Answer:

244.92 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out the surface area of 1 fence post.

It has 2 circular parts (a bottom and a top)

r = d / 2

r = 1 / 2

r = 0.5 feet.

Area = 3.14 * 0.5^2

area = 3.14 * 0.25

Area = 0.785

Each post has 2 such shapes. 2 * 0.785 = 1.57

There are 12 posts with areas of 1.57 on the bottom and top  = 18.84 ft^2

Find the area of the long part of the post

h = 6 feet

circumference = 2* pi * r

circumference = 2* 3.14 * .5

circumference = 3.14

The height is 6 feet.

The area of the body of the pole 6 *circumference = 6 * 3.14 = 18.84 ft^2

There are 12 poles.

Total area = 12 *18.84 ft^2 =  226.08

Total area = 12 bodies + 24 ends

Total area = 226.08 + 18.84

Total area = 244.92

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

120 tries

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try 5 different wires in the first connection.

Then you have 4 wires left, so you try 4 wires in the second connection. Remember, you are now trying 4 wires for each of the first 5, so up to here you already made 4 * 5 tries = 20 tries.

Next you try 3, then 2, then you have 1 left.

Number of tries: 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120

Answer: 120 tries
