Circular Logic (Posted on 2002-07-03) Difficulty: 2 of 5
A name which has nothing to do with this question (well almost nothing)

What percentage of the circle is shaded? (The quadrangle shown in the picture is a square with one of the vertices in the circle's center.)

Every one seems to be assuming that the green area is the shaded area, what if the blue area is the shaded area, since we dont know the original colour of the circle? is it a circle or are there meerly three different shapes interlocking?
Is the blue shape near the centre of the diagram the circle you are referring to, in which case the answer is 100%.
