Too small to see at this scale. The ring marks its true-scale position, not its area. The shape has not been enlarged.
10 mm round button
A round button is a small disc-shaped fastener sewn onto clothing to join fabric.

Too small to see at this scale. The ring marks its true-scale position, not its area. The shape has not been enlarged.
Both shapes share one area scale. Known rectangular footprints keep their physical sides. Other shapes are equal-area squares, not maps; they do not prove a physical fit.
A little perspective
The area of a 10 mm round button is about 7,850,000 times 10 square micrometres.
