Comparing Areas of Circle and Square

Easy Quantitative Comparisons Geometry Comparisons

Consider a circle with a radius of 3 units. First, calculate the area of this circle. Next, compare it to the area of a square whose side length is equal to the diameter of the circle. What is the relationship between the two areas?

Use the following formulas:

  • Area of a circle: $$A_{circle} = ext{π} r^2$$
  • Area of a square: $$A_{square} = s^2$$
  • Diameter of a circle: $$d = 2r$$
