Area Problems
A circular road runs rounds a circular ground. If the difference between the circumference of the outer circle and the inner circle is 66 meters, the width of the road is?
Circular piece is 4 x 11 = 44 cm long, Then Circumference of circle is given by, 44 = pi x D, where D is the diameter D = 44 / pi Take pi = 22 / 7, then D = 44 / (22/7) = (44 x 7) / 22 D = 14 cm.
Area to be plastered = [2(l + b) x h] + (l x b) = {[2(25 + 12) x 6] + (25 x 12)} m2 = (444 + 300) m2 = 744 m2. ∴ Cost of plastering = Rs. ❨ 744 x 75 ❩ = Rs. 558
Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres. Original area = xy sq.m Increased length = 120 100 and Increased breadth = 120 100 New area = 120 100 x * 120 100 y = 36 25 x y m 2 The difference between the Original area and New area is: 36 25 x y - x y 11 25 x y Increase % = 11 25 x y x y * 100 = 44%
