Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the patio is 32m
Lets say the side length including the garden and patio is x m
so its perimeter in terms of x is 4x
we get the equation 4x=32
hence x=32/4
x=8 m
Means the sides are of 8 m
Now
Area is given by
[tex]A=x^2[/tex]
so
[tex]A =8^2[/tex]
Area =64 sq meter
