t is always true that a symmetrical shape will enclose the greatest area for a given
perimeter.

So we end up with a polygon of an infinite number of sides, which is a circle.
So we need to cut the sheets in form of circle to min the wastage...

What is the intent of cutting the shapes? If the intent is to stick it onto the shapes, would it be better to just melt the gold and dip the shapes in the liquid? This would be the most minimal wastage of gold. Totally non cs solution....please pardon me.
