a. Length of the fence around the field = perimeter of quarter circle = 892.7 ft.

b. The area of the outfield is about 39,584 sq. ft..

What is the Perimeter of a Quarter Circle?

Perimeter of circle = 2πr

Perimeter of a quarter circle = 2r + 1/4(2πr).

a. The length of the fence around the field = perimeter of the quarter circle fence

= 2r + 1/4(2πr).

r = 250 ft

Plug in the value

The length of the fence around the field = 2(250) + 1/4(2 × π × 250)

= 892.7 ft.

b. Size of the outfield = area of the full field (quarter circle) - area of the infield (cicle)

= 1/4(πR²) - πr²

R = radius of the full field = 250 ft

r = radius of the infield = 110/2 = 55 ft

Plug in the values

Size of the outfield = 1/4(π × 250²) - π × 55²

= 49,087 - 9,503

= 39,584 sq. ft.
