Aneighborhood was given a vacant lot in the shape of a rectangle on which to build a park. the base of the lot is 72.2 feet and the width is 50 feet. complete the following statements about the park they can build on the lot. if the neighborhood wants to know the size of the park it can build on the lot, it needs to find the . what size will the park be? if the neighborhood wants to know the amount of fencing needed to go around the park, it will need to find the . what is the exact amount of fencing they will need?

A rectangular lot with dimensions 72.2 feet long and 50 feet wide is given.

1. We need to find the AREA of the rectangular lot in order to find the size of the park.

As, Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

i.e. Area of the lot = 72.2 × 50

i.e. Area of the lot = 3610 feet²

Hence, the size of the park is 3610 feet².

2. We need to find the PERIMETER of the rectangular lot in order to find the amount of fencing needed.

As, Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × ( Length + Width )

i.e. Perimeter of the lot  = 2 × ( 72.2 + 50 )

i.e. Perimeter of the lot  = 2 × 122.2

i.e. Perimeter of the lot  = 244.4 feet.

Hence, the amount of fencing needed for the park of the park is 244.4 feet.
