So... if you notice the picture below
each circle, has their central angle at the vertex of the triangle
that simply means, 3 circles with a radius of 3, overlapping the triangle
now, the area in the middle, the shaded one, will be, the whole area of the triangle MINUS those 3 circle sectors
hmmmm each sector has 60°, that means, all three of them will then be 60+60+60 or 180°, so the area of those three sectors, can be combined into a 180° sector, well, hell, 180° is really half a circle
so.... the area of those three sectors of 60° each, all three combined, is the same area of half a circle with a radius of 3
so
you can, add the fractions if you want, or leave them like that, or get their difference by using their decimal format
