Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not exactly as clear as it could be. The square shape must have 4 sides. We must assume that the 4th side is a building, but it sure is big.

However working with what we have, 450 has to be cut into 3 parts. 450 / 3 = 150

So each side of fencing has to be 150

Area =s^2

s = 150

Area = 150^2

Area = 22500 square feet.

That's slightly bigger than 21780. What should be the size of the fence sides?

Take the square root of 21780 which is 147.6

That will be the size of each side of the 3 sides needed.
