To find the number of pillars required, we need to calculate the perimeter of the triangular plot and then divide it by the distance between each pillar.
The perimeter of the triangular plot can be found by adding the lengths of the three sides:
Perimeter = 25 + 40 + 50 = 115 feet
Since the pillars are set 5 feet apart, we divide the perimeter by 5:
Number of pillars = Perimeter / Distance between each pillar
Number of pillars = 115 / 5 = 23
Therefore, 23 pillars will be required to surround the plot.
A triangular plot with sides of 25 feet, 40 feet, and 50 feet is to be surrounded by a fence built on Pillars set 5 feet apart. how many pillars will be required to surrounded the plot ?
