    I suggest to place the 14 unit segment between the two 30 segments.
    Doing so you have a quarter circle with an horizontal segment of 7 units.
    let call h the distance between the segment and the horizontal axis.
    You have then
    7² + h² = R²
    And in the other triangle
    h² + (R-7)² = 30²
    You substract the two equations and get
    R² - 7R - 450 = 0
    Delta is 1849 = 43²
    R1 is (7-43)/2, negative
    and R2 is (7+43)/2 = 25.
    Probably faster.

    Just another (algebraic) solution:
    1. let a = angle AED = angle DEC; => angle BEC = 180-2a;
    2. Let us apply the Law of Cosine to triangle AED:
    30^2=2r^2-2r^2*cos(a)
    let t = cos(a) = 1-450/r^2; 0

    Another simple method using property of cyclic quadrilateral
    join the diagonals AC and BD.
    the property is
    AC.BD = AB.CD + AD.BC ..................eqn 1
    AB = 2r ; BC = 14; CD = AD=30
    AC = SQRT(4r^2 - 14^2) from right triangle ABC
    BD = SQRT(4r^2 - 30^2) from right triangle ABD
    substituting above values in eqn.1 and simplifying we get
    r.(r^2-7r-450) =0
    hence r = 0 ; r = -18; r = 25 (valid)

  • @ABhaim

    AD = DC (given)
    AE = EC (radii)
    ED = ED
    therefore, triangles AED and CED are congruent (side-side-side)
    angles AED = DEC (similar angles in congruent triangles)
    let AED = DEC = x, therefore CED = 180-2x (semi-circle angle)
    let AE=ED=EC=EB=r
    using Theorem of Al-Kashi, and by applying some trig identities:
    14^2 = r^2 + r^2 - 2*r*r*cos(180-2x) = 2r^2(1 - cos(180-2x)) = 2r^2(1 + cos(2x)) = 2r^2(1 + 2(cos(x))^2 - 1) = 4r^2(cos(x))^2
    14 = 2rcos(x) -> cos(x) = 7/r
    by using Theorem of Al-Kashi on either AED or CED, and by what we know of cos(x), we can calculate r:
    30^2 = 900 = r^2 + r^2 - 2*r*r*cos(x) = 2r^2 - 14r
    r^2 - 7r - 450 = 0
    (r - 25)(r + 18) = 0
    r = 25

    Looks Complicated.
    But, it works.
    I was using Sinus Theorm:
    A + 2A + (A+B) + B = 360°
    2A + B = 180° >> B = 180°- 2A
    .:| 2R = 14 / cos B = 30 /cos A
    14×cosA = 30×cosB = -30×cos2A* ↔️
    60p" + 14p - 30 = 0
    30p" + 7p - 15 = 0
    Cos A = (-7 + 43) ÷ (2×30) = 0,6 !! ↘️
    2R = 30/ cosA = 30/0,6 = 50, ➡️ R = 25 units
    Great Puzzle ! 😽

    Draw radii ED and EC. As they are all radii of circle E, EA = EB = EC = ED = r. As EA = EC, CD = DA = 30, and ED is shared, ∆DEA and ∆CED are congruent.
    Draw AC. As AC is a chord and ED is a radius, ED bisects and is perpendicular to AC at its midpoint M, and AM = MC. Also, all current angles at M are 90°, as AC and ED are perpendicular. So as AM = MC, CD = DA, and MD is shared, ∆DMC and ∆AMD are congruent. Similarly, as EA = ED and EM is shared, ∆EMA and ∆CME are congruent.
    By Thales' Theorem, for any three points on the circumference of a circle, if two of the points are the ends of a diameter, the angle between them at the third point is 90°. As ∠EAM = ∠BAC and ∠AME = ∠ACB = 90°, ∆AME and ∆ACB are similar triangles.
    Triangle ∆AME:
    EM/EA = CB/BA
    EM/r = 14/2r = 7/r
    EM = (r)7/r = 7
    As EM = 7, MD = r-7.
    Triangle ∆DMC:
    (r-7)² + MC² = 30²
    MC² = 900 - (r²-14r+49)
    MC² = 851 - r² + 14r
    MC = √(851-r²+14r)
    Complete the circle by mirroring arc AB about diameter AB. Extend radius ED to become diameter DF. By Intersecting Chords Theorem, if two chords of a circle intersect, then the products of the lengths of each chord on either side of the point of intersection are equal. Note that as EF = r, MF = 7+r, and remember that AM = MC.
    MD(MF) = AM(MC) = MC²
    (r-7)(r+7) = √(851-r²+14r)²
    r² - 49 = 851 - r² + 14r
    2r² - 14r - 900 = 0
    r² - 7r - 450 = 0
    r² + 18r - 25r - 450 = 0
    (r+18)(r-25) = 0
    r = -18 ❌ | r = 25 ✓

    With trigonometry we could solve in this way:
    Tracing the radii perpendicular to each chord and radii ED and EC we get 4 right triangle with angle in E equal to alpha and 2 right triangle with angle in E equal to beta. Knowing that
    4 α + 2 β = 180° => β = 90 - 2 α
    for each right triangle with angle alpha we have:
    sen α = 15/r (r = radius)
    for each right triangle with angle beta we have:
    sen β = 7/r
    but we know that
    sen β = sen ( 90 - 2 α) = cos 2 α = 1 - 2sen²α
    then solving the system:
    1 - 2sen²α = 7/r
    sen α = 15/r
    we get the equation:
    r² - 7r - 450 = 0
    r = 25
    too difficult? 🙃

    P, Q, R are respectively the orthogonal projections of E on (BC), (CD), (DA).
    angles BEP, PEC are x degrees; angles CEQ, QED, DER, REA are y degrees. So angle PED is x + 2y degrees = 90 degrees. (as naturally 2x +4y = 180 degrees)
    So, we have: x = 90 - 2y degrees.
    In triangle BEP: sin (x) = 7/R, and in triangle CEQ: sin (y) = 15/R.
    We know that sin (x) = sin (90 - 2y) = cos (2y) = 1 - 2 (sin (y))^2, so we have: 7/R = 1 - (15/R)^2.
    This equation gives (we multiplicate by R^2): 7R = R^2 - 450 or R^2 - 7R -450 = 0
    This is a second degree equation, the discriminant is (7)^2 _ (4) (1) (-450) = 1849, and sqrt (1849) = 43.
    So, the solutions are: R = (7 - 43)/ 2 = -18 or R = (7 + 43)/ 2 = 25. The first solution beeing negative is physicaly impossible, so we get finally: R = 25.

    Do all these solutions rely on two segments being equal?
    Real world problems very rarely have convenient dimensions.
    Angle AEB = 180 degrees, so, using successive approximation with various values of r, you can add the three segment angles and make them total 180 degrees.
