The correct Answer is:
To find the cost of fencing a triangular ground with sides measuring 16m, 12m, and 18m, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the Perimeter of the Triangle The perimeter (P) of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of all its sides. \[ P = \text{Side 1} + \text{Side 2} + \text{Side 3} \] \[ P = 16m + 12m + 18m \] \[ P = 46m \] ### Step 2: Determine the Cost of Fencing per Meter The cost of fencing is given as Rs. 25 per meter. ### Step 3: Calculate the Total Cost of Fencing To find the total cost (C) of fencing, we multiply the perimeter by the cost per meter. \[ C = P \times \text{Cost per meter} \] \[ C = 46m \times 25 \text{ Rs/m} \] \[ C = 1150 \text{ Rs} \] ### Final Answer The total cost of fencing the triangular ground is Rs. 1150. ---
