Answer:

1.) Circle

2.) It gives the maximum area among others

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the fencing material = 100 yard. That means circumference = 100

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

100 =  2πr

r = 50/ π

Area of a circle = πr^2

Area of a circle =  π × (50/π)^2

= 2500/ π

= 795.77 squared yard

If the area of Pentagon is calculated, we will get 688 squared yard.

Also, if the area hexagon is calculated, we will get 716 square yard
