A piece of string fits exactly once around the perimeter of a square whose area is 144.
\n" ); document.write( "Rounded to the nearest whole number, what is the area of the largest circle that
\n" ); document.write( " can be formed from the piece of string?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The side of square = \"sqrt%28144%29\" = 12
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "We know the circumference of the circle = the perimeter of the square 4(12)
\n" ); document.write( "Find r of the circle
