Answer:

Perimeter square = 8 sqrt(pi)

Explanation:

The perimeter of a square is 4*s

The area of a circle is Area = pi * r^2

The circumference of a circle is C = 2*pi * r

C = 4 pi

4pi = 2*pi * r

r = 2

So the area of the circle is pi * r^2 = pi * 2^2 = 4pi

The square has the same area

Area = 4*pi

Square = 4*pi

s^2 = 4*pi

s = sqrt(4*pi)

s = 2*sqrt(pi)

The perimeter = 4 * 2 * sqrt(pi)

The perimeter = 8 * sqrt(pi)
