Detailed Solution

Given that, Circumference of the circle is 50 cm.
Determine the radius of the circle by using its circumference.
2πr=50    Solve the equation for r.
r= 50 2π   r= 25 π   Determine the diameter D of the circle by multiplying the value of r by 2.
D= 50 π   The diameter D of the circle represents the diagonal of the square.
Determine the side S of the square that can be inserted into the circle by using D=S 2  .
50 π =S 2   S= 25 2 π  
Therefore, side of the square present in the circle 25 2 π   cm.
Hence the correct option is 1.
