area of the circle = 50
area of the circle = \(side^2\)
\(s^2\) = 50
s =\(5\sqrt{2}\)
This is also the diameter of the circle
therefore, radius = \(5/\sqrt{2}\)
area of the circle = \(25\pi/2\)

The area of the square is \(50\).
The length of its side is\( \sqrt{50}\) = diameter of the inscribed circle.
The radius of the inscribed circle = \(\frac{\sqrt{50}}{2}\)
\(\text{Area of the circle} = \pi \times r^2 = \pi \times (\frac{\sqrt{50}}{2})^2 = \pi \frac{50}{4} = \frac{25 \pi}{2}\)
The answer is Choice B
