Question Detail

The area of incircle of an equilateral triangle of side 42 cm is :

\begin{aligned} 462 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 452 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 442 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 432 cm^2 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Radius of incircle} = \frac{a}{2\sqrt3} \\
= \frac{42}{2\sqrt3} \\
= 7\sqrt{3} \\
\text{Area of incircle =} \\
\frac{22}{7}*49*3 = 462 cm^2
\end{aligned}

1. The area of a square is 69696 cm square. What will be its diagonal ?

373.196 cm
373.110 cm
373.290 cm
373.296 cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

If area is given then we can easily find side of a square as,
\begin{aligned}Side = \sqrt{69696} \\
= 264 cm \\
\text{we know diagonal =}\sqrt{2}\times side \\
= \sqrt{2}\times 264 \\
= 1.414 \times 264 \\
= 373.296 cm \end{aligned}

2. The difference of the areas of two squares drawn on two line segments in 32 sq. cm. Find the length of the greater line segment if one is longer than the other by 2 cm.

9 cm
8 cm
7 cm
6 cm

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the lengths of the line segments be x and x+2 cm
then,
\begin{aligned}
{(x+2)}^2 - x^2 = 32 \\
x^2 + 4x + 4 - x^2 = 32 \\
4x = 28 \\
x = 7 cm
\end{aligned}

3. The length of a rectangle is three times of its width. If the length of the diagonal is \begin{aligned}8\sqrt{10}\end{aligned}, then find the perimeter of the rectangle.

60 cm
62 cm
64 cm
66 cm

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let Breadth = x cm,
then, Length = 3x cm
\begin{aligned}
x^2+{(3x)}^2 = {(8\sqrt{10})}^2 \\
=> 10x^2 = 640 \\
=> x = 8 \\
\end{aligned}
So, length = 24 cm and breadth = 8 cm
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
= 2(24+8) = 64 cm

4. 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.

5. The area of rhombus is 150 cm square. The length of one of the its diagonals is 10 cm. The length of the other diagonal is:

15 cm
20 cm
25 cm
30 cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

We know the product of diagonals is 1/2*(product of diagonals)

Let one diagonal be d1 and d2
So as per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{2}*d1*d2 = 150 \\
\frac{1}{2}*10*d2 = 150 \\
d2 = \frac{150}{5} = 30 \\
\end{aligned}
