Question Detail

One side of rectangular field is 15 meter and one of its diagonals is 17 meter. Then find the area of the field.

\begin{aligned} 120m^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 130m^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 140m^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 150m^2 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{We know }h^2 = b^2+h^2 \\
=>\text{Other side }= \sqrt{(17)^2-(15)^2} \\
= \sqrt{289-225} = \sqrt{64} \\
= 8 meter \\
Area = Length \times Breadth \\
= 15\times8 m^2 = 120 m^2

\end{aligned}

1. If the circumference of a circle increases from 4pi to 8 pi, what change occurs in the area ?

Area is quadrupled
Area is tripled
Area is doubles
Area become half

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
2\pi R1 = 4 \pi \\
=> R1 = 2 \\
2\pi R2 = 8 \pi \\
=> R2 = 4 \\
\text{Original Area =} 4\pi * 2^2 \\
= 16 \pi \\
\text{New Area =} 4\pi * 4^2 \\
= 64 \pi
\end{aligned}

So the area quadruples.

2. The Diagonals of two squares are in the ratio of 2:5. find the ratio of their areas.

4:25
4:15
3:25
3:15

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Let the diagonals of the squares be 2x and 5x.
Then ratio of their areas will be
\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of square} = \frac{1}{2}*{Diagonal}^2 \\
\frac{1}{2}*{2x}^2:\frac{1}{2}*{5x}^2 \\
4x^2:25x^2 = 4:25
\end{aligned}

3. The perimeters of 5 squares are 24 cm, 32 cm, 40 cm, 76 cm and 80 cm respectively. The perimeter of another square equal in area to the sum of the area of these square is:

124 cm
120 cm
64 cm
56 cm

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Clearly first we need to find the areas of the given squares, for that we need its side.

Side of sqaure = Perimeter/4

So sides are,

\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{24}{4}\right),\left(\frac{32}{4}\right),\left(\frac{40}{4}\right),\left(\frac{76}{4}\right),\left(\frac{80}{4}\right) \\
= 6,8,10,19,20 \\
\text{Area of new square will be }\\
= [6^2+8^2+10^2+19^2+20^2] \\
= 36+64+100+361+400 \\
= 961 cm^2 \\
\text{Side of new Sqaure =}\sqrt{961} \\
= 31 cm \\
\text{Required perimeter =}(4\times31) \\
= 124 cm

\end{aligned}

4. The area of a rectangle is 460 square metres. If the length is 15% more than the breadth, what is the breadth of the rectangular field ?

18 meter
20 meter
22 meter
25 meter

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let breadth =x metres.
Then length =(115x/100)metres.
\begin{aligned}
=x*\frac{115x}{100}= 460\\
x^2=(460 x 100/115) \\
x^2=400 \\
x= 20 \\
\end{aligned}

5. Find the circumference of a circle, whose area is 24.64 meter sqaure

17.90m
17.80m
17.60m
17.40m

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of Square =} \pi*r^2\\
=> \pi*r^2 = 24.64 \\
=> r^2 = \frac{24.64}{22}*7 \\
=> r^2 = 7.84 \\
=> r = \sqrt{7.84} \\
=> r = 2.8 \\
\text{Circumference =}2\pi*r\\
= 2*\frac{22}{7}*2.8 \\
= 17.60m

\end{aligned}
