Answer» [NOTE: A rhombus has 2 congruent opposite acute angles and two congruent opposite OBTUSE angles. One of the properties of a rhombus is that any two internal consecutive angles are supplementary.] Let the acute angle be A ⇒ The obtuse angle = 3A ⇒ 4A = 180 ⇒ A = 45 Now, use the formula for area of a triangle and then MULTIPLY the area by 2 ∴ Area of rhombus = $(2 \times 1/2 \times {9^2} \times \sin 45 = 81 \times \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }} = 57.28)$ feet2 (approx) |

|
Answer» Given: Area of square A = 24 sq.cm To find : Area of square B = ? Let us take the side of square A as 'a' and square B as 'b'. So, a²= 24 sq.cm a = √24 a = 2√6 cm. It is given that, Diagonal of square B = two-third of the diagonal of square A We KNOW that diagonal of a square = √2 of side of a square So, √2 (b) = (⅔)√2 (a) b = (⅔) a SUBSTITUTING the value of a in here we have b = ⅔ ( 2√6 ) b = ( 2 × 2√2 √3 ) / (√3 √3) b = (4 √2)/√3 cm Area of square B = b² cm² Area of square B =[(4 √2)/√3]² cm² Area of square B = (16×2) / 3 cm² Area of square B = 32/3 cm² So,the correct option is 3). 32/3 cm² |

Answer» As, ⇒ Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) ⇒ 46 = 2(length + 8) ⇒ Length = 23 – 8 = 15 cm Also, EVERY angle of RECTANGLE is 90° ∴ Diagonal = √(length2 + breadth2) = √{(15)2 + (8)2 = √289 = 17 cm |

The radius and height of a right circular cone are in the ratio 4 : 7. If its volume is 1008π cm3, then find its slant height?1). 24.18 cm2). 25.26 cm3). 23 cm4). 26.14 cm |
|
Answer» Volume of RIGHT circular cone $(= \frac{{\pi {r^2}h}}{3})$ GIVEN, ratio of radius and height is 4:7 Let them be 4A and 7a respectively. Where a is any constant Given, volume = 1008π cc $(\therefore \pi\TIMES {(4a)^2} \times \frac{{7a}}{3} = 1008\pi)$ ⇒ a3 = 27 ⇒ a = 3 cm SLANT height = √( radius2 + height2 ) ⇒ Slant height = √( (4a)2 + (7a)2) ⇒ slant height = √( 144 + 441) = √(585) = 24.18 cm |

The radius of a wire is decreased to one-third. If volume remains the same, length will increase by :1). 1.5 times2). 3 times3). 6 times4). 9 times |
|
Answer» Let the initial radius and length of the wire be R and l respectively. Now, radius changes to r/3, let the new length be $(\;{l_1})$. ? Volume does not change, $(\PI {r^2}l = \pi {\left( {\frac{r}{3}} \RIGHT)^2}{l_1})$ ⇒ $({r^2}l = \frac{{{r^2}}}{9} \times {l_1})$ ⇒ l1 = 9l ∴ Length is increased by 9 times. |

A wire when bent in the form of a square encloses an area of 484 sq.cm. What will be the enclosed area when the same wire is bent into the form of a circle? (Take \(\pi= \frac{{22}}{7}\)) 1). 462 sq.cm2). 539 sq.cm3). 616 sq.cm4). 693 sq.cm |
|
Answer» Area of a square = side × side Perimeter of a square = 4 × side Given, wire when bent in the form of a square encloses an area of 484 sq.CM Side = √484 = 22 cm Perimeter = 88 cm Same wire is USED to make a circle. Perimeter of a circle of RADIUS r = 2πr ⇒ 2πr = 88 ⇒ 44r/7 = 88 ⇒ r = 14 cm Area of a circle of radius r = πr2 Area enclosed by the circle $(= \frac{{22}}{7} \times {14^2})$ ⇒ Area enclosed by the circle = 616 sq. cm. |
