Answer»

Width of rectangle = 28 m

Diagonal of rectangle = 53 m

Length of rectangle = √ (532 - 282) = 45 m [by USING PYTHAGORAS theorem]

Perimeter of rectangle = 2[length + width] = 2[45 + 28] = 146 m

Fencing cost = 146 ×15 = Rs. 2190

Area of rectangle = length × width = 45 × 28 = 1260 m2

Area of wheat PLANTATION = [3/(3 + 5)] × 1260 = 472.5 m2

Area of rice plantation = 1260 - 472.5 = 787.5 m2

Cost for wheat plantation = 472.5 × 25 = Rs. 11,812.5

Cost for rice plantation = 787.5 × 30 = Rs. 23,625

∴ Total cost = 2190 + 11812.5 + 23625 = Rs. 37,627.5

Answer»

AREA of rectangle = LENGTH × BREADTH

Let Length of rectangle be a and breadth be b

ORIGINAL area = a × b = AB

New area = (a – 25% of a) × (b + 30% of b)

⇒ New area = 0.75a × 1.3b

⇒ New area = 0.975ab

? 0.975ab < ab, area has decreased

Percent decrease in area = (Original area - New area) × 100/ Original area

⇒ Percent decrease = (ab - 0.975ab) × 100/ab

⇒ Percent decrease = 0.025 × 100 = 2.5%.

Answer»

As we know, perimeter of a circle of radius r = 2πr

And perimeter of a rectangle of length L and breadth B = 2 (L + B)

ACCORDING to the given information:

 A circle and a rectangle have the same perimeter

∴ 2π r = 2 (L + B)

Whereas, Length of the rectangle = 12 cm

And breadth of the rectangle = 10 cm

∴ 2 × (22/7) × r = 2 × (12 + 10) = 44

⇒ r = 7

Now, Area of the circle of radius r = π r2

∴ (22/7) × 7 × 7 = 154

Hence, area of the circle is 154 cm2

Solution:

Given: AREA of the rectangular hall = 744 m² and 

LENTH of the rectangular hall is 7M more than its breadth.

Let us TAKE 'l' as the length and 'b' as the breadth of the hall.

So, we have l = 7 + b 

Area of the rectangular hall = 744 m²

Length × Breadth = 744 

l × b = 744

Substituting 'l' here we get 

(7+b)b = 744

b² + 7b - 744 = 0

(b + 31)(b -24) = 0

So, b = 24m

Substituting the value of 'b' in l = 7 + b 

We have l = 7 + 24

So, l = 31m

The CORRECT option is 4). 31m

Two concentric circle forming a path which needs to be color at the rate of Rs 7/100 cm2.What is the total cost of painting the path if the diameter of the two circles are 16 cm and 24 cm?1). Rs. 15.02). Rs. 17.63). Rs. 19.24). Rs. 20.8

Answer»

 As the shown in the figure, PAINTING needs to be done in the space between two circles

Radius of the inner circle (r1) = 16/2 = 8 cm

Radius of the OUTER circle (r2) = 24/2 = 12 cm

Area of the PAINTED part = π(r2)2 - π(r1)2 = π[(r2)2 - (r1)2]

⇒ Area = $(\frac{{22}}{7}\; \times \;\left( {{{12}^2} - {8^2}} \right))$

⇒ Area = 22/7 (144 – 64)

⇒ Area = 22/7 × 80

⇒ Area = 251.4286 cm2

⇒ For 100 cm2 Price is Rs. 7

∴ For 251.4286 cm2, price = (251.4286 × 7)/100 = Rs. 17.6

Find the area of a parallelogram with a diagonal of length 8 cm and having adjacent sides of 4 cm and 6 cm.1). 11.6 cm22). 16.4 cm23). 20.1 cm24). 23.2 cm2

Answer»

As we know, the DIAGONAL of a PARALLELOGRAM divides it into TWO equal triangles.

Hence,

Area of parallelogram = 2 × area of triangle FORMED by the two adjacent sides and the diagonal

⇒ Area of parallelogram = 2 × √s(s – a)(s – b)(s – c)

Where s = (a + b + c)/2

Putting a = 8 CM, b = 4 cm, c = 6 cm, we get,

s = (8 + 4 + 6)/2 = 18/2 = 9

∴ Area of parallelogram = 2 × √9(9 – 8)(9 – 4)(9 – 6) = 2 × √135 = 2 × 11.6 = 23.2 cm2

The area of trapezium is 1120m2. If the parallel sides are in ratio of 6 : 8 and distance between parallel side is 32m, then the length of smaller parallel side is1). 40m2). 36m3). 32m4). 30m

Answer»

Let the length of smaller parallel side be 6X.

∴ Length of bigger parallel side = 8x.

Now, SINCE we know AREA of trapezium = (Length of parallel sides) × Height/2

⇒ Area = (6x + 8x) × 32 / 2

⇒ 1120 = 14x × 16

⇒ 14x = 70

⇒ x = 5

Length of smaller side = 6x = 6 × 5 = 30m.

In ΔPQR, ∠P + ∠Q = ∠R, PR = 6 and QR = 8, then PQ = ?1). 102). 153). 184). 20

Answer»

SUM of the three ANGLE of triangle is 180°

∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180°

∠R + ∠R = 180°

2∠R = 180°

∠R = 90°

So, PQ is hypotenuse

As PER Pythagoras THEOREM,

PQ2 = PR2 + QR2

= 36 + 64

PQ2 = 100

PQ = 10

A pyramid is with a triangular base ABC where AB = 25 cm, BC = 24 cm and CA = 7 cm. The point D is vertically above the point C where CD = 34 cm. If the area of ΔABD is 40 sq.cm, then what is the total surface area of the pyramid?1). 244 sq.cm2). 145 sq.cm3). 651 sq.cm4). 354 sq.cm

Answer»

Solution :

GIVEN 

The SIDES of triangle ABC are $25$ cm, $24$cm and $7$ cm . Triangle $ABC$ is a right angle triangle as $25$ cm, $24$cm and $7$ cm are Pythagoras triplets.

A pyramid is made up of four triangles namely BASE triangle $ABC$, triangle $BCD$, triangle $ACD$ and triangle $ABD$. 

Triangles $BCD$ and $ACD$ are ALSO right angle triangles.

Area of triangle $ABC = (1/2 )× 24 × 7 = 84$ sq.cm

Area of triangle $BCD = (1/2 )× 24 × 34 = 408$sq.cm

Area of triangle $ACD = (1/2 )× 7 × 34 = 119$ sq.cm

Given : Area of triangle $ABD = 40$ sq.cm

Total surface area of the pyramid $= ( 84 + 408 + 119 + 40) $sq.cm

= 651 sq.cm

The correct option is 3). 651 sq.cm
