Answer:
Consider the side of the lawn be x
Given width of the path 2.5m
Side of the lawn including path x+2(2.5)=x+5
Area of a square =(side)
2
So, area of lawn = (Area of the lawn including the path) - (Area of the path)
Therefore, According to the given question,:
x
2
=(x + 5)

−165
x

=(x

+ 10x +25)−165m

=x

+10x+25−165
x

=x

+10x−140
x

−140=x

−10x
x

−x

−140=−10x
−140=−10x
i.e 140=10x
∴x=140/10=14
Since the side of the lawn = 14m
The area of the lawn=(14)
