Answer:

The circumference of the circle is approximately 19.8 centimetres.

Explanation:

If the square has an area of 40 square centimetres, that means that the side length of the square is √40, or 2√10

The side length will be the diameter of the circle. Which is all we need to find its circumference. The circumference of a circle is equal to pi times its diameter, so we say:

c = πd

c = 3.14 × 2√10

c = 6.28√10

c = 6.28 × 3.16

c = 19.8
