Step-by-step explanation

From the statement, we know that the dog chain is 12 ft long. So the dog can walk inside a circle with a radius r = 12 ft. The area of this circle is:


A=\pi r^2=\pi(12ft)^2=144\pi ft^2\cong452.39ft^2.Answer

The dog can walk around an area of 144π ft² or approximately 452.39 ft².
