You can put this solution on YOUR website! the rope is 10 m
tied at one end of a pole.
..
It can move in the field maximum from one side of the square to the other taking a circular path.
..
It can graze only an area of 1/4 of the area of a circle with radius 10m.
..
Area of circle with radius 10 = pi*10^2
Area = 314 sq. m
1/4 of 314 = 78.5 sq. m
