A square is inscribed in a circle with a radius of 5 cm. What is the area of the square?

A 25 cm^2
B 50 cm^2
C 75 cm^2
D 100 cm^2

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

The diagonal of the inscribed square is equal to the diameter of the circle. Diameter = 2 * radius = 2 * 5 = 10 cm. If 's' is the side of the square, then s^2 + s^2 = 10^2, so 2s^2 = 100, and s^2 = 50. The area of the square is s^2, which is 50 cm^2.
