Question

A 3m wide path is built along the boundary outside a square Park of side 30m. Find the area of the path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Area of the Path is 396cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the figure the area of the path can be found by subtracting the area of the park from the area of the park including path.

Side of outer square=36cm  (adding the width of path from both sides)

Side of inner square=30cm

wkt, area of square=side²

∴Area of Path= Area of outer square - Area of inner square

⇒Area of Path=36²-30²

⇒Area of Path=1296-900

⇒Area of Path=396cm²
