  1. The perimeters of a circle, a square and an equilateral triangle are same and their areas are C, S and T respectively. Which of the following statement is true ?
    1. C = S = T
    2. C > S > T
    3. C < S < T
    4. S < C < T
Correct Option: B

Radius of circle = x cm.
Side of square = y cm.
Side of equilateral triangle = z cm.
Circumference of circle = Perimeter of square = Perimeter of equilateral triangle
⇒ 2πx = 4y = 3z

⇒ x =
4y
=
2y
z =
4y

Area of circle ‘C’ = πx²
= π ×

Area of square ‘S’ = y²
Area of triangle ‘T’ =
