Step-by-step explanation:
Let No. of trees in a row = r
and No. of trees in a column = c
Given,
r = c+10.
Total No. of trees = 200.
We have,
r × c = 200 -------(1)
=> (c+10) × c = 200
=> c² +10c -200 = 0
Solve for roots
=> c² + 20c - 10c - 200 = 0
=> c(c+20) -10(c+20) = 0
=> (c-10)(c+20) = 0
=> c = 10 or -20
c can't be -ve
•°• c = 10
substitute in (1),
r × 10 = 200
=> r = 20
•°• No. of trees in each row = 20.
& No. of trees in each column = 10

Verification:
20 × 10= 200
and 20- 10 = 10
