Question 13
The figure below shows two concentric circles with centre 0. PQRS is a square, inscribed in the outer circle. It also circumscribes the inner circle, touching it at points B, C, D and A. What is the ratio of the perimeter of the outer circle to that of polygon ABCD?
Solution
By symmetry, it is safe to assume that the polygon ABCD is a square. So, AB = PO. The perimeter of the inner square = 4 AB. The perimeter of the outer circle = $$ 2 \pi \times AB$$
So, ratio = $$ \frac{2 \pi \times AB}{4AB}$$ = $$ \frac{\pi}{2}$$
