The torque on a current loop depends upon the area of the current loop, when the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of the loops the torque has its maximum value, Τ=I A B We know I and B for all these cases but A depends upon the geometry. The circle has the greatest area so it should provide the greatest torque.
The magnetic moment of this loop is in direction perpendicular to the plane of loop and coming out of the plane. The magnetic field is also directed perpendicularly into the loop. So, magnetic moment magnetic field are antiparallel. The torque acting on the loop, which is given by the cross product of moment and field, is zero since sin 180 = 0
