with the path width included sides will become 110m(100+5+5).
area of this new square=110x110=12100m².
area of the original square=100x100=10000 m².
therefore, area of the path=12100-10000=2100m²
area of this new square=110x110=12100m².
area of the original square=100x100=10000 m².
therefore, area of the path=12100-10000=2100m²

u have to subtract the smaller area from the bigger area to find the remaining area

Area of path = Area of bigger square - Area of smaller square
Side of the smaller square = Side of the bigger square - 2(width of the path)
= 100 - 2(5)
= 90 m
Area of the path = (100)² - (90)² = 10000 - 8100 = 1900 sq m
Side of the smaller square = Side of the bigger square - 2(width of the path)
= 100 - 2(5)
= 90 m
Area of the path = (100)² - (90)² = 10000 - 8100 = 1900 sq m
