A, B and C are three points on a straight line, not
necessarily equidistant with B being between A and C. Three
semicircles are drawn on the same side of the line with AB,
BC and AC as the diameters. BD is perpendicular to the line
ABC, and D lies on the semicircle AC.
If the funny shaped diagram between the three semicircles
has an area of 1000 square cms, find the length of BD.

The length of BD is 35.68 cms
There are 3 right-angled triangles - ABD, CBD and ADC.
From ABD, AB^2 + BD^2 = AD^2 ------ I
From CBD, CB^2 + BD^2 = CD^2 ------ II
From ADC, AD^2 + CD^2 = AC^2 ------ III
Adding I and II,
AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = AD^2 + CD^2 ------ IV
FROM III and IV
AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = AC^2
AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = (AB+CB)^2
2*BD^2 = 2*AB*CB
BD^2 = AB*CB
BD = SQRT(AB*CB)
Given that funny shaped diagram beween three semicircles has
an area of 1000 square cms.
[PI/2 * (AC/2)^2] - [PI/2 * (AB/2)^2] - [PI/2 * (BC/2)^2] =
1000
PI/8 * [AC^2 - AB^2 - BC^2] = 1000
PI * [(AB+BC)^2 - AB^2 - BC^2] = 8000
PI * [2*AB*BC] = 8000
AB * BC = 4000/PI
Hence BD = SQRT(4000/PI) = 35.68 cms
where PI = 3.141592654
Hence, the length of BD is 35.68 cms.
