Question

Which statement best describes where the StartFraction pi Over 4 EndFraction comes from in the formula derivation? It is the ratio of the area of the square to the area of the circle from a cross section. It is the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the square from a cross section. It is the difference of the area of the square and the area of the circle from a cross section. It is the sum of the area of the square and the area of the circle from a cross sectio

Answer 1

Adding 12 to the circle area is equal to the square area.

Or

s2 = 12 + A

Where

s = side of square

A = area of circle

So

s2 = 12 + 36

s2 = 48

Solve this for s to get the side length
