120 ft?

Answer : The area the fence encloses is, 120 ft²

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that Penelope built a fence that is 10 feet by 12 feet which will resemble the shape of rectangle.

As we know that:

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

Given:

Length = 12 feet

Breadth = 10 feet

Now put all the values in the above formula, we get the area of fence encloses.

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

Area of rectangle = 12 feet × 10 feet

Area of rectangle = 120 feet² = 120 ft²

Therefore, the area the fence encloses is, 120 ft²
