Answer:
Is it possible to have a playground area made from 70 yards of fencing with an area of 324 square yards?
Step-by-step explanation:
Not if it's rectangular.
The max area is a square --> sides = 17.5 yards
Area = 17.5^2 = 306.25 sq. yds.
If it's circular:
C = 2pi*r = 70
r = 35/pi yds.
Area = pi*r^2 = pi*1225/pi^2 = 1225/pi sq yds
Area =~ 389.93 sq. yds.
What if it's a hexagon?
Or an octagon, etc.?
