Area Problems
Radhika runs along the boundary of a rectangular park at the rate of 12 km/hr and completes one full round in 15 minutes. If the length of the park is 4 times its breadth , the area of the park is?
Speed = 12 x (5/18) m/sec =10/3 m/sec there4; perimeter = (10/3) x 15 x 60 m=3000 m? 2( a + 4a) = 3000 m? a = 300 mSo, length = 1200 m and breadth = 300 m ? Area = (1200 x 300 ) m2 = 360000m2
Let lateral side = (5y) cm and base = (4y) cm ? perimeter = 5y + 5y + 4y = 14 ?y = 1So, the sides are 5 cm , 5 cm and 4 cm Now s= 1/2 (5 + 5 + 4) cm = 7 cm (s-a) = 2 cm (s-b) = 2 cm and (s-c) = 3 cm? Required Area = ? (7 x 2 x 2 x 3) cm2=2?21 cm2
Area of the square field = 1 hectare = 10000 m2Side of the square = ? 10000 m = 100 mSide of another square field = 100 + 1 = 101 m? Required difference of area = [(101)2 - (100)2] m2=[(101 + 100 ) (101 - 100) ] m2= 201 m2
Let breadth = b meters. then, length = 3b/2 meters ? b x 3b/2 = 2/3 X 10000? b2 = (4 x 10000)/9? b = ( 2 X 100)/3 m ? Length = (3/2) x (2/3) x 100 m= 100 m
