Question:

If the length of a side of the square is equal to that of the diameter of a circle, then the ratio of the area of the square and that of the circle is: ($π =\frac{22}{7}$)

Options:

14 : 11

28 : 11

11 : 14

11 : 7

Correct Answer:

14 : 11

Explanation:

Let the length of the side of the square = x

then, also the diameter of the circle = x

Then, radius of the circle = \(\frac{x}{2}\)

The required ratio =  x2 : π(\(\frac{x}{2}\))

= x2 : \(\frac{22}{7}\) × \(\frac{x^2}{4}\)

= 28 : 22 = 14 : 11
