Question

Deon has a pizza with a diameter

Answer 1

The square box is enough to fit the pizza with a diameter of 10 inches inside. Since the area of the square box is more than the area of the pizza, the pizza fits easily in the square box.

What is the area of the circle and the square?

The area of the circle is

Ac = πr² = πd²/4 sq. units

Where r is the radius and d is the diameter of the circle.

The area of the square is given by

As = s² sq. units

Where s is the length of the side of a square.

Calculation:

It is given that a pizza(in a circular shape) with a diameter d = 10 in is to be placed in a square box of the same length as the diameter of the pizza.

So,

The area of pizza is

Ap = Ac = πd²/4 sq. units

     = π(10)²/4

     = 25π

     = 78.54 sq. in

Then, the area of the square box with the length same as the diameter of the pizza is,

As = d²

    = 10²

    = 100 sq. in

Since the area of the square is more than the area of the pizza (100 sq. inch > 78.54 sq. inch), the pizza easily fits into the square box.
