Let the square sheet PQRS have all sides as
sArea of circle Y with radius
r insribed in it would be
\frac{πs^2}{4}Remember - Equilateral parallelogram is a RhombusLet the rhombus sheet ABCD have all sides as
a(Refer to the figure below)
In △AXD;
∠DAX = 60°
∠ADX = 30°
∠AXD = 90° (since, diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular)
Using the 30°-60°-90° property;
AX (opposite to 30°) =
\frac{a}{2}DX (opposite to 60°) =
\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2}In order to find the radius of circle X inscribed in rhombus ABCD, we can equate the area in △AXD
i.e.
\frac{1}{2}(\frac{a}{2})(\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2}) = \frac{1}{2}(a)(r)\frac{\sqrt{3}a^2}{4} = arr = \frac{\sqrt{3}a}{4}We have been given - the areas of the two circles will be equal
So,
π(\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{4})^2 = \frac{πs^2}{4}\frac{3a^2}{16} = \frac{s^2}{4}\frac{3a^2}{4} = s^2s = \frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2}Now, Area of rhombus ABCD =
\frac{1}{2}x diagonal AC x diagonal BD =
\frac{1}{2}(a)(\sqrt{3}a) = \frac{\sqrt{3}a^2}{2}, and
Area of square PQRS =
s^2 = (\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2})^2 = \frac{3a^2}{4}Required ratio =
(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})(\frac{4}{3}) = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}Attachment:
