The horse can go round the pole to a maximum distance of 12 feet.
\n" ); document.write( "It can go circular.
\n" ); document.write( "so 12 is the radius
\n" ); document.write( "Area it can graze = pi*r^2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Area = pi* 12^2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "= 452 ft^2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
