Question

A rectangular field is 48 m long and 20 m wide. How many right triangular flower beds, whose sides containing the right angle measure 12 m and 5 m can be ** in this field?**

Answer 1

Given length of the rectangular field = 48 m

Breadth of the rectangular field = 20 m

Area of the rectangular field = Length x Breadth

= 48 m x 20 m

= 960 m2

Area of one right triangular flower bed = (12 x 5) = 30 m2

Therefore, required number of right triangular flower beds = area of the rectangular field/ area of one right triangular flower bed.

= 960/30

Number of right triangular flower bed = 32
