    The original challenge of this sangaku is to find the ratio of the sides of the two equilateral triangles, which is 1:2φ 😉

    Let phi be the golden ratio implies A(triangle(ABC)) = (3 * sqrt(3)/16) * (phi - 1)^2. This problem is one of many Japanese Temple Geometry Problems.

    Circle O:
    A = πr²
    π = πr²
    r² = 1
    r = 1
    Draw radii OA and OE (using existing points) and draw radius OG, where C is on OG, and OG bisects AB at H.
    As ∆DEF is equilateral, and O is the center of the circle it's inscribed in, OE is an angle bisector of ∠DEF. Thus ∠CEO is 30°, and ∆OCE is a 30-60-90 special right triangle. As OE = r = 1, OC = OE/2 = 1/2.
    Let s = the side length of the green equilateral triangle ∆ABC. As OG is an angle bisector of ∠BCA and thus bisects ∆ABC, ∆AHC and ∆CHB are congruent 30-60-90 special right triangles, and so AH = HB = s/2 and CH = s√3/2.
    Triangle ∆AHO
    AH² + HO² = OA²
    (s/2)² + (1/2+s√3/2)² = 1²
    s²/4 + (1+√3s)²/4 = 1
    s² + (1 + 2√3s + 3s²) = 4
    4s² + 2√3s - 3 = 0
    s = [-(2√3) ± √(2√3)²-4(4)(-3)]/2(4)
    s = -√3/4 ± [√12+48]/8
    s = -√3/4 ± √60/8
    s = -√3/4 ± √15/4
    s = √15/4 - √3/4 ==> s > 0
    A = s²√3/4
    A = (√15/4-√3/4)²(√3/4)
    A = (15/16+3/16-2√45/16)(√3/4)
    A = (18/16-6√5/16)(√3/4)
    A = 18√3/64 - 6√15/64
    A = (9√3-3√15)/32 ≈ 0.124

    Let's enjoy this easter egg:
    .
    ..
    ...
    ....
    .....
    First of all we calculate the radius R of the circle:
    A = πR²
    π = πR²
    1 = R²
    ⇒ R = 1
    May S be the side length of the triangle DEF. Since the triangle CEF is a right triangle, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem:
    CF² = EF² − CE² = S² − (S/2)² = S² − S²/4 = 3*S²/4 ⇒ CF = (√3/2)*S
    According to the intersecting chords theorem we obtain:
    CD*CE = CF*(2*R − CF)
    (S/2)*(S/2) = (√3/2)*S*[2*R − (√3/2)*S]
    S²/4 = √3*S*R − 3*S²/4
    S² = √3*S*R
    ⇒ S = √3*R = √3
    May s be the side length of the triangle ABC and may M be the midpoint of AB. We can obtain CM in the same way we calculated CF:
    CM = (√3/2)*s
    The triangle AOM is also a right triangle, so we apply the Pythagorean theorem again:
    AO² = MO² + AM²
    AO² = (CO + CM)² + AM²
    AO² = (CF − FO + CM)² + AM²
    R² = [(√3/2)*S − R + (√3/2)*s]² + (s/2)²
    1² = [(√3/2)*√3 − 1 + (√3/2)*s]² + (s/2)²
    1² = [3/2 − 1 + (√3/2)*s]² + (s/2)²
    1² = [1/2 + (√3/2)*s]² + (s/2)²
    1 = 1/4 + (√3/2)*s + 3*s²/4 + s²/4
    0 = −3/4 + (√3/2)*s + s²
    s
    = −√3/4 ± √(3/16 + 3/4)
    = −√3/4 ± √(3/16 + 12/16)
    = −√3/4 ± √(15/16)
    = −√3/4 ± √3√5/4
    Since s>0 the only useful solution is:
    s = √3(√5 − 1)/4
    Finally we can calculate the area of the green triangle:
    A(ABC)
    = (1/2)*AB*CM
    = (1/2)*s*(√3/2)*s
    = (√3/4)*s²
    = (√3/4)*3*(√5 − 1)²/16
    = (3√3/64)*(5 − 2√5 + 1)
    = (3√3/64)*(6 − 2√5)
    = (3√3/32)*(3 − √5)
    ≈ 0.124

      Nice, tho' I think it was easier to work with a half-side of the smaller triangle.
      s = (√15 - √3)/8
      ... is 0.26762
      And then the area is merely
      AREA = 1/2 2s * √3s = √3s²
      ... is 0.12404
      In any case, its all Easter Eggs

    Let x be the side of the green triangle. Since the area of the circle is π, then its radius is 1 and the side of the large triangle is 3 / √3 = √3.
    Extend one side of the green triangle to the circumference. Due to rotational symmetry the extended segment consists of x + √3 / 2 + x.
    So, by the chord theorem, x (x + √3 / 2) = (√3 / 2)² ⇒ 4x² + 2√3 x − 3 = 0 ⇒ x = √3 / (1 + √5) ⇒ green area = 3⁄32 √3 (3 − √5) ≈ 0.124 sq. u.
    Thank you PreMath! 🙏

