a horse is tied to a peg,fixed at a cornorof a square feet and draces an aera of 154 sq.m.the length of the rope?
---> thinking you mean a horse is tied to a corner of a square and the area the horse is in is 154 square meters, and you are asking what the length of the rope is?
this would be 1/4 the area of a circle
A area circle = pi * (R radius)^2
the radius would be how long the rope is
1/4 * pi * R^2 = 154 (solve for R which is length of rope)
R^2 * pi = 616 (154 * 4 = 616)
R^2 = 616/pi
R is approx. 14.003 or 14 meters long
