Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the enlarged flower bed =is 4.84 sq.m. and increase in the area is 1.6 sq.m.
Step-by-step explanation:
The side of a square flower bed is 1m 80cm long
1 m = 100 cm
80 cm = \frac{80}{100}
100
80
80 cm = 0.8 m
So, the side of a square flower bed is 1.8 m
Area of square bed = Side^2 = 1.8^2 = 3.24 m^2Side
2
=1.8
2
=3.24m

Now we are given that it is enlarged by digging a strip 20cm wide all around it
1 m = 100 cm
20 cm = \frac{20}{100}
100
20
20 cm = 0.2 m
So, new side = 1.8+0.2+0.2 =2.2 m
Area of enlarged flower bed = Side^2 = 2.2^2 = 4.84 m^2Side
2
=2.2
2
=4.84m
2
Increase in the area of the flower bed = 4.84-3.24 = 1.6 sq.m.
Hence the area of the enlarged flower bed =is 4.84 sq.m. and increase in the area is 1.6 sq.m.
