Re: Triple the Area of a Circle
Here are four solutions.
- Triangle Scaffold:
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Green Triangle, 0° rotation.
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Blue, place behind.
- Shift-Drag so edge touches top-right triangle apex.
- Circle Scaffold:
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Green move centre horizontally to Red's right edge.
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Blue, centre on top intersection of Red/Green.
- Shift-Drag so edge touches bottom intersection of Red/Green.
- Two Circle Scaffold:
- Clone Red Circle twice.
- Change to Green and position all three so each just touches.
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Blue, place behind.
- Shift-Drag so edge touches bottom intersection of Green/Green.
- Square/Hexagon Scaffold:
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Green Square, 0° rotation, place behind.
- Clone Red Circle.
- Change to Cyan Hexagon, 0° rotation, place behind.
- Shift-Drag so edges match the Square.
- Clone Red Circle.
- Shift behind Green.
- Shift-Drag so edged touches Hexagon.
My solutions are here: Attachment 122562. The button open a layer that shows the math / maths behind the constructions.

2 Should be move centre horizontally to Red's centre not right edge Acorn?.

Egg, if I am moving the Green circle horizontally, I want its centre to touch Red's right edge.
I could have said move Green horizontally so its left edge touches Red's centre.
In the end, I wanted the centres to be a radius apart.
