Question:

The area (in cm2) of biggest circle that could be drawn in a square of side 18 cm is :

Options:

91π

81π

49π

168π

Correct Answer:

81π

Explanation:

We know that the area of a circle = πr2 

The length of side = 18

The radius of the circle = \(\frac{ diameter }{2}\) = \(\frac{ 18 }{2}\) = 9cm

The area of the biggest circle that can be drawn inside a square = π × r2 = π × (9)2 = 81π
