The correct option is
C 4
√ALet a,b,c,d be sides of the cyclic quadrilateral.
Given area is A sq. units
Let the perimeter be P=a+b+c+d
Area of a cyclic quadrilateral is given by √(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d) (Brahmagupta's formula)where s=a+b+c+d2
therefore, A=√(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d)
we know that A.M.≥G.M.
⟹(s−a)+(s−b)+(s−c)+(s−d)4≥4√(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d)
⟹4s−(a+b+c+d)4≥4√(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d)
⟹2s4≥4√(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d)
⟹a+b+c+d4≥(√(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)(s−d))12
⟹P4≥(A)12
therefore the least perimeter of the cyclic quadrilateral with area A sq units is 4√A
