• The diagonal of a square garden is 24 feet. Jane wants to build a fence around the garden. In order to buy enough fencing, Jane needs to find the perimeter of the garden. And find the length of the side of the square garden to the nearest foot.

• Answer:

  The sum of the squares of two sides equals the square of the diagonal. Since the garden is square, both sides are the same. 2s^2 = 24^2 2s^2 = 5376 s^2 = 5376/2 = 2688 s = sqrt(2688) = 51.84 feet per side which rounds to 52 feet For 4 sides, she'll need 4 * 52 or 208 feet of fencing