    The radius of the circle is 1, then OF = 1 and OC = 1/2
    Let's use an orthonormal, center O, first axis parallel to (DE). We have C(0, -1/2)
    The equation of (CB) is y +1/2 = -tan(60°).x or y = -sqrt(3).x -1/2
    The equation of the circle beeing x^2 + y^2 = 1, at point B (intersection of the circle and (CB)) we have: x^2 + (-sqrt(3).x -1/2)^2 = 1
    We expand: 4.(x^2) +sqrt(3).x -3/4 = 0. Delta = 3 -4.4.(-3/4) = 15, so x = ( -sqrt(3) + sqrt(15))/8 is the abscissa of B (the other solution is rejected as negative). Then the ordinate of B is y = -sqrt(3). [(-sqrt(3 + sqrt(15))/8] -1/2 = (3 - 3.sqrt(5))/8 -1/2 = (-1 -3.sqrt(5))/8
    Finally we have B((-sqrt(3) +sqrt(15))/8; (-1 -3.sqrt(5))/8) and VectorCB((-sqrt(3) + sqrt(15))/8; (3 - 3.sqrt(15))/8)
    BC^2 = (3 + 15 -6.sqrt(5) + 9 + 45 -18.sqrt(5))/ 64 = (72 -24.sqrt(5))/ 64 = (9 -3.sqrt(5))/ 8
    BC is the side length of the equilateral triangle ABC, the area of this triangle is (sqrt(3)/4).(BC^2)
    So the area is (sqrt(3)/4).((9 -3.sqrt(5))/8 )) = (9.sqrt(3) -3.sqrt(15)) / 32 = ((3.sqrt(3)/32).(3 - sqrt(5)).

    1) Pi*R^2 = 1*Pi ; R^2 = 1 ; R = 1 ; The Point O is the Center of the Circle and the Center of the Equilateral Triangle.
    2) OD = OE = OF = 1
    3) OD^2 = CD^2 + OC^2 ; R^2 = CD^2 + OC^2 ; 1 = CD^2 + OC^2
    4) OC = R/2 = 1/2 = 0,5
    5) CD^2 = (S/2)^2
    6) So : 1 = (R/2)^2 + (S/2)^2 ; 1 = (1/2)^2 + (S/2)^2 ; 1 = 1/4 + (S/2)^2 ; S^2/4 = 1 - 1/4 ; S^2/4 = 4/4 - 1/4 ; S^2/4 = 3/4 ; S^2 = 12/4 S^2 = 3 ; S = sqrt(3)
    7) Side of Triangle is equal to (sqrt(3)/2) * 2 ; S = sqrt3) ~ 1,732
    8) Now, with a little help from Algebraic Geometry Calculator I can Find The Height of Small Green Triangle and Side
    9) Height = 0,464
    10) Side = 0,532
    11) Area = (0,464 * 0,532) / 2 ; Area = 0,1234
    12) Answer : The Green Triangle Area equal to approx. 0,1234 Square Units.

    I used the trigonometric difference identity:
    Sin(a-b)=sin(a)cos(b)-cos(a)sin(b)
    £=angle between verticle radius to O then to B.
    Sin(30°-£)=sin30cos£-cos30sin£
    Sin£=x
    Besides not using a calculator (until the final numeric value .1240471...), is there a benefit to crunching more numbers?
    It's good to practice more algebraic geometry.
    Thank you.

    You know what? Looking at it, I just realized it's x=1/2 in proportion to that right triangle. But since your figuring for a larger triangle, and the side length of that equilateral triangle isn't 1, it was throwing me off, but that perfectly matches the definition of a Rhombus. And seeing the Sin function, I now perfectly understand why it is that way, thanks to this problem. A Sin function is equal to the right triangle's longer leg, should its hypotenuse be 1. That was what I originally saw in this, but it takes me a while to figure out why I was seeing it.
    Although, 1/2(bh)=1/2(ab)sinC. You'd have to do the math for me, to see if it's equal.
    And I just checked the math on a Rhombus calculator. It's exact.
    I just see so much nuance in that, the Sin is the proportion, so when you do base times height, the sin turns into the height when multiplied by the proportion of the other side you multiplied together, as it turns into the height when you multiply it with its appropriate side.

    Rather troublesome to deal with such small equilateral triangle of side 2s, so 1-s^2=(1/2+sqrt(3)s)^2=1/4+sqrt(3)s+3s^2, 4s^2+sqrt(3)s-3/4=0, 16s^2+4sqrt(3)s-12=0, s= -sqrt(3)+-sqrt(17)/8😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮,

    I was initially confused by the diagram, because the portion of the circle which contains the smaller triangle appears LARGER than the two other, similar areas of the circle. But in fact all three such areas are the same size, and so a smaller triangle of identical size as the one in the diagram would fit equally in each of the three areas...
