Answer 1

To find the remaining grassy area of the park, we need to calculate the area of the rectangular park and subtract the area of the triangular flower bed.

1. Calculate the area of the rectangular park: \[ \text{Area of the park} = \text{length} \times \text{width} = 50 , \text{m} \times 40 , \text{m} = 2000 , \text{m}^2 \]

2. Calculate the area of the triangular flower bed: \[ \text{Area of the triangle} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 20 , \text{m} \times 15 , \text{m} = 150 , \text{m}^2 \]

3. Calculate the remaining grassy area of the park: \[ \text{Remaining area} = \text{Area of the park} - \text{Area of the triangle} = 2000 , \text{m}^2 - 150 , \text{m}^2 = 1850 , \text{m}^2 \]

Thus, the remaining grassy area of the park is:

\[ \boxed{1850 , \text{m}^2} \]
