Need help please (50 points at stake) The farmer's plan is to fence in a strip of his land for herding his cattle so that it forms a square. He decides to place the four corner post of the fence and then place 15 posts between each corner post so that there is a distance of 8 and 1/8 feet between each post around the entire fenced-in area. Calculate the area and perimeter of this fenced-in area.

15 posts plus 2 corner posts = 17 posts. With 17 posts there would be 16 spaces each side.

The space between each is 8 1/8 feet.

The length of one side is the number of spaces multiplied by the distance between each space.

Total length of one side = 16 spaces x 8 1/8 feet = 130 feet

Area = length x width.

It’s a square shape so area = 130 x 130 = 16,900 square feet

Perimeter is the distance around the square, this would be the length of one side x the number of sides.

Perimeter = 130 x 4 = 520 feet

16.9 times 2.85
