Question:
[Section A]
If the perimeter of a circle is equal to that of a square, then the ratio of their areas is:
(A) $22 : 7$
(B) $14 : 11$
(C) $7 : 22$
(D) $11 : 14$
Step-by-Step Solution
Key Concept: $2\pi r = 4a \Rightarrow a = \pi r / 2$. Ratio $= \dfrac{\pi r^2}{(\pi r / 2)^2} = \dfrac{4}{\pi} = \dfrac{4 \times 7}{22} = \dfrac{14}{11}$.
Sol. (B) $14 : 11$. [1.0 Mark]
Correct Answer: (B) $14 : 11$
