You have a square and a circle and the perimeter of the square is equal to the circumference of the circle. Which of the two figures covers a bigger area?
Answer The circle
For example, if the square has sides of length 2, then the perimeter would by 8 units and the area would be 4 units. If the circumference of the circle is then 8 units, its area is found by the formula (C^2)/(4*pi) . If C=8, then the area is about 5.09, which is larger than 4.
