Question

). A path 5 m wide runs along inside a square park of side 90 m. Find area of
the path.
​

Answer 1

$\bold{Given}$

A path of 5 m wide runs along sides , inside a square park of side 90 cm.

So the area of the inner square will be,

$\large \boxed{\mathsf{Area = Side^{2}}}$

Area will be,

= $Side^{2}$

= $90^{2}$

= $8100 \: m^{2}$

For the whole Park including the path at sides the length of the sides will be = 90 + 5 = 95 m each

So the area of the outer square will be,

$\large \boxed{\mathsf{Area = Side^{2}}}$

Area will be,

= $Side^{2}$

= $95^{2}$

= $9025 \: m^{2}$

Area of path will be,

= Area of outer square - Area of inner square

= 9025 - 8100

$\large \boxed{Area = 925 m^{2}}$
