A sketch to investigate a sangaku-style problem from GeoBunnies.
In a right triangle formed in a semicircle, inscribe a rectangle. In each smaller triangle, formed by the rectangle, inscribe a circle. Find the arrangement so that the area of the two smaller circles equals the larger. Or, the sum of the smaller radii squared is equal to the larger radius squared.
