A horse's rope (Posted on 2003-12-05)

Two ranchers shared a circular corral of 10-meter radius. One rancher wanted to tie his horse to one point on the fence and allow him to graze on just half the area of the corral. How long should the horse's rope be to make the portion available to this horse be equal to half the area of the corral?
