Question

Find the area of the garden.

Answer 1

28yd²

Explanation:

area of square = side *side

=6*6= 36²

area of rectangle (patio)= length* breadth

=4*2=8²

area of garden= area of square - area of rectangle

=36-8

=28 yd²

Answer 2

28 sq. yd

Explanation:

For finding the area of the garden :

First Case:

Given,

Side of the big square = 6 yd

Therefore,

Area of the big square = side × side

= 6yd × 6yd

`= 36 {yd}^(2)`

Second Case:

Length of the patio = 4 yd

Breadth of the patio = 2 yd

Therefore,

Area of the patio = Length × Breadth

= 4yd × 2yd

`= 8 {yd}^(2)`

Last Case:

According to first and second cases,

Area of the garden

= Area of the big square - Area of the patio

`= 36 {yd}^(2) - 8 {yd}^(2)`

`= 28 {yd}^(2)`

Hence,

Required area of the garden is 28 sq. yd (Ans)
