Question

A 8m wide Path runs outside and around a rectangular park of

length 120m and 80m. Find the area of Path.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of rectangular park= l×b

$= {(120 \times 80)m}^{2} \\ \\ = {9600m}^{2}$

Since 8m path runs outside the park, so length along the path is 136m and breadth is 96m

Area of park with path=

$136 \times 96 \\ \\ = {13056m}^{2}$

Area of path= area of rectangular park with path- area of path

$= {(13056 - 9600)m}^{2} \\ \\ = 3456 {m}^{2}$

So final answer is 3456m^2

Hope it helps you from my side :)

Answer 2

Answer:

Area of path= area of rectangular park with path- area of path

= (13056 − 9600)m^2 = 3456m^2.
