Area Problems
A room of 5m 44cm long and 3m 74cm broad is to be paved with squre tiles. Find the least number of squre tiles required to cover the floor.
area of the room = 544 x 374 sq.cm size of largest square tile = H.C.F of 544cm and 374 cm= 34 cm area of 1 tile = 34x34 sq cm no. of tiles required = (544 x 374) / (34 x 34) = 176
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
Diagonal of square = ?2a [a = side]4?2 = ?2 a a = 4 cmNow, area of square = a2 = (42) = 16Side of a square whose area is 2 x 16.a12 = 32 ? a1 = ?32 ?a14?2Now, diagonal of new square = ?2a = ?2x 4 ?2 = 8 cm
Area of the carpet = Area of the room = 8 x 6 = 48 sq mWidth of the carpet = 75/100 = 3/4 mLength of the carpet = 48 x (4/3) = 16 x 4 = 64 m? Cost of carpeting = 64 x 20 = ? 1280
