Squaring the Circle
The Delian Problem, doubling the cube, is considered one of the most famous impossible problems from Greek antiquity. Two others are the trisection of the general angle and the squaring of a circle.
There are three famous Greek problems of antiquity. They are the trisection of the general angle, the doubling of a cube and the squaring of a circle.
From the circumference y, you can find the diameter by dividing by pi. Knowing the diameter, you can calculate the area by either dividing the diameter by 2, squaring it and multiplying by pi, or by squaring the diameter, dividing by 4 and then multiplying by pi (they are mathematically equivalent). The end result is that you can calculate the area of a circle with circumference y from the formula: Area = π(y/2π)² = y²/4π
This is an expression, not an equation. Expressions cannot be solved.

Squaring the circle was proven to be impossible by the German mathematician Ferdinand Lindemann in 1882.

to construct (using a compass and straight-edge) a square with the same area as a given circle using only a finite number of steps. "Squaring the circle" was an ancient problem that has been proved impossible to do.
Squaring the circle, duplicating the cube, and trisecting an angle were constructions that were never accomplished by the Greeks with only a straightedge and compass. These are known as the three classical geometric problems that cannot be solved using only those tools.
