A leach free area for dogs is to be created in a field behind a recreation centre. what length of fencing will be required, if the plans show an irregular pentagonal area with vertices at (2,0), (1,6), (8,9), (10,7)and (6,0)?( one unit represents 10m)

Answer 1

Find the distance of all sides using the distance formula :
sqr root[(x2-x1)^2 - (y2-y1)^2]
Then once you have the distances, multiply each one of the distances by 10, then add that together.
