Area Problems
The base of a triangular field is three times its altitude. If the cost of cultivating the field at Rs. 24.68 per hectare be Rs. 333.18, find its base and height.
Area of the field = Total cost/rate = (333.18/25.6) = 13.5 hectares 13 . 5 * 10000 m 2 = 135000 m 2 Let altitude = x metres and base = 3x metres.Then, 1 2 * 3 x * x = 135000 ? x 2 = 90000 ? x = 300 Base = 900 m and Altitude = 300 m.
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
According to the question,l/[2(l + b)] = 5/18? 10l + 10b = 18l = 10b? l/b = 10/8 = 5/4? l : b = 5 : 4Hence, ratio of length and breadth of a rectangle is 5 : 4
let original radius = r and new radius = (50/100) r = r/2 original area = ?r 2 and new area = ? r / 2 2 decrease in area = 3 ?r 2 / 4 * 1 ?r 2 *100 = 75%
