- Paper
The vertices of a right triangle are the centers of three mutually externally tangent circles, as shown. What is the sum of the areas of the three circles?
unitsize(5mm);
defaultpen(fontsize(10pt)+linewidth(.8pt));
pair B=(0,0), C=(5,0);
pair A=intersectionpoints(Circle(B,3),Circle(C,4))[0];
draw(A--B--C--cycle);
draw(Circle(C,3));
draw(Circle(A,1));
draw(Circle(B,2));
label("",A,N);
label("",B,W);
label("",C,E);
label("3",midpoint(B--A),NW);
label("4",midpoint(A--C),NE);
label("5",midpoint(B--C),S);
