the inner ring plus a sector
of the outer ring. The area of this in terms of
is
. This simplifies to
.
Also, the unshaded portion is comprised of the smallest circle plus the sector
of the outer ring. The area of this is
.
We are told these are equal, therefore
. Solving for
reveals
.
