Jamila keeps alpacas on a 1-acre, square lot near her home.

She has 6 alpacas and wants to build a fence diagonally to split the herd in two.

If an acre is 209 feet long, how many feet, to the nearest foot, of fencing does Jamila need?

A square side = 209 ft. A diagonal = side·√2 = 209√2 ≈ 209·1.41421356 ≈ 295.6 ft.

To the nearest foot she needs 296 feet of fencing.
