B Correct answer
Explanation

The largest circle inside a square has a diameter equal to the side of the square. Here, diameter = 14 cm, so radius r = 7 cm. Area = pi * r^2 = (22/7) * 7 * 7 = 154 cm^2.

AI explanation

The largest circle that can be drawn inside a square has a diameter equal to the side of the square. The diameter is 14 cm, making the radius 7 cm. Using the area of a circle formula, pi times radius squared, we get pi times 7 squared, which is 22 over 7 times 49. This calculates to 154 cm2.
