document.write( "Question 1159566: 6) A square rock garden with sides of 120 feet is placed in the middle of a circular grass yard. If the circumference of the yard is 500 feet, then how much area is covered by grass?
\n" ); document.write( "For all calculations involving π, use π ≈ 3.14.
\n" ); document.write( "Hint: Be careful that you do not do any rounding on answers until the very end of a problem part, or you could create rounding error.
\n" ); document.write( "a) Amount of area covered by grass, measured in square feet = ____ square feet.
\n" ); document.write( "DO NOT TYPE COMMAS. Round your answer to 2 decimal places as needed.
\n" ); document.write( "b) Amount of area covered by grass, measured in square yards = ____ square yards.
\n" ); document.write( "Round your answer to 2 decimal places as needed
