It shouldn't if the area of the two shapes is the same. The square will obviously jut out in places, but will cut inside the circle in other places.

the area of a square is not the same as the area of a circle.area of square is length times width and the area of a circle is pie(about 3.14) times radius squared

The formula for the area of a square is: A = s²
The formula for the area of a circle is: A = πr²

Examine the two formulas. the area is formulated by using different variables.

may be u have made a mistake in drawing.
consider this:
length of side of square=x
area of square=x*x=area of circle
but, area of circle=pi*radius*radius
hence x*x=pi*r*r
so, x=sqrt(pi)*r
as x>r, it seems square acquires more area.
but actually they have same area.
