Answer:
36.00
Solution:

Let the side of square be x and radius of circle be y.

4x+2πy=36 (given)

Area, A=x2+πy2

A=x2+π36-4x2π2

A=x2+1π18-2x2

dAdx=2x+2π18-2x-2

dAdx=2πx+(36-4x)(-2)π

For critical points

dAdx=0

2πx-72+8x=0

x=36π+4

Now,

d2Adx2=2+8π

d2Adx2>0

Hence, area is minimized.

y=18π+4
K [circumference of circle)=2πyk=36π(π+4)
4+ππ×k=36
