side length of equilateral=1  a^2 =πr^2   ⇒a=(√π)r  AG=(r/(√3))  OA=(1/2)−(((√3)r)/3)  OD=((√3)/2)−(((√3)a)/2)−a=((√3)/2)−(((√3)/2)+1)(√π)r  [((√3)/2)−(((√3)/2)+1)(√π)r−r]^2 +[(1/2)−(((√3)r)/3)−((√π)/2)r]^2 =r^2   ⇒r=0.203 or 0.2501  tan (φ/2)=(a/(2(((√3)/2)−(((√3)a)/2) )))=(((√π)r)/((√3)(1−(√π)r)))  ⇒φ=2 tan^(−1) (((√π)r)/((√3)(1−(√π)r)))=35.955° or 49.379°

$${side}\:{length}\:{of}\:{equilateral}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$${a}^{\mathrm{2}} =\pi{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{a}=\sqrt{\pi}{r} \\ $$$${AG}=\frac{{r}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$$${OA}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{r}}{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$${OD}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{a}}{\mathrm{2}}−{a}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}−\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}+\mathrm{1}\right)\sqrt{\pi}{r} \\ $$$$\left[\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}−\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}+\mathrm{1}\right)\sqrt{\pi}{r}−{r}\right]^{\mathrm{2}} +\left[\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{r}}{\mathrm{3}}−\frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{\mathrm{2}}{r}\right]^{\mathrm{2}} ={r}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{r}=\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{203}\:{or}\:\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{2501} \\ $$$$\mathrm{tan}\:\frac{\phi}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{{a}}{\mathrm{2}\left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}{a}}{\mathrm{2}}\:\right)}=\frac{\sqrt{\pi}{r}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\left(\mathrm{1}−\sqrt{\pi}{r}\right)} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\phi=\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{tan}^{−\mathrm{1}} \frac{\sqrt{\pi}{r}}{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}\left(\mathrm{1}−\sqrt{\pi}{r}\right)}=\mathrm{35}.\mathrm{955}°\:{or}\:\mathrm{49}.\mathrm{379}° \\ $$

if side length of triangle =1 ⇒ r≤(1/4) (roughly)  or else the solution doesn′t fit the picture  if r≈(1/4) the square is not inside the triangle

$$\mathrm{if}\:\mathrm{side}\:\mathrm{length}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{triangle}\:=\mathrm{1}\:\Rightarrow\:{r}\leqslant\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\:\left(\mathrm{roughly}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{else}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{solution}\:\mathrm{doesn}'\mathrm{t}\:\mathrm{fit}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{picture} \\ $$$$\mathrm{if}\:{r}\approx\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{inside}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{triangle} \\ $$

thank you sir!  i noticed the problem with the second  case, but could not determine how  it comes. now i think it represents  following situation:

$${thank}\:{you}\:{sir}! \\ $$$${i}\:{noticed}\:{the}\:{problem}\:{with}\:{the}\:{second} \\ $$$${case},\:{but}\:{could}\:{not}\:{determine}\:{how} \\ $$$${it}\:{comes}.\:{now}\:{i}\:{think}\:{it}\:{represents} \\ $$$${following}\:{situation}: \\ $$

you are right. I only assumed the square  would be outside without calculating nor  drawing a picture

$$\mathrm{you}\:\mathrm{are}\:\mathrm{right}.\:\mathrm{I}\:\mathrm{only}\:\mathrm{assumed}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{square} \\ $$$$\mathrm{would}\:\mathrm{be}\:\mathrm{outside}\:\mathrm{without}\:\mathrm{calculating}\:\mathrm{nor} \\ $$$$\mathrm{drawing}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{picture} \\ $$

anyway, the second case is not a  valid solution. thanks for reviewing!

$${anyway},\:{the}\:{second}\:{case}\:{is}\:{not}\:{a} \\ $$$${valid}\:{solution}.\:{thanks}\:{for}\:{reviewing}! \\ $$
