A piece of wire 132 cm long is bent successively in the shape of an equilateral triangle, a square and a circle. Then area will be longest in shape of

  • Circle

  • Equilateral triangle

  • Square

  • Square


A.

Circle

Side of square = 132/4 = 33 cm.
Area of square = 33 x 33 = 1089 cm2
Side of equilateral triangle  = 132/3 = 44 cm.
Area of equilateral triangle
                        equals space open parentheses fraction numerator square root of 3 over denominator 4 end fraction space cross times space 44 space cross times space 44 close parentheses space cm squared
equals space 484 space square root of 3 space cm squared
space equals space 484 space cross times space 1.7 space equals space 822.8 space cm squared
Circumference of circle  = 132

rightwards double arrow space space space 2 space cross times space 22 over 7 space cross times space straight r space equals space 132
rightwards double arrow space space space space space space straight r space equals space fraction numerator 132 space cross times 7 over denominator 2 space cross times space 22 end fraction space equals space 21 space cm
∴     Area of circle
