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

2

+ 10x +25)−165m

x

=x

+10x+25−165

x

=x

+10x−140

x

−140=x

−10x

x

2

−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)

or196 m
