ABCD is a unit square. There are 2 circles in picture. The center of one is A and passing from F. The center of another is D and passing from C.
If $\alpha=2\beta$ then I got the following results

$|AF|=x$

$\cos(2\beta)=\frac{1}{x}$

and from isoscale triangle (ADG): $\sin(3\beta)=\frac{x}{2}$

$\sin(3\beta)\cos(2\beta)=\frac{1}{2}$

$\sin(5\beta)+\sin(\beta)=1$

$\sin(\beta)=P$

my first question: Is it possible to find a solution of P via radicals?

Second question: During my drawing the figure that Area of (CGH region) is equal about Area of (HBF region) (just I noticed with geometrical drawing tool).I do not claim that they are equal Because I know very well that it is impossible to Squaring a circle.(more info is in Wiki link)

I try to find approximation of $\pi$ in radicals via the figure if possible. Note:If you know interesting $\pi$ approximations via Squaring a circle, I would like to know them. Thanks for advices and answers

EDIT:

I asked the question to wolfram alpha. I got fifth degree polinom with real coefficients.

$\sin(5\beta)+\sin(\beta)=1$

$\sin^5(\beta)+5\sin(\beta)\cos^4(\beta)-10\sin^3(\beta)\cos^2(\beta)+\sin(\beta)=1$

$\sin^5(\beta)+5\sin(\beta)(1-\sin^2(\beta))^2-10\sin^3(\beta)(1-\sin^2(\beta))+\sin(\beta)=1$

$\sin(\beta)=P$

$16P^5-20P^3+6P=1$

Really $P=\sin(\pi /6)=\frac{1}{2}$ is a solution of the polinom.

All roots are in the link. What a pity that wolfram did not offer me radical solutions for 4 degree polinom either. I will check other tools to find radical solutions of the roots. For my second question UPDATE:

I decided to see if really Areas are about eqaul to each other.

the root is for my first drawing: I will take the solution about $P\approx0.188286$ from wolfram solution.

$\sin(\beta)\approx0.188286$

$\beta\approx0.189416$

$|AF|=x$

$\cos(2\beta)=\frac{1}{x}$

$x=\frac{1}{\cos(2\beta)}\approx1.076314$

Area of (CGH region)= (wiki link) enter image description here

Area of (HBF region)= (Wiki Link) enter image description here

RESULT: I wonder if I use more digits of the root what Areas will be. it seems that numerical solution of areas are very near each other. I will update if I find radical solution of polinom and I will update if I find some other results. Your helps will be appreciated very much to analyze the results.

Thanks a lot to Chris K. Caldwel for his contribution. I drew the solution he offered . enter image description here

    To answer your first question: one solution to $\sin(5\beta)+\sin(\beta)=1$ is $\pi/6$, so since $sin(5\beta)$ can be written as fifth degree polynomial in terms of $\sin\beta$, the remaining four solutions to $\sin(5\beta)+\sin(\beta)=1$ are the zeros of a fourth degree polynomial, hence can all be expressed in terms of radicals.2012-05-02

    Really quite huge radical results. I did not expect to see such complex results. What about Areas . Is it possible to show how they are near each other via using Mathematica 8. Pity that I do not have mathematica 8. Thanks a lot for help and answer. very appreciated2012-05-02

    Just give the formulas for this areas, i will compute them and extend the answer2012-05-02

    They are in my question. I calculated for P≈0.188286. Is not it clear for you?2012-05-02

    As far as I understand they are $$1-\left(\frac{\beta x^2}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{x^2-1}}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\sin(6\beta)+\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-3\beta\right)\right)$$ and $$\beta x^2-\frac{\sqrt{x^2-1}}{2}$$ Right?2012-05-02

    Yes. Correct results2012-05-02

    Ok, I will compute them.2012-05-02

    Thanks a lot for your great contribution. Seems 30 digit results are near my 6 digit results for fourth root. The areas are near each other about 3 digits after point. Really I was excited and expected to find more digits are equal.thanks again for your helps2012-05-02

    I think this question is answered :)2012-05-02

    yes . most of my wonders solved. Now I wonder if we accept the areas equal how much digits $\pi$ will correct. But 3 digits of equal areas not so much I expected. I do not know that the assumption of equal areas how many correct digits of $\pi$ will offer me . I do not expect many digits. But if I find how many correct digits I can get, I will update my question. Thanks a lot again for your contribution to my research.2012-05-02
