Solution
Length (l) of park = 700 m
Breadth (b) of park = 300 m
Area of park = 700 × 300 = 210000 m2
Length of road PQRS = 700 m
Length of road ABCD = 300 m
Width of each road = 10 m
Area of the roads = ar (PQRS) + ar (ABCD) − ar (KLMN)
= (700 × 10) + (300 × 10) − (10 × 10)
= 7000 + 3000 − 100
= 10000 − 100 = 9900 m2 = 0.99 hectare
Area of park excluding roads = 210000 − 9900 = 200100 m2 = 20.01 hectare
