Question

a 3 metre wide path runs outside and around a rectangular Park of length 125 M and breadth 65 M find the area of the path

Answer 1

Length of outer rectangle = 125 + 3+3
=131 m
Width of outer rectangle = 65+3+3
=71 m
Area of path = Area of outer rectangle - Area of inner rectangle
=131*71 - 125*65
=9301 - 8125
=1176 m sq.
