Given, perimeter of square plot = 360 m

∵ Perimeter of the square = 4 x its side

∴ 4 x side of square = 360 m

⇒ side of the square = (360/4) m = 90 m

(i) The area of the square field = (side)²

= (90 m)²

= 90 m x 90 m

= 8100 m²

(ii) Cost of fencing at Rs 40 per metre

= 8100 m2 x Rs 40 per metre

= Rs 324000

(iii) Cost of levelling at Rs 60 per m²

= 8100 m² x Rs 60 per m²

= Rs 486000
