Let there be n sides of the polygon. Then it has n vertices. The total number of straight lines obtained by joining n vertices by talking 2 at a time is nC2 These nC2 lines also include n sides of polygon. Therefore, the number of diagonals formed is nC2 - n. Thus, nC2 - n = 44? [n(n - 1)/2] - n = 44? ( n2 - 3n) / 2 = 44? n2 - 3n = 88 ? n2 - 3n - 88 = 0 ?(n - 11) (n + 8) = 0 ? n = 11
Let the width of the room be x membersThen, its area = (4x) m2Area of each new square room = (2x)m2Let the side of each new room = y metersThen, y2 = 2xClearly, 2x is a complete square when x=2? y2 = 4? y = 2 m .
let the side of the square be x meterslength of two sides = 2x metersdiagonal = 2 x = 1.414x m saving on 2x meters = .59x m saving % = 0 . 59 x 2 x * 100 % = 30% (approx)
Length of carpet = Total Cost / Rate = 3600 / 30 = 120 mArea of carpet = (120 x 75) / 100 m2= 90 m2? Area of the room = 90 m2Breadth of the room = Area /Length = 90 / 15 m = 6m
