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
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
