Solution
Length (l) of green house = 30 cm
Breadth (b) of green house = 25 cm
Height (h) of green house = 25 cm
Total surface area of green house
= 2[lb + lh + bh]
= [2(30 × 25 + 30 × 25 + 25 × 25)] cm2
= [2(750 + 750 + 625)] cm2
= (2 × 2125) cm2
= 4250 cm2
Therefore, the area of glass is 4250 cm2.
