Equations of given elements and relations

[edit]

(0) The area of the right triangle has to be the same as the area of the circle with radius around center point
(1) since is a square
(2) since is the diagonal of square
(3) since is a right triangle
(4) since is a square, because and are tangent points of the circle around with the sides of square
