Answer 1

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

Area of the veranda = 166.5 m^2

● Explanation -

# Given -

w = 4.5 m

l = 18.5 m

b = 14 m

L = l+w = 18.5+4.5 = 23 m

B = b+w = 14+4.5 = 18.5 m

# Solution -

Area of the veranda is given by -

Area of the veranda = area of outer rectangle - area of inner rectangle

Area of the veranda = L×B - l×b

Area of the veranda = 23×18.5 - 18.5×14

Area of the veranda = 166.5 m^2

Hence, area of the veranda is 166.5 m^2.

Thanks dear. hope this helps you...
