Three congruent circles are pairwise tangent and each has a radius equal to 2. A circle circumscribes the three circles. Calculate the total area shaded in blue. The blue region is comprised of two parts. One region is the three circular sectors of the small circles enclosed by the line segments connecting the three small circle’s centers. The other region is outside the three small circles and bound by the large circumscribing circle (exclude the area in between the three small circles).
