.
The dog is tethered at the corner,so if he starts at the end of his leash on the thirty foot side,
he can travel in a 24 foot radius until his leash hits the 20 foot side, or 3/4 the area of a 24 foot radius circle.
Then, bending his 24 foot leash around the 20 foot corner, he can travel 1/4 of a 4ft radius circle.
