A square ground has a 2 metre wide path all
around it. The total area of the ground and the
path is 1225 square metres. What is the area
of the ground alone?
Answer:
’Each side of the ground = x
Each side of ground+path = x + 4
(x + 4)2 = 1225 = 352;
x + 4 = 35
x= 35 – 4 = 31

Question 4.
In writing the equation to construct a
rectangle of specified perimeter and area, the
perimeter was wrongly written as 24 instead
of 42. The length of a side was then computed
as 10 meters. What is the area in the problem?
What are the lengths of the sides of the
rectangle in the correct problem?
Answer:
If length is 10 and perimter is 24
2 (l + b) = 24
2(10 + b) = 24
10 + 5 = 12
b=2
Width= 2
Area= lb =10 x 2 = 20 [Link]
Area in the correct problem =20
lb = 20
2(l + b) = 42
l + b = 21
20
l + l = 21
