Given the area, A, of a 4-pointed star polygon formed by the rectangle, with dimensions L×2L, and four triangles, with height h from their bases to the vertices, consider the circle that covers the greater of the two distances between opposite vertices (cf. figure below).
Given (A,h), find
- the width, L, of the rectangle;
- the angle, α [in Radians], of the sector of the circle such that its area is equal to A;
- the minimum slicing number n, corresponding to the number of congruent circle slices, such that the area of one slice does not exceed the above sector area.
input: (A, h)
output: y = [L alpha n]
