Question

A landowner wishes to construct a fence around a small section of her property. The fence is rectangular and is 2003-04-05-00-00_files/i0180000.jpg meters wide and 2003-04-05-00-00_files/i0180001.jpg meters long. What is the exact perimeter of the fence? (Recall that the perimeter is the sum of each individual side of a shape.

Answer 1

the correct question in the attached figure

we know that
perimeter of a rectangular fence=2*[long+wide]

`long=2 √(3)/ √(5)`

`wide=3 √(5) / √(7)`


`long=2 √(3)/ √(5) =[2 √(3) * √(5])/5---\ \textgreater \ 2 √(15) /5`


`wide=3 √(5) / √(7)=3 √(5)* √(7)/7----\ \textgreater \ 3 √(35)/7`

perimeter=2*[long+wide]--->
`4 √(15) /5+6 √(35) /7` meters
