Here is another UKMT Senior Challenge problem for 2017.
“The diagram shows a square PQRS with edges of length 1, and four arcs, each of which is a quarter of a circle. Arc TRU has centre P; arc VPW has centre R; arc UV has centre S; and arc WT has centre Q.
What is the length of the perimeter of the shaded region?
A_6___B_(2√2 – 1)π___C_(√2 – 1/2)π ___D_2___E_(3√2 – 2)π”
See Elliptic Circles for a solution.
