The circumscribing square has sides of length 155 cm.
The inscribed square has diagonals of 155 cm and so has sides of 155/sqrt(2) cm.
The sides of a circumscribing square is always larger than those of the inscribed square by sqrt(2) = 1.4142 (approx).
The area of a circumscribing square is always larger twice as large as that of the inscribed square.

What shapes contains a circle?
another, larger circle, perhaps. or a larger shape than the circle.
Equation for a circle centered at the origin should one increase to make a circle larger?
Yes, increase the constant term to make the circle larger.
How do you find the gap of one cirlcle in a larger circle?
Find the area of both circles (A = πr2) and subtract the area of the larger circle from that of the smaller circle inside it.
What A circle with a radius of 3 cm shares a center with another circle that has a radius of 5 cm. Find the probability that a randomly selected point is in the larger circle but not in the smaller ci?
We can look at total areas (and ignore units-they're all the same). The smaller circle has an area of 9pi, and the larger circle has an area of 25pi. The smaller circle is entirely inside of the larger circle. So anything not in the smaller circle is in the larger circle. 16pi square centimeters are part of only the larger circle. 16pi/25pi=.64. So the desired probability is .64.
What is a circle with a little circle in it called?
An annulus. Area = pi (R2 - r2) when R is radius of larger circle and r is radius of smaller circle.
Is a smaller circle or larger circle easier?
depending on the circles equation..a larger circle is easier

Which is larger the perimeter of a 2' 4' rectangle or the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 36?
The circumference of the circle is larger than the perimeter of the rectangle.
What percent larger is the area of a 5in circle as compared to a 4in circle?
The area of a 5-inch circle is: 19.6 square inches.The area of a 4-inch circle is: 12.6 square inches.The area of the 5-inch circle is 55.6% larger than the 4-inch circle
Which number in the standard equation for a circle centered at the origin should one increase to make the circle larger?
x2 + y2 = r2, the equation of a circle centered at the origin. If you want to make the circle larger, increase the radius length.
What is a circle with a little circle in it called?
An annulus. Area = pi (R2 - r2) when R is radius of larger circle and r is radius of smaller circle.
If the area of one circle is four times as large as a smaller circle with radius of 3 inchesThe radius of the larger circle is?
6 inches pi*32 = 9*pi square inches (smaller circle) pi*62 = 36*pi square inches (larger circle)
Can the area of a circle be larger than the circumference?
N
What is the difference between inscribed and circumscribed in integration?
When rectangles are inscribed, they lie entirely inside the area you're calculating. They never cross over the curve that bounds the area. Circumscribed rectangles cross over the curve and lie partially outside of the area. Circumscribed rectangles always yield a larger area than inscribed rectangles.
