1. ANS:1:2
   EXPLANATION:
   If a circle is circumscribed around a square, the area of
   the circle is π / 2 (about 1.57) times the area of the
   square.
   If a circle is inscribed in the square, the area of the
   circle is π / 4 (about 0.79) times the area of the square.
   SO,
   Ratio of area of inner to outer circle is,
   =(pi/2*a^2)/(pi/4*a^2)
   = 1/2
   Ans=1:2
