Will give brainliest-a farmer has 300 ft of fencing with which to enclose a rectangular pen next to a barn. the barn itself will be used as one of the sides of the enclosed area. what is the maximum area that can be enclosed by the fencing? enter your answer in the box. ft^2

The dimensions of the plot must be 120 ft by 30 ft.

To find the distance, use the equation:

distance = √(x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2

using that equation we can plug in our known values, and solve

√(1 - 2)^2 + ( 3 - (-4))^2

√(-1)^2 + (7)^2

√(1) + (49)

√50

to find the square root of 50, we have to rationalize. we can separate the 50 into √25 and √2, which would give us 5√2.

hope this helps!
