Diagonal of square = Diameter of circle
=> side *root2 = 8* 2
=> Side * Root 2 = 16
=> Side of square = ( 16/root2) cm
Area = Side^2
= (16/root2) ^2
= 256 / 2
= 128 cm^2
=> side *root2 = 8* 2
=> Side * Root 2 = 16
=> Side of square = ( 16/root2) cm
Area = Side^2
= (16/root2) ^2
= 256 / 2
= 128 cm^2

Radius of circle=8
Then, diameter =16cm
As the diameter of circle is equal =diagonal of square
16= diagonal of square,
Let the side of square =x
By Pythagoras theorem,
16²=x²+x²
256=2x²
128=x²
Then area of square =side²=x²
128=x²
Area of square =128cm²
I hope this will help you
