Given here is a circle of radius r, which inscribes a square which in turn inscribes a reuleaux triangle. The task is to find the maximum possible area of this reuleaux triangle.
Examples: 
 

Input: r = 6
Output: 50.7434

Input: r = 11
Output: 170.554

 

 

Approach: From the figure, it is very clear that, if the side of the square is a, then 
 

a?2 = 2r 
a = ?2r

Also, in reuleaux triangle, h = a = ?2r, please refer Biggest Reuleaux Triangle within A Square
So, Area of the Reuleaux Triangle is, A = 0.70477*h^2 = 0.70477*2*r^2
