Never mind. Trying an idealized example of r=R, .75R, .5R, .25R it comes down to A4\propto 12-.752 A3\propto .752-.52 A2\propto .52-.252 A4/A3 < A3/A2 But it was cool to find the math font/language!

Hi all Hoping someone can figure out a problem. In the attached figure, A is the area of openings in a disc. Assume the segments 82, 84, 86, 88 are along a radius and are equal. Is it possible to prove that A4/A3 > A3/A2 > A2/A1? In thanks I'll share this, hope it's not old news. Some...
