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

    A) \[462\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]       

    B) \[539\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

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

    D) \[693\,\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let a be the side of square. \[\therefore \]      \[{{a}^{2}}=484\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[a=22\] \[\therefore \] Length of wire \[=4\times 22\]             \[=88\,cm\] \[\therefore \] Circumference of circle \[=88\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[r=\frac{88\times 7}{2\times 22}=14\,cm\] \[\therefore \]      Area of circle \[=\pi {{r}^{2}}\]             \[=\frac{22}{7}\times 14\times 14\]             \[=616\,c{{m}^{2}}\]
