if the area given is 100 square inches you can use 10" by 10" duct

due to a black art known as aerodynamics or compressible fluid flow,

you will get the same back pressure in a 10" diameter round duct

and a 2" x 50" duct considerably more back pressure

a nice manufactured 90 will take as much back pressure as 50' of duct

a tight curved 90 will take as much as 100 feet of duct

fans have a curve that goes from maximum cfm at no pressure

to minimum cfm at max pressure

the fan will require the most power when cfm * pressure is highest

simple as rocket science i guess
