ratio of the area of a circle inscribed in a square to the area of a square

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

let's name the radius r. Also, the side of the square is 2r or the diameter of the circle. \(\large\color{purple }{ \rm A~circle~=πr^2}\) \(\large\color{purple }{ \rm A~square=(2r)^2}\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\large\color{blue }{ \rm πr^2~:~(2r)^2}\) \(\large\color{blue }{ \rm πr^2~:~4r^2}\) \(\large\color{blue }{ \rm π~:~4}\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Makes sense ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is the ratio: pi: 2r??

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Look at my posts above please :)

\frac{\pi }{4}\[\frac{\pi }{4} \]Using a circle with radius of 1 and a 2 by2 square.
