8601.	Find the altitude of a triangle whose area is 42 cm2 and base is 12 cm.
Answer» Given base = 12 cm and area = 42 cm² We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height) Therefore altitude of a triangle = (2 x Area)/Base Altitude = (2 x 42)/12 = 7 cm

8601.

Find the altitude of a triangle whose area is 42 cm2 and base is 12 cm.

Answer»

Given base = 12 cm and area = 42 cm²

We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height)

Therefore altitude of a triangle = (2 x Area)/Base

Altitude = (2 x 42)/12

= 7 cm

Answer» Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × length + 2 × breadth = 2 × 100 + 2 × 80 = 200 + 160 = 360 The perimeter of the rectangular park is 360 m.

8602.

The length of a rectangular park is 100 m, while its width is 80 m. What is its perimeter?

Answer»

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × length + 2 × breadth

= 2 × 100 + 2 × 80

= 200 + 160

= 360

The perimeter of the rectangular park is 360 m.

Answer» (i) Given base = 18 cm and height = 3.5 cm We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height) Therefore area of the triangle = ½ x 18 x 3.5 = 31.5 cm² (ii) Given base = 8 dm = (8 x 10) cm = 80 cm [Since 1 dm = 10 cm] And height = 3.5 cm We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height) Therefore area of the triangle = ½ x 80 x 15 = 600 cm²

8604.

Find the area in square centimetres of a triangle whose base and altitude are as under:(i) Base =18 cm, altitude = 3.5 cm(ii) Base = 8 dm, altitude =15 cm

Answer»

(i) Given base = 18 cm and height = 3.5 cm

We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height)

Therefore area of the triangle = ½ x 18 x 3.5

= 31.5 cm²

(ii) Given base = 8 dm = (8 x 10) cm = 80 cm [Since 1 dm = 10 cm]

And height = 3.5 cm

We know that the area of a triangle = ½ (Base x Height)

Therefore area of the triangle = ½ x 80 x 15

8606.	Three married couple are to be seated in a row having six seats in a cinema hall. If spouses are to be seated next to each other, in how many ways can they be seated? Find also the number of ways of their seating if all ladies sit together.
Answer» (i) Three couples can be seated in a row in ³P₃ = 3! Ways. Now, in each couple, the spouses can be arranged in ²P₂ = 2! , ways Thus for three couples, number of arrangements = 2! × 2! × 2! ∴ Total number of ways in which spouses are seated next to each other = 3! × 2! × 2! × 2! = 6 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 48 ways. (ii) Now, if the three ladies are to be seated together, there are regard 3 ladies as one block. Therefore, there are now 4 people can be arranged in ⁴P₄ = 4! = 24 ways. But 3 ladies can interchange their position in 3! = 6 ways ∴ Total number of arrangements in which 3 ladies sit together = 24 × 6 = 144.

Answer»

(i) Three couples can be seated in a row in ³P₃ = 3! Ways.

Now, in each couple, the spouses can be arranged in ²P₂ = 2! , ways

Thus for three couples, number of arrangements = 2! × 2! × 2!

∴ Total number of ways in which spouses are seated next to each other = 3! × 2! × 2! × 2! = 6 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 48 ways.

(ii) Now, if the three ladies are to be seated together, there are regard 3 ladies as one block.

Therefore, there are now 4 people can be arranged in ⁴P₄ = 4! = 24 ways.

But 3 ladies can interchange their position in 3! = 6 ways

∴ Total number of arrangements in which 3 ladies sit together = 24 × 6 = 144.

8618.	Find the smallest number which when multiplied with 3600 will make the product a perfect cube. Further, find the cube root of the product.
Answer» Here , 3600 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 = 2³ × 3² × 5² × 2 Since only one triples is formed and three factors remained ungrouped in triples. Hence ,the given number 3600 is not a perfect cube. So make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it by, (2 × 2 × 3 × 5) = 60 3600 × 60 = 216000 Cube root of 216000 is ∛216000 = ∛(60×60×60) = ∛(60³) = 60 ∴ the smallest number which when multiplied with 3600 will make the product a perfect cube is 60 and the cube root of the product is 60.

Find the smallest number which when multiplied with 3600 will make the product a perfect cube. Further, find the cube root of the product.

Answer»

Here , 3600 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

= 2³ × 3² × 5² × 2

Since only one triples is formed and three factors remained ungrouped in triples.

Hence ,the given number 3600 is not a perfect cube.

So make it a perfect cube we have to multiply it by,

(2 × 2 × 3 × 5) = 60

3600 × 60 = 216000

Cube root of 216000 is

∛216000 = ∛(60×60×60)

= ∛(60³)

= 60

∴ the smallest number which when multiplied with 3600 will make the product a perfect cube is 60 and the cube root of the product is 60.

Everyone knows that crickets have four legs. But he says some have two to compare the silly cricket to the two-legged human-beings who sometimes are as lazy and silly as the cricket in this poem. The poet wants to suggest that this story is not entirely a fable; rather, it is related to the real world. Surely, some people are as careless and lazy as the cricket is. Likewise, some humans like the cricket also don’t plan out for the future or for the bad times. They just enjoy the present moment.

Answer» The theme of the poem, The Ant and the Cricket is hard work versus laziness. Through the story of the silly cricket, which is also lazy and the wise and industrious ant, the poet teaches us the virtue of hard work. The cricket was foolish enough not to see the imminent needs. He made no plans or supplies for the future. He lived in the present moment. The ant, on the other hand, was wise and hardworking. She worked hard so that she could relish the future. The poet wants us to leam a significant lesson in life. One must always save for the future. One should not be thoughtless and just enjoy the present moment. You will reap only what you sow. Therefore, we must be foresighted enough to see our future and consequently make plans. One should be ready to face anything in life – be it good or bad. The moral of the cricket’s story is also similar to the theme. One should not be lazy and careless about one’s life and future. Hard work is the key to success. One must leam to save for the future. ‘Self-belief and handwork will always earn you success. ’

Answer» We can ask the Government, if any policy has been changed and sanctioned any compensations. Otherwise we can ask him whether insurance took the harvesting land. If he did the insurance policy, the Insurance company can give the compensations and we can collect from them, or we can give notice and give the auction on that land and recover money from that auction by the land document. The land was hypothecated by the bank and the loan was given. So we can have a chance to recover that loan.
