if the area of the square is 144 find the area of the circle
----------------
A side of the square is sqrt(144) = 12
-----------
The diagonal of the square is 12sqrt(2)
--------------
The diagonal is the diameter of the circle.
(1/2) of the diagonal is the radius = 6sqrt(2)
--------------
Therefore the area of the circle = (pi)(6sqrt(2))^2 = 72pi
