Eq triangle minus arcs

In an equilateral triangle with a 2cm long side, the arcs of three circles are drawn from the centers at the vertices and radii 1cm. Calculate the area of the shaded part - a formation that makes up the difference between the triangle area and circular cuts.

Correct answer:

S =  0.1613 cm2
