The answer depends on how much chicken wire he has. The greatest area is enclosed if it is in the form of a circle with the quantity as the perimeter.
So, if he has L metres of chicken wire, he can make a circular shape of 2*pi*r = L
where r is the radius.
So r = L/(2*pi) metres.
Then area = pi*r2 = pi*[L/(2*pi)]2 metres = L2/(4*pi) sq metres
50 pi meters
How much fencing is required to enclose a circular garden with a radius of 14 meters? (Use 3.14 for π) _
To answer this question and ones like it, try exaggerating. Does it take the same amount of force to throw a cannon ball 3 meters as it does to throw a golf ball 3 meters?
Area cannot be measured in metres and a length of 15 metres can enclose any area up to 17.9 square metres.
6 kilometres.
50 pi meters
Perimeter = 10+10+10+10 = 40 meters of wire is needed
36 meters, plus a couple more cm to twist the ends together.
18 meters of fencing. You simply need to find the circumference of the rectangle.

How much fencing is required to enclose a circular garden with a radius of 14 meters? (Use 3.14 for π) _
Fencing needed: 2*pi*18 = just over 113 meters
The length of the field is 250 meters. As we know the field is a rectangle, you can divide the amount of fencing in 2, which would be 400 meters. This will provide you with enough fencing for one end and one side. To determine the actual length of the side you would take your 400 meters and subtract the end length which is 150 meters, leaving you with a side length of 250 meters.
The pieces would be arranged 4 by 4, That is 20 meters by 20 meters or 400 square meters.
There are 0.0254 meters in one inch. Therefore to get amount of inches in meters, value in meters has to be divided by amount of meters in one inch: 140 meters = [meters] / 0.0254 = 140 / 0.0254 = 5511.81 inches
There are 0.9144 meters in one yard. Therefore to get amount of yards in meters, value in meters has to be divided by amount or meters in one yard: 3 meters = [meters] / 0.9144 = 3 / 0.9144 = 3.2808 yards
There are 0.3048 meters in one foot. Therefore to get amount of feet in meters, value of meters has to be divided by amount of meters in one foot: 262838 meters = [meters] / 0.3048 = 262838 / 0.3048 = 862329.39 feet
