You can put this solution on YOUR website! A piece of string fits exactly once around the perimeter of a square whose area is 144.
Rounded to the nearest whole number, what is the area of the largest circle that
can be formed from the piece of string?
:
The side of square = = 12
:
We know the circumference of the circle = the perimeter of the square 4(12)
Find r of the circle = 48
r =
r = 7.639
:
A =
A = 183 sq/units
