Question:

The figure below shows 2 concentric circles with centre O. PQRS is a square inscribed in the outer circle. It also circumscribes the inner circle touching it at points B, C, D and A. What is the ratio of the perimeter of the outer circle to that of the polygon ABCD?

Show Hint

For geometric problems involving inscribed and circumscribed figures, use the properties of the figures to derive relationships between their dimensions.
