Question

    Side of a square is 6 cm. What is the area of the

    largest circle that can be drawn inside the square? (Take π  = 22/7)
    A 156/7 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 198/7 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 252/7 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 318/7 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Side of a square = Diameter of a circle ⇒ Diameter of a circle = 6 cm ⇒ Radius of a circle = 6/2 = 3 cm ⇒ Area of a circle = πr2 ⇒ Area of a circle = 22/7 x 3 x 3 = 198/7 cm2  ∴ The area of the largest circle that can be drawn inside the square is 198/7 cm2
