Best Answer

The area is not sufficient information to determine the length and width. First of all, there is no reason to suppose that the area is rectangular as opposed to circular or triangular or some other simple or complicated shape. Even if, on the basis that the question asks for length and width, you assume that it is a rectangle, there are infinitely many possible answers: ranging from a nearly square area to an extremely long, very thin strip.

You would need 70 yards of Fencing to enclose a rectangular shaped yard with dimensions of 20 yards by 15 yards. This is calculated by adding up all four sides of the yard: 20 + 20 + 15 + 15 = 70 yards.

Which one would you use to measure a fence a yard stick or a meter stick?

A yardstick is typically used to measure shorter distances in feet and inches, while a meter stick is used for longer distances in meters or centimeters. For measuring a fence, it would be more appropriate to use a meter stick as it is likely to be longer than a yardstick's range.


What size room is 749 square feet?

There is no way to compute the room dimensions from square footage alone. A room shaped like a rectangle and one shaped like a circle could have the same square footage, but different meaurements. You would have to know the shape of the room, and the length of at least one wall (maybe more, depending on the shape).For example, a room measuring 749 square feet could have dimensions of:a. A square measuring 27.38 on all four sides;b. A rectangle measuring 10 ft wide by 74.9 feet long;c. A rectangle measuring 100 feet wide by 7.49 feet long;d. An L-shaped room in which one section is 20 feet by 20 feet, and the second section is 20 feet by 17.45 feet;e. A circle-shaped room measuring 30.88 feet across;... or a million other possibilities.


Electric fence are not connected to the ground in the circuit?

A short answer:An electric fence is connected to the ground only when an animal or a human being touches it to complete a circuit from the fence to the ground.A longer answer:The wires of an electric fence are not connected directly to the ground because, if that was done, the fence would be shorted out and would not be able to do its job!This is how an electric fence is actually hooked-up: the electric fence is connected to one side of a specially designed high voltage source and the return side of that source is connected to the ground.Then, whenever the skin of any animal - or human - touches the wire whilst standing on the ground in bare feet, they get a high-voltage (10,000) DC electric pulse from the electric fence. The shocks are designed to be only enough to make them jump back from the fence, not to "electrocute" them so badly as to cause serious injury or death.


How many square feet of barb wire will it take to fence 3 acres of land?

You don't want to know the square feet of barb wahr. You only want the feet ...how far it is around the outside of the 3 acres.The answer is: It could be a lot of different things.-- The shortest possible amount of fence that can enclose 3 acres is 1,281.5 feet.That's what you need if your 3 acres is in a circle 408 feet across.-- If your 3 acres needs to have straight sides, then the shortest possible fence toenclose it is 1,446 feet. That's what you need if your 3 acres is a square, 361.5 feeton every side.-- If it's not a square, then the more rectangular it is ... long and narrow ... the morefence you need to enclose it.For just one example: If the field is 120' by 1,089', then it covers exactly 3 acres,and you need 2,418 feet of fence to enclose it.The closer to square it is, the less fence you need.

How much maximum area can 100 ft of fence hold in a rectangle?

The maximum area possible using 100 feet of fencing is that inside a circular fence. But, since you asked about a rectangular fence: a 25x25 fence would hold 625 square feet. a 10x40 fence would hold 400 square feet. a 5x45 fence would hold 225 square feet. As you can see, the square is the rectangle that encompasses the largest area, as it is closest to a circle.
