The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

The diameter of the circle is equal to the side of the square.

Diameter = 10 cm
\(r = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{10 \text{ cm}}{2} = 5 \text{ cm}\)
\(\text{Area of circle} = \pi r^2 = \pi \times 5^2 = 25\pi \text{ cm}^2\)

Area of square = side² = 10² = 100 cm²
Area of the region between the square and the circle:
= Area of square - Area of circle = 100 cm² - 25π cm² = 25(4 - π) cm²
