A circle has its center at the center of a square with 12-inch sides. Using 3.14 for pi, find the area of the square not covered by the circle
---------
Area of the square = 12*12 = 144 sq inches
Area of the circle = pi%2Ar%5E2+=+36pi sq inches
--> 144 - 36pi sq inches
==============================
then write a ratio of the circle’s circumference to the perimeter of the square.
------------
Sq P = 4*12 = 48
C = 2*pi*r = 12pi
--> 12pi/48
= pi/4
