Given that, a square is inscribed in a circle of radius 8 cm  .
The largest square inscribed in the circle can be expressed as,
The diameter of the circle with radius 8 cm   is 16 cm  .  The diagonal of the square is equal to the diameter of the circle, AC=16 cm   .
Determine the side of the square ABCD by using the Pythagoras theorem,
A C 2 =A B 2 +B C 2 16 2 =2A B 2 256 2 =A B 2 A B 2 =128   The area of the square is given by (side) 2  .
So, the area of a square ABCD   is equal to A B 2 =128  cm 2   .
Hence the correct option is 1.
