Question 1077718: Find the perimeter of a square inscribed in a circle of radius 5.00cm.

Thank you. Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the circle is radius 5, then its diameter, which would be a diagonal of the square inscribed in it, would be 10. Let n be one of the sides of the square. Then 2n²=10²=100
n²=50
n=5√2
4n=20√2 cm. as the perimeter of the square. ☺☺☺☺
