$${r}\:=\:\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3}\left(\mathrm{3}\right)+\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{3}\right)+\mathrm{2}\left(\mathrm{3}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}\right)}}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{6}}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\mathrm{Area}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{circle}\:=\:\pi\left(\mathrm{3}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \:=\:\mathrm{9}\pi \\ $$

$${a}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{4}^{\mathrm{2}} −{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$−\frac{\mathrm{1}^{\mathrm{2}} +{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −{r}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{1}×{a}}=\frac{\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} +{a}^{\mathrm{2}} −{r}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{2}×{a}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{r}^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{1}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{4}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{6}}=\mathrm{9} \\ $$$${red}\:{circle}\:{area}\:=\pi{r}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{9}\pi \\ $$

$$\mathrm{Applying}\:\mathrm{Stewart}'\mathrm{s}\:\mathrm{theorem}\:\mathrm{to}\:\bigtriangleup\mathrm{BCD} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{3a}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} ×\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{2r}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{48}−\mathrm{3r}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{3r}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{9} \\ $$
