1.	A garden is in the form of a rhombus whose side is 30 metres and the corresponding altitudes is 16 m. Find the cost of levelling the garden at the rate of Rs. 2 per m2.
Answer» Side of rhombus = 30 m Altitude of rhombus = 16 m Rhombus is a type of parallelogram Area of parallelogram = base × altitude Area of parallelogram = 30 × 16 = 480 m² Cost of levelling the garden = area × rate Cost of levelling the garden = 480 × 2 = 960 Cost of levelling the garden is Rs 960

A garden is in the form of a rhombus whose side is 30 metres and the corresponding altitudes is 16 m. Find the cost of levelling the garden at the rate of Rs. 2 per m2.

Answer»

Side of rhombus = 30 m

Altitude of rhombus = 16 m

Rhombus is a type of parallelogram

Area of parallelogram = base × altitude

Area of parallelogram = 30 × 16 = 480 m²

Cost of levelling the garden = area × rate

Cost of levelling the garden = 480 × 2 = 960

Cost of levelling the garden is Rs 960
