Area Problems
Area of rectangular field is 3584 m 2 and the length and the breadth are in the ratio 7 : 2, respectively. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?
Let length of the rectangular field = 7k m and breadth of the rectangular field = 2k mAccording to the question,Area of a rectangular field = Length x Breadth? 3584 = 7k x 2k ? 14 x k2 = 3584 ? k2 = 3584/14 = 256? k2 = 256 = 16 m? Length of rectangular field = 7k = 7 x 16 = 112 mAnd breadth of rectangular field = 2 x 16 = 32 m? Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length x Breadth)= 2(112 + 32) = 2 x 144 = 288 m
Cross section area = 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d where a and b are the parallel sides, d is the perpendicular distance between them.? 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d = 640? d = (640 x 2) / 16 = 80m
Circular piece is 4 x 11 = 44 cm long, Then Circumference of circle is given by, 44 = pi x D, where D is the diameter D = 44 / pi Take pi = 22 / 7, then D = 44 / (22/7) = (44 x 7) / 22 D = 14 cm.
