Problem 19

Three semicircles of radius 1 are constructed on diameter overline{AB} of a semicircle of radius 2. The centers of the small semicircles divide overline{AB} into four line segments of equal length, as shown. What is the area of the shaded region that lies within the large semicircle but outside the smaller semicircles?
