radius of circle =R  inclination of line = θ  length of chord = 2R sin θ  A_(yellow) =(R^2 /2)(2θ−sin 2θ)=(1/2)×((2R sin θ cos θ ×2R sin θ sin θ)/2)  θ−sin θ cos θ=sin θ cos θ × sin^2  θ  ⇒4θ=sin 2θ(3−cos 2θ)  ⇒θ=39.4976°

$${radius}\:{of}\:{circle}\:={R} \\ $$$${inclination}\:{of}\:{line}\:=\:\theta \\ $$$${length}\:{of}\:{chord}\:=\:\mathrm{2}{R}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta \\ $$$${A}_{{yellow}} =\frac{{R}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{2}\theta−\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{2}\theta\right)=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\frac{\mathrm{2}{R}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\:\mathrm{cos}\:\theta\:×\mathrm{2}{R}\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\:\mathrm{sin}\:\theta}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\theta−\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\:\mathrm{cos}\:\theta=\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\:\mathrm{cos}\:\theta\:×\:\mathrm{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\theta \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{4}\theta=\mathrm{sin}\:\mathrm{2}\theta\left(\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{2}\theta\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\theta=\mathrm{39}.\mathrm{4976}° \\ $$
