2. Circle C with radius 2 has diameter $\overline{AB}$. Circle D is internally tangent to circle C at A. Circle E is internally tangent to circle C, externally tangent to circle D, and tangent to $\overline{AB}$.

3. A rectangle has sides of length a and 36. A hinge is installed at each vertex of the rectangle, and at the midpoint of each side of length 36. The sides of length a can be pressed toward each other keeping those two sides parallel so the rectangle becomes a convex hexagon as shown. When the figure is a hexagon with the sides of length a parallel and separated by a distance of 24, the hexagon has the same area as the original rectangle. Find $a^2$.
