Solve it Quick : Circles and Squares..

Unread post by bristy1588 » Tue Jun 26, 2012 6:43 pm

A circle intersects a square at 8 distinct points. Prove that the sum of the areas of the circle that lies outside the square and the sum of areas of the square which lies outside the square are equal.

Pls. Solve it Quickly. I need it ASAP!

Please recheck your problem, my Geogebra is clearly showing that it's false.

Well,my question is: Isn't it the sum of the areas of the square that lies outside the circle in the last line?
