The perimeters of a circle, a square and an equilateral triangle are same and their areas are C, S and T respectively. Which of the following statement is true ?
Let the side of equilateral triangle be 'a' units
the radius of circle be 'r' units.
and the side of square be 'b' units
Then,
Perimeter of square = 4b
Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3a
Circumference of circle = $$2*\pi*r$$
Then acc to ques,
=> $$4b = 3a = 2*\pi*r$$
=> b = $$\frac{\pi*r}{2}$$
=> a = $$\frac{2}{3} * \pi*r$$
Now,
area of circle (C) = $$\pi r^2$$
area of equilateral triangle (T) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} * a^2$$
=> area of equilateral triangle (T) =$$\frac{\pi^2 * r^2}{3*\sqrt{3}}$$
area of square (S) = b*b
=> area of square (S) = $$\frac{\pi^2 r^2}{4}$$
Hence it is clearly visible that C > S > T.
