In the middle of a park there is a fenced off area, and the shape of the fence is a square. If the area of the fenced off portion is 225 square yards, what is the perimeter of the fence?

Respuesta :

The perimeter of fenced off portion is 60 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of fenced off portion= A² = 225 square yards

Taking square root on both sides;

[tex]\sqrt{A^2}=\sqrt{225}\\A=15\ yards[/tex]

Therefore, one side of fenced off portion is 15 yards.

As the fenced off portion is in square form, therefore,

Perimeter = 4*side of square

[tex]P=4*15\\P=60\ yards[/tex]

The perimeter of fenced off portion is 60 yards.
