Gauss Circle, Square And Triangle

 Consider the circle,

and the estimate for the number of integer points in the circle is, square minus four triangles. 

\(e_z=(2r)^2-4(r(\sqrt{2}-1))^2\)

\(e_z=4r^2(1-(\sqrt{2}-1)^2)\)

\(e_z=4r^2(1-(2+1-2\sqrt{2})\)

\(e_z=8r^2(\sqrt{2}-1)\)

\(\pi\) need not get involved, but the estimation comes from a circle in a square.

Good night.
