Four equal circles intersect: What is the area of the small shaded portion and its height












3












$begingroup$


In terms of $R$ which is the radius of all four circles, what is the area of the intersection region of these four equal circles and the height of the marked arrow in the figure? The marked arrow is along the line CD, also the midpoint of all the circles are points A, B, C and D. Looking for a very short intuitive solution. I have checked similar questions on this site for example this and this.

    Thanks! I think its clear now! I need to subtract the area of the sector from the triangle to get the small area and then multiply by two. What about the height any clues?

enter image description hereIf you repeat this pattern infinitely, you'll find that each circle consists of $12$ of these football shaped areas, together with $6$ 'triangular' areas in between (see red circle in figure). So, setting the area of the footballs to $A$, and that of the triangles to $B$, we have:



$pi^2=12A +6B$ (I am setting radius to $1$ ... you can easily adjust for $R$)



OK, now consider the green rectangle formed by four of the points on a circle. We see that the height of such a rectangle is equal to the radius, so that is $1$, and the width is easily found to be $sqrt{3}$, and this area includes $4$ whole footballs, $2$ half footballs, $2$ whole 'triangles', and $4$ half triangles. So:



$sqrt{3}=5A+4B$



Now you can easily solve for $A$

Notice that the area of the equilateral triangle with edge $R$ plus $frac12$ the area of the shaded region is $frac16$ the area of the circle. The height of the triangle is $frac{Rsqrt3}{2}$ and the area is $frac12cdot Rcdotfrac{Rsqrt3}{2}=frac{R^2sqrt3}{4}$. The area of the shaded region is:
$$2left(frac{pi R^2}{6}-frac{R^2sqrt3}{4}right)=frac{2pi R^2}{6}-frac{3R^2sqrt3}{6}=frac{R^2(2pi-3sqrt3)}{6}$$
Also notice that the height of the triangle plus $frac12$ the height of the shaded area is equal to the radius of the circle. The height of the shaded area is:
$$2left(R-frac{Rsqrt3}{2}right)=2R-Rsqrt3=R(2-sqrt3)$$

How to label and detect the document text images

Image
1 $begingroup$ This is what I mean as document text image: I want to label the texts in image as separate blocks and my model should detect these labels as classes. NOTE: This is how the end result should be like: The labels like Block 1, Block 2, Block 3,.. should be Logo, Title, Date,.. Others, etc. Work done: First approach : I tried to implement this method via Object Detection, it didn't work. It didn't even detect any text. Second approach : Then I tried it using PixelLink. As this model is build for scene text detection, it detected each and every text in the image. But this method can detect multiple lines of text if the threshold values are increased. But I have no idea how do I add labels to the text blocks. PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones = 'PIXEL_CLS_WEIGHT_all_ones' PIXEL_C...

Tabula Rosettana

Image
Tabula multilinguis Rosettana in Museo Britannico ostenditur. Tabula Rosettana, [1] etiam titulo OGIS 90 agnita, est stela decreto de rebus sacris in Aegypto anno 196 a.C.n. lato inscripta. Tabula iuxta Rosettam Aegypti, urbem in delta Nili et ad oram maris Mediterranei iacentem, anno 1799 a milite Francico reperta est. Inventio stelae, linguis duabus scripturisque tribus inscriptae, eruditis Instituti Aegypti statim nuntiata est; ibi enim iussu imperatoris Napoleonis eruditi omnium scientiarum (sub aegide Commissionis Scientiarum et Artium) properaverant cum expeditione Francica. Qua a Britannis mox debellata, tabula Rosettana Londinium missa hodie apud Museum Britannicum iacet. Textus Graecus cito lectus interpretationi textuum Aegyptiorum (in formis hieroglyphica et demotica expressorum) gradatim adiuvit. Denique textum plene interpretatus est Ioannes Franciscus Champollion. Ab opere eruditorum cumulativo coepit hodiernus scripturae hieroglyphicae linguaeque Aegyptiae a...
