In curvature minus one, a hyperbolic disc of radius has area
In the Poincare disc this follows by integrating up to Euclidean radius .
If a domain of finite hyperbolic area contains a hyperbolic disc of radius in curvature , then , hence . For an interior point of a hyperbolic triangle, the open disc with radius equal to its distance from the boundary lies inside the triangle. Its area is at most by Gauss-Bonnet theorem, giving the elementary bound ; this need not be the sharp triangle inradius bound.
Hyperbolic discs of area have radius . Starting at the origin and placing their centers successively along one radial geodesic gives center distance and Euclidean coordinate
