Question

5 m wide path is built inside a rectangular filed of size 550m multiple 360m. Find the area of the path

Answer 1

In rectangle abcd ( look at picture)
Length = 550m
Breadth = 360 m
Area of rectangle abcd = length x breadth
= 550 x 360 m^2
= 198000 m^2
In rectangle EFGH (look at picture)
Length = 550-10 = 540 m
Breadth = 360-10 = 350m
Area of rectangle EFGH = length x breadth
= 540 x 350 m^2
= 189000 m^2
Area of path =
area of rectangle abcd - area of rectangle EFGH
Area of path = 198000 - 189000
= 9000 m^2
