1 hectare is the area of 10,000 square meters.


Divide the area of 9 hectares = 9*10,000 = 90,000 square meters 
by the given side length to get the other (adjacent) side length

     = 250 meters.


Now add the lengths of all four sides of the rectangular field to find its perimeter

    Perimeter = 360 + 250 + 360 + 250 = ?


I leave it to you to find the final value, otherwise your studying Math will be bore and useless to you . . .

Solved.
