Area Problems
A rectangular lawn 55m by 35m has two roads each 4m wide running in the middle of it. One parallel to the length and the other parallel to breadth. The cost of graveling the roads at 75 paise per sq meter is
Area of 4 walls = 2(l+b)h=2(10+7) x 5 = 170 sq mArea of 2 doors and 3 windows = 2(1x3)+(2x1.5)+2(1x1.5) = 12 sq marea to be planted = 170 -12 = 158 sq m Cost of painting = Rs. 158 x 3 = Rs. 474
Perimeter = Distance covered in 8 min. = ❨ 12000 x 8 ❩m = 1600 m. 60 Let length = 3x metres and breadth = 2x metres. Then, 2(3x + 2x) = 1600 or x = 160. ∴ Length = 480 m and Breadth = 320 m. ∴ Area = (480 x 320) m2 = 153600 m2
