A square is inscribed in a circle of diameter d


Asked by admin @ in Math viewed by 306 People


A square is inscribed in a circle of diameter d and another square is circumscribing the circle. Find the ratio of the outer square to the area of the inner square.

Answered by admin @



Diameter will be the hypotenuse of the small square and a parallel line for a side in the large square.
so in small square,(a -- side)
(a)2 + (a)2 = (d)2
2(a)2=(d)2
side a= d/ root 2

in large square ,(A----side)

A= d
side A= d

now to find ratio =large square area/small square area
= (d)2/2/(d)2
=1/2
thus the ration is 2:1 and the larger circle is not 4 times the small one.
