Question

a 3 m wide path runs outside and around a square park of side 99m.find the area of the path​

Answer 1

Let the area and side of the square park be A and S respectively.

S=99 m

A=S²=99²=9801 m²

Let the area and side of the square park with the path be a and s respectively.

s=99+3+3=105 m

a=s²=105²=11025 m²

Area of the pathway=a-A=11025-9801=1224 m²
