He will be making a right triangle with the legs being 24 x 45. The diagonal will be the hypotenuse of the triangle. To find the amount of fencing we need the perimeter of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 45^2 = c^2
576 + 2025 = c^2
2601 = c^2
sqrt 2601 = c
c = 51
Adding the three lengths the total fencing needed is
51+24+45=120 meters
In the given question we can see that the information,Georgina ran a distance of 3/8 mile in 3 minutes is already provided.
So
In 3 minutes Georgina can run a distance of = 3/8 miles
Then In 1 minute Georgina can run a distance of = 3/(8 * 3) miles
= 3/24 miles
= 1/8 miles.
So it can be said now that in 1 minute the distance that
Georgina can cover is 1/8 miles. If required it can be converted to decimal
value as well.
