    A wire bent in the form of a square, encloses an area of \[484\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}.\] If the same wire is bent so as to form a circle, then the area of enclosed will be \[\left( \text{Use}\,\,\pi =\frac{22}{7} \right)\]

    A)  \[538\frac{2}{7}\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[484\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[644\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[616\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Side of the square \[=\sqrt{484}\,\,\text{cm}=22\,\,\text{cm}\] Length of the wire \[=4\times 22=88\,\,\text{cm}\] Circumference of circle \[=2\pi r\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[86=2\pi r\] \[\therefore \]                  \[r=\frac{88\times 7}{22\times 2}=14\,\,\text{cm}\] \[\therefore \] Area of the circle \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}=\frac{22}{7}\times 14\times 14=616\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]
