Answer:1/2 minute or 30 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the field = 48 m2
Length of one side = 6 m
Therefore, length of other side = 8 m (48/6=8)
The length of the diagonal = 10 m (Pythagoras theorem, the two sides and diagonal make a triangle, hypotenuse=diagonal)
Therefore, time taken by the lady = 10/20 minute = 1/2 minute
