Solution:
Assumptions:
1.      Heat Transfer through the body is given to be steady and two-dimensional.
2.      There is no heat generation in the body.
Properties:
Thermal conductivity of the body is given to be k = 45 W/m · °C
Analysis:
            The mesh size is given to be x = y = 2.0 cm means square grid. The general finite difference form of an interior node of square grid for steady two-dimensional heat conduction for the case of no heat generation is expressed as:
            Tm+1, n + Tm-1, n + Tm, n+1 + Tm, n-1 – 4 Tm, n = 0
The equation for node 1:
            180 + T2 + 180 + T4 – 4 T1 = 0
ð  4 T1 – T2 – T4 = 360
The equation for node 2:
            T1 + T3 + 200 + T5 – 4 T2 = 0
ð   T1 – 4 T2 + T3 + T5 =  200
The equation for node 3:
            T2 + 180 + 180 + T6 – 4 T3 = 0
ð   T2 – 4 T3 + T6 = 360   
The equation for node 4:
            200 + T5 + T1 + T7 – 4 T4 = 0
ð   T1 – 4 T4 + T5 + T7 =  200
The equation for node 5:
            T4 + T6 + T2 + T8 – 4 T5 = 0
ð  T2 + T4 – 4 T5 + T6 + T8 = 0
The equation for node 6:
            T5 + 200 + T3 + T9 – 4 T6 = 0
ð   T3 + T5 – 4 T6 + T9 =  200
The equation for node 7:
            180 + T8 + T4 + 180 – 4 T7 = 0
ð   T4 – 4 T7 + T8 =  360
The equation for node 8:
            T7 + T9 + T5 + 200 – 4 T8 = 0
ð   T5 + T7 – 4 T8 + T9 =  200
The equation for node 9:
            T8 + 180 + T6 + 180 – 4 T9 = 0
ð   T6 + T8 – 4 T9 =  360

Thus, we get nine equations and nine unknown nodal temperatures.
The above equations can be written in the matrix form like below:
