Check the picture below, so, that'd be the square inscribed in the circle.
so... hmm the diagonals for the square are the diameter of the circle, and keep in mind that the radius of a circle is half the diameter, so let's find the diameter.

that means the radius r = 5.
now, what's the center? well, the Midpoint of the diagonals, is really the center of the circle, let's check,
so, now we know the center coordinates and the radius, let's plug them in,

The expected length of code for one encoded symbol is
where is the probability of picking the letter
, and
is the length of code needed to encode
.
is given to us, and we have
so that we expect a contribution of
bits to the code per encoded letter. For a string of length , we would then expect
.
By definition of variance, we have
For a string consisting of one letter, we have
so that the variance for the length such a string is
"squared" bits per encoded letter. For a string of length , we would get
.
