hello!

so area of a square is calculated by this equation

s^2 = a

which means if you multiply two sides together you get the area

what you want to do now is to find a side of the square

plug in the 900 square meters

s^2 = 900

square root both sides to isoate the variable

s = 30 meters

this means that one side is 30 meters

since it is a SQUARE all four sides are equal

just multiply 30 by 4 and that will get the amount of fencing you'll need

30*4 = 1200 meters

you will need 1200 meters of fencing

WAIT

there is a possibility that one side of the house has already enclosed one side of the fence

so if that's the deal then

30*3 = 900meters

IF ONE SIDE OF THE HOUSE IS ALREADY ENLCOSING ONCE SIDE THEN YOU WILL NEED 900 meters of fencing.

What's the sum of 5 feet 9 inches in 12 ft and 3 in
galben [10]
First convert everything into inches.

1 foot = 12 in
5 feet = 5*12 = 60 in
12 feet = 12*12 = 144 in

Now add them together

60 + 9 + 144 + 3 = 216 in

or

18 feet

Hope this helps :)
