Best answer 2 2 votes The diagonal of the square will be the diameter of the circle. The radius is 1, so the diameter is 2. Let x= one side of Square, So the area will be $x^{2}$ Using the Pythagorean theorem (and knowing that all sides of a square are congruent) we get: $x^{2} $+ $x^{2}$ = $2^{2}$ $2x^{2}$ = 4 Area of Square($x^{2}$) = 2 Hence,Option(B)2 is the correct choice.
