aread of the circle inscribed a square.

Suppose you are given a square with an inscribed circle as shown below. If the area of the square is 85 m2 what is the area of the circle? (use 3.14159 as your approximation for Pi and round your answer to two decimal places)

This is very straightforward. I assume the circle is touching the sides of the square, since you didn't include "as shown below".

The sides of the square can be found by . You are given A. Solve for x. Half that will be the radius of the circle.
