Given:

Dimeter of the circle is d.

As circle lies inside the square. So, the length of the side of square is also d units.

The area of the circle is given as,


\begin{gathered} A=\pi* r^2 \\ r=(d)/(2) \\ \Rightarrow\text{ Area of circle = }\pi*(d^2)/(4) \end{gathered}

Now, the area of the square is,


\begin{gathered} \text{Area of the square = side }^2 \\ \text{Area of the square = d}^2 \end{gathered}

To find the area of paper that wasted when the circle is cut out of the square,


\begin{gathered} A_p=\text{ Area of the square-Area of the circle} \\ =d^2-\pi*(d^2)/(4) \\ =d^2-(\pi(d^2))/(4) \\ =(4d^2-\pi(d^2))/(4) \end{gathered}

Answer: option D) is correct.
