The answer is 224 cm²
Given: A square is inscribed in a circle
Radius of the circle r = 14 cm
To find: Measurement of area outside the square but inside the circle
Solution:
Area outside the square = area of circle - area of square
Now find area of circle and square
⇒ Area of circle = π r² = = 22(2)(14) = 616 cm²
When a square inscribed in circle the diameter of circle will be equal to the diagonal of square
As we know diagonal of a square = where a is side
And diameter of circle d = 2r
⇒
⇒
⇒ =
Side of square a = = 14√2 [ from data r = 14 ]
⇒ Area of square = (side)² = (14√2)² = 196 × 2 = 392 cm²
Therefore, area outside the square = 616 cm² - 392 cm² = 224 cm²
Measurement of area outside the square = 224 cm²
