Question

a path 2 m wide is built along the border and inside a square garden of side 40 Find the area of the path​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ANSWER

Let ABCD, the square garden of side= 40 m.

PQRS is the region inside the garden.

so,

PQ = (40 -2-2 ) = 36 m

also

PS = ( 40 – 2 – 2 ) = 36 m 

(i) Area of the path = Area of ABCD – Area of PQRS 

= [( 40 x 40) – (36 x 36)]

= 1600 – 1296

= 304 sq.m
