The dog's area will be a circle, with radius 5m, and the center of the circle is at the corner of the house. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The area of a circle with 5m radius is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"A=Pi%2Ar%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=Pi%2A5%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=Pi%2A25\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "But the dog can not go through the walls of the house, so his area outside the house would be three quarters (3/4) of the total area.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"A=%283%2F4%29%2APi%2A25\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=59m%5E2\"\r
