Question

Two cross-roads each of 5 m width run at right angles through the centre of a rectangular park 70 m
by 50 m, such that each is parallel to one of the sides of the park. Find the area of the remaining
portion of the park.​

Answer 1

Answer:

2925m^(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle's area= length×breadth

70m×50m= 3500m^(2)

70m×5m= 350m^(2)

50m×5m= 250m^(2)

5m×5m= 25m^(2)

350m^(2)+250m^(2)-25m^(2)

575m^(2)

Remaining area= 3500m^(2)-575m^(2)= 2925m^(2)

2925m^(2) is the answer.
