Question

The area of the rectangular garden shown is 19.5 square meters. How many meters of fencing are needed to go around the​ garden? Explain.

Answer 1

17.66m

Explanation:

Let the area of the rectangular garden be L²

A = L²

19.5 = L²

L = √19.5

L = 4.416

Perimeter = 4L

Perimeter = 4(4.416)

Perimeter of the garden =17.66m

Hence the number of meters of fencing that are needed to go around the​ garden is 17.66m
