Area Problems
A rectangular park 60 m long and 40 m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the park and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. If the area of the lawn is 2109 sq. m, then what is the width of the road?
Area of the park = (60 x 40) m2 = 2400 m2. Area of the lawn = 2109 m2. ∴ Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) m2 = 291 m2. Let the width of the road be x metres. Then, 60x + 40x - x2 = 291 ⟹ x2 - 100x + 291 = 0 ⟹ (x - 97)(x - 3) = 0 ⟹ x = 3
? 22/7 x r2 = 13.86 x 10000? r2 = (13.86 x 10000 x 7) / 22? r = 210 m ? Circumference = [2 x (22/7) x 210 ] m = 1320 m Cost of fencing = Rs. (1320 x 20)/100= Rs . 264
Circumference = No.of revolutions * Distance covered Distance to be covered in 1 min. = (66 X1000)/60 m = 1100 m.Circumference of the wheel = 2 x (22/7) x 0.70 m = 4.4 m.Number of revolutions per min. =(1100/4.4) = 250.
