Answer:
radius = 7cm
Circle acquire more area
Step-by-step explanation:
wire used = perimeter of circle and square
since here we know the perimeter of square
Perimeter of a square = 4a
= 4(11)
= 44cm
To find Radius of circle we know the circumference,
so,
2πr = 44
2*22/7*r = 44
r = 44 × 7/22 * 1/2
r = 7 cm
Area of square = side ²
= 11cm * 11cm
= 121cm²
Area of circle = πr²
= 22/7*7*7
= 154cm²
so here the circle acquires more area and radius is 7cm.
