Louis is building a fence for a rectangular garden. He can afford 120 feet of fence and wants the area to be 875 square feet. In two or more complete sentences, explain the algebraic model, calculations, and reasoning necessary to
determine the dimensions of the rectangular area.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
