What is the ratio between side of a square and radius of circle whose areas are same?
Finding a circle with the same area as a square is known as squaring the circle. It has been proven to be impossible. (this was done in 1882) I have included some references as links to explain why this cannot be done. If you have a circle inscribed a square, then its radius is 1/2 of the side length of the square or its diameter is the length of a side. If this is what you mean then the ratio of the side of the square to the radius of the circle is 1 to 1/2 or 2 to 1.
