ILL 1985 Problem 83

Let $\Gamma_i, i = 0, 1, 2, \dots$ , be a circle of radius $r_i$ inscribed in an angle of measure $2\alpha$ such that each $\Gamma_i$ is externally tangent to $\Gamma_{i+1}$ and $r_{i+1} < r_i$ . Show that the sum of the areas of the circles $\Gamma_i$ is equal to the area of a circle of radius $r =\frac 12 r_0 (\sqrt{ \sin \alpha} + \sqrt{\text{csc} \alpha}).$
