the height of the wall is 10 ft

the area of each section is 10

NOw divide the height of the wall in equal 5 parts.

10/5 = 2 ft ( height of each section)

as an area of the section is 10

2 x l = 10

l = 10/2

l = 5 ft

so the length of each section is 5 ft

so total length of the wall is 5 x 5 = 25 square ft.
