- 4A garden is shaped like a rectangle measuring 14 m by 9 m, with a right-angled triangular flower bed removed from one corner. The triangle has a base of 4 m (along the 14 m side) and a height of 3 m (along the 9 m side).(a)Find the area of the garden (the rectangle with the triangular corner removed).[4 marks](b)Find the perimeter of the garden. Note that removing the triangular corner replaces the two cut edges (4 m and 3 m) with the diagonal (hypotenuse) edge of the triangle.[4 marks](c)Convert the area of the garden found in part (a) into , and hence find how many 30 cm by 30 cm paving slabs (each with area 900 ) would be needed to fully cover the garden, assuming any partial slab must be rounded up to a whole slab.[5 marks]
