Question:

The area of the largest circle that can be drawn inside a square of side 14 cm is?

Options:

616 sq. cm

88 sq. cm

784 sq. cm

154 sq. cm

Correct Answer:

154 sq. cm

Explanation:

The circle will touch square at four edges.

Diameter of circle (2r) = side of square = 14

∴ Area of circle = πr2

                      = π\(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7

                      = 154 sq. cm
