Garrett wants to make a circular pond in his yard and put a low fence around the edge. What is the largest area pond Garrett can make if he has 136 feet of fencing?

21.66 square feet

468.98 square feet>>>>i think

1472.61 square feet

14,519.36 square feet
Answered by Vitek
Your answer is correct. The 136 feet will make the circumference of a circle which is 2*pi*R where R is the radius, so you can calculate the radius of the circle by dividing 136 by 2*pi. Next, you can obtain the area of this circle, which will be the same as the area of the pond, by using the formula Area = pi*R^2. Try it out!

Are you sure 468.98 is the right answer?
Answered by Reiny
no, your choice is not correct

circumference = 136
2πr = 136
r = 68/π

area = π r^2
= π(68/π)^2 = 1471.86
