Question

The side of a square is 10 cm. Find the area of the inscribed circle. [Take π = 3.14.]

Answer 1

If a circle is inscribed in a square, then the side of the square is equal to the diameter of the circle.

Side of the square = 10 cm

Side = Diameter = 10

∴ Radius = 5 cm

Area of the inscribed circle = πr² 

= 3.14 × 5 × 5

= 78.5 cm²
