Code and output in Python 1-3-B Square the Circle As the geometer his mind applies To square the circle, nor for all his wit Finds the right formula, howe'er he tries -Dante's Paradise canto XXXIII lines 133-135 One of the unsolved (and in fact impossible, since t is transcendental) problems of antiquity is the squaring of the circle: given a circle of a given area, construct a square that has exactly the same area. The constraint is that the only tools you may use are a compass and a straight edge. You will accomplish this impossible task using Python. The only tools you may use are pi and sqrt from math. Ask the user for a floating-point number that is the Radius of a circle. Compute the length of a side of a square that would have the same area as that circle. Demo the program by computing the area and the length of a side using a unit radius (i.e. radius of 1). The area should be a computation on a famous number
