Answer:
1236 sq. m
explanation:
Side of square field = 100m
Area of the square field = side * side
= 100 * 100
= 10,000 sq. m
A path of 3m wide is built outside and along the boundary.
Side of path = 100(from the side of field) + 3(from the upper side) + 3(from below)
= 100 + 6
= 106 metres.
Area of the along with whole square path with side 106m = side * side
= 106 * 106
= 11,236sq.m
Now, Area of whole square = Areas of square field + area of path
therefore, Area of the path only = 11,236 - 10,000
= 1,236sq.m
