Answer:

942 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows the area to be 3/4 of that of a circle of radius 20 ft. The area of a circle is given by ...

A = πr² = π(20 ft)² = 400π ft²

Then 3/4 of that area is ...

dog run = (3/4)(400π ft²) = 300π ft² ≈ 942.48 ft²

The area of the dog's run is about 942 ft².
