Answer:

400m of fencing is required to surround the area.

Explanation:

First we need to find one side of the square. We know the area of a square is:

A = x²

We can use this information to find the length of a side of the square.

10000m² = x²

x = √10000m²

x = 100m

Now that we know what the length of the square yard is, we can calculate the perimeter. The perimeter of a square is:

P = 4x

For our problem:

P = 4(100m)

P = 400m

400m of fencing is required to surround the area.
