QR is the diameter of the semi-circular arc through R-O-Q 
So if M is the midpoint of QR, OM = MQ = MR = r [Radii of the same circle] ---- (1) 

But given PS is tangent to this circle at O; 
Hence OM perpendicular to PS. [Radius and tangent perpendicular at point of contact] 
==> OM perpendicular to QR [Since QR is parallel to PS] ---- (2) 

So from (1) & (2), angle OMQ is a right triangle and applying Pythagoras theorem, 
r² + r² = OQ² = 4 [Since OQ is the radius of the bigger circle of diameter 4 units] 
==> r = √2 units. ---- (3) 

Also QOR = 90 deg [Angle in the semi circle of R-O-Q] ----- (4) 

iii) Area of the semi circle ROQ = (1/2)(r²) = (1/2)(2π) [Substituting r = √2 from (3)] 
==> Area of the semi circle ROQ = π sq. units ----- (5) 

iv) QXR is the minor segment of the circle whose radius is 2 units and the chord is QR. 
Angle subtended by the chord QR at the center O =  angle QOR = 90 deg 
[Angle in the semi circle of the arc QOR] 

Area of minor segment = (1/2)(r²){Ө - sin(Ө)}, where Ө is the angle at the center in radians and r is the radius of the circle] 
Here Ө = 90 deg = π/2; so sin(Ө) = sin(π/2) = 1 
r = radius of bigger circle = 2 units 

Thus area of the segment QXR = (1/2)(4)(π/2 - 1) = π - 2 sq. units ----- (6) 

Adding (5) & (6), Area of the region QXROQ = (2π - 2) sq. units = 2(π - 1) sq. units
