Solution 7 (Subtended Chords)
First draw a diagram. Let's say that the radius is . Then the area of the is Using the formula for the length of a chord subtended by an angle, we get Multiplying and simplifying these 2 equations gives Similarly and . Again, multiplying gives Dividing by gives , so . Pluging this back into one of the equations, gives If we imagine a -- right triangle, we see that if is opposite and is adjacent, .

Solution 8 (Coordinates and Algebraic Manipulation)
Let on the upper quarter of the circle, and let be the side length of the square. Hence, we want to find . Let the center of the circle be . The two equations would thus become: Now, let , , , and . Our equations now change to and . Subtracting the first from the second, we have . Substituting back in and expanding, we have , so . We now have one of our terms we need (). Therefore, we only need to find to find . We now write the equation of the circle, which point satisfies: We can expand the second equation, yielding Now, with difference of squares, we get . We can add to this equation, which we can factor into . We realize that is the same as the equation of the circle, so we plug its equation in: . We can combine like terms to get , so . Since the answer is an integer, we know is a perfect square. Since it is even, it is divisible by , so we can factor . With some testing with approximations and last-digit methods, we can find that .

Solution 9(Law of Sines)

Making all the angles in the above equation acute gives
