Given, Total length of the wire=44cm
∴ The circumference of the circle=2πr=44cm
⇒2× 7/22 ×r=44
⇒r= 2×22/44×7 =7cm
Now, Area of the circle=πr
2 = 7/22 ×7×7=154cm
2
Now the wire is converted into square,
Then perimeter of square=44cm
⇒4× side=44
⇒ side= 4/44 =11cm
Now, area of square=side×side=11×11=121cm
2
Therefore, on comparing the area of circle is greater than that of square, so the circle enclosed more area.
