Shazli took a wire of length 44 cm and bent it into the shape of a circle. Find the radius of that circle. Also find its area. If the same wire is bent into the shape of a square, what will be the length of each of its sides? Which figure encloses more area, the circle or the square? `(Taken pi = (22)/(7))`

Explanation

length of wire=44cm.

circumference of circle=>`2pir` where r is the radius of circle.

=>`2xx22/7xxr=44`

=>`r=7cm`

=>area of circle=`pir^2`=>`22/7xx7xx7=154(cm)^2`

Now the wire is bent into a square...perimeter of square=4s.

`4s=44`

`s=11cm`
