document.write( "Notice that under given conditions, the exterior shape is a square of the area 18000 ft^2.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Hence, the side of the exterior square is  \"sqrt%2818000%29\" = 134.16 feet.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "It means that the planted square side length is  134.16 - 3 - 3 = 128.16 feet.    ANSWER\r\n" );
