The correct Answer is:
To find the area of the inner surface of the boundary wall around a rectangular plot of land measuring 45 m by 30 m, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the dimensions of the boundary wall The boundary wall is built at a distance of 1 meter from the plot. Therefore, we need to add 1 meter to each side of the plot's dimensions. - Length of the plot = 45 m - Breadth of the plot = 30 m **Calculating the dimensions of the boundary wall:** - Length of the boundary wall = Length of the plot + 1 m (on one side) + 1 m (on the other side) = 45 m + 1 m + 1 m = 47 m - Breadth of the boundary wall = Breadth of the plot + 1 m (on one side) + 1 m (on the other side) = 30 m + 1 m + 1 m = 32 m ### Step 2: Determine the height of the boundary wall The height of the boundary wall is given as 2.4 m. ### Step 3: Calculate the area of the inner surface of the boundary wall The inner surface area of the boundary wall consists of four walls: two walls of length and two walls of breadth. **Using the formula for the area of the walls:** - Area of two longer walls = 2 × (Length of the boundary wall × Height of the wall) = 2 × (47 m × 2.4 m) = 2 × 112.8 m² = 225.6 m² - Area of two shorter walls = 2 × (Breadth of the boundary wall × Height of the wall) = 2 × (32 m × 2.4 m) = 2 × 76.8 m² = 153.6 m² **Total inner surface area of the boundary wall:** Total area = Area of longer walls + Area of shorter walls = 225.6 m² + 153.6 m² = 379.2 m² ### Final Answer The area of the inner surface of the boundary wall is **379.2 m²**. ---
