Question:

Find the ratio between area of square and that of a circle, when the length of a side of square is equal to that of diameter of the circle, is?

Options:

7 : 11

5 : 6

14 : 11

2 : \(\pi \)

Correct Answer:

14 : 11

Explanation:

If side of the square = a

Then area of the square = a2

diameter of circle = side of the square = a

radius of the circle (r) = \(\frac{a}{2}\)

area of cirlce = \(\pi \) r2 = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (\(\frac{a}{2}\))2 = \(\frac{11 a^2}{14}\)

Required Ratio = a2 : \(\frac{11 a^2}{14}\) = 14 : 11
