The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the side of a square to the radius of a circle when their areas are equal. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Variables:** Let the side of the square be \( a \) and the radius of the circle be \( r \). 2. **Write the Area Formulas:** The area of the square is given by: \[ \text{Area of square} = a^2 \] The area of the circle is given by: \[ \text{Area of circle} = \pi r^2 \] 3. **Set the Areas Equal:** According to the problem, the areas of the square and the circle are the same: \[ a^2 = \pi r^2 \] 4. **Rearrange the Equation:** To find the relationship between \( a \) and \( r \), we can rearrange the equation: \[ \frac{a^2}{r^2} = \pi \] 5. **Take the Square Root:** Taking the square root of both sides gives: \[ \frac{a}{r} = \sqrt{\pi} \] 6. **Express the Ratio:** Therefore, the ratio of the side of the square to the radius of the circle is: \[ \frac{a}{r} = \sqrt{\pi} \] ### Final Answer: The ratio of the side of the square to the radius of the circle is \( \sqrt{\pi} : 1 \). ---
