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 the field = Total cost/rate = (333.18/25.6) = 13.5 hectares 13 . 5 * 10000 m 2 = 135000 m 2 Let altitude = x metres and base = 3x metres.Then, 1 2 * 3 x * x = 135000 ? x 2 = 90000 ? x = 300 Base = 900 m and Altitude = 300 m.
Let l = 4k and b = 9kArea of rectangle = l x b144 = 4k x 9k ? k2 = 144/36 ? k2 = 4? k = 2? l = 8 cm and b = 18 cmPerimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)= 2(8 + 18)= 2 x 26= 52 cm
Area to the rectangular field = 12375/15 = 825 sq mAccording to the question, (L x B) = 825 [L = length and B = breadth]? L x 25 = 825 ? L = 825/25 = 33 m
