Answer 2

Answer:

length of outer rectangle=8+2+2+12m

breadth of outer rectangle=5+2+2=9m

area of outer rectangle=l×b=12×9=108m^2

length of inner rectangle =8m

breadth of inner rectangle=5m

area of inner rectangle=l×b=8×5=40m^2

there fore area of verandha=(area of outer figure )-(area of inner figure)

=108-40=68m^2....
