If the perimeter is fixed the circle will have the maximum area possible compared to any other shape including that of square.br /We can check that as follows.br /Let P be perimeter then, br /P = 2*π*radius {For Circle} = 4*side {For Square)br /thereforebr /Circle Area = π*radius^(2) = π*(P/(2π))^(2) = P^2/(4π) = 0.07958*P^(2)br /Square Area = side^(2) = (P/4)^(2) = P/16 = 0.0625*P^(2)br /hencebr /Circle Area > Square Area

Circle Let's say that the the perimeter is p. For a square, the side would be, (p/4) and the area would be (p^2/16). For the circle, the radius would be (p/2p) and area would be (p^2/4p). 4p is approx 12.56. Thus, circle had bigger area
