Step by step
Let the park be a rectangle ABCD under a bigger rectangle EFGH. AB =11, AC =7m
The width between the two rectangle is 2m ( it is the path ).
So, dimensions of rectangle EFGH are
EF=11m and FG=15m
=Area of path =area of rectangle EFGH- area of RECTANGLE ABCD.
= (EF×FG) - ( AB×AC)
=(11×15) metre square-( 7×11) metre square.
=88 metre square
Therefore the area of path is 88 metre square.
