Correct Answer: $20 \sqrt{2}\ \mathrm{~cm}$
Solution : The radius of the circle, $r$ = 5 cm Let the side of a square be $a$. Diameter of the circle = 2 × $r$ = 2 × 5 = 10 cm = Diagonal of a square Also, the diagonal of a square = $a\sqrt2$ ⇒ $10=a\sqrt2$ ⇒ $a=5\sqrt2\ \text{cm}$ The perimeter of a square = $4a=4×5\sqrt2=20\sqrt2\ \text{cm}$ Hence, the correct answer is $20\sqrt2\ \text{cm}$.
