If a square and a circle have the same perimeter. Which one will have the bigger area?

Mathematics

Your Answer

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

0

  • The radius is p/2*pi and area is (p^2/(4*pi))

  • Somehow, the pi symbol in the answer got replaced by p.
