Area Problems
A man riding a bicycle, completes one lap of a circular field along its circumference at the speed of 14.4 km/h in 1 min 28 s. What is the area of the field?
The man takes 3600 s for 14.4 km The man will take 88 s for 14.4 x (88/3600) = 352/1000 km = 352 m Now, circumference of circular field = 352 m ? 2?r = 352 m2 x (22/7) x r = 352 ? r = 56 m Therefore, area of the field = ?r2= (22/7) x 56 x 56 = 8 x 22 x 56 m2= 9856 sq m.
Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Decrease in area = xy - ❨ 80 x x 90 y ❩ 100 100 = ❨ xy - 18 xy ❩ 25 = 7 xy. 25 ∴ Decrease % = ❨ 7 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 28%
Area of the plot = (3 x 1200) m2= 3600 m2Let breadth = y metersThen Length = 4y meters,Now area = 4y x y = 3600 m2? y2 = 900 m2? y = 30 m? Length of plot = 4y m= (4 x 30) m=120 m
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.
