9. Mohanlal , a prosperous farmer , has a square land of side 2 km . For the current season , He
decides to have some fun. He marks two distinct points on one of the diagonals of the land.
Using these points as centres, he construct two circles . Each of these circles falls completely
within the land and touches atleast two sides of the land . To his surprise the radii of both
the circles are exactly equal to 2/3 km .Mohanlal plants potatoes on the overlapping portion
of these circles . Calculate the area on which Mohanlal planted potatoes (in sq km).
