Area Problems
A hall 20 m long and 15 m broad is surrounded by a verandah of uniform width of 2.5 m. the cost of flooring the verandah at the rate of 3.50 per sq. meter is?
Let length = L and breadth = BLet , New breadth = ZThen, New length = ( 160 / 100) L.= 8L / 5? 8L / 5 x Z = LBor Z = 5B/8Decrease in breadth = (B-5B/8)= 3B/8? Decrease in percent = (3B/8 x1/B ) x 100 %= 371/2%
Area of park = 100 x 100 = 10000 m2Area of circular lawn = Area of park - area of park excluding circular lawn= 10000 - 8614 = 1386Now again area of circular lawn = (22/7) x r2 = 1386 m2? r2 = (1386 x 7) / 22= 63 x 7= 3 x 3 x 7 x 7? r = 21 m
Original breadth of rectangle = 720/30 = 24 cmNow , area of rectangle = (5/4) x 720 = 900 cm2? New length of rectangle = 900/24 = 37.5 cm? New perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+ b)= 2(37.5 + 24 ) = 2 x 61.5 = 123 cm
