Question

if i have a circle of radius 1
what are the dimensions for a square with the same area as the circle?

Answer 1

Side length: \(\sqrt{\text{Area}}\)

Answer 2

So the square would be \(\sqrt{\pi} \times \sqrt{\pi}\)

Answer 3

cool, cheers, so area = pi then?

Answer 4

Yes \(\pi r^2\) and the radius is 1 for the area of the circle.

Answer 5

sweet, so this holds true for circles of all radius sizes? (ie side legnth = sqrt pi x r)?
