Q: Circles are drawn with four vertices as the centre and radius equal to the side of a square . If the square is formed by joining the mid-points of another square of side 2(6)^1/2 ( two root 6) , find the area common to all the four circles.

a)[ ( 3^1/2 - 1 )/2 ] 6pi

b)4pi - 3^1/2

c)1/2[ pi - 3(3)^1/2]

d) 4pi - 12[ 3^1/2 -1]

e)6pi
