The cost of fencing a square field @ Rs. 20 per metre is Rs.10.080.How much will it cost to lay a three meter wide pavement along the fencing inside the field @ Rs. 50 per sq m
perimeter = total cost / cost per m = 10080 /20 = 504mside of the square = 504/4 = 126mbreadth of the pavement = 3mside of inner square = 126 - 6 = 120marea of the pavement = (126 x126) - (120 x 120) = 246 x 6 sq mcost of pavement = 246*6*50 = Rs. 73800
Let the side of the square(ABCD) be x metres. Then, AB + BC = 2x metres. AC = √2x = (1.41x) m. Saving on 2x metres = (0.59x) m. Saving % = ❨ 0.59x x 100 ❩% = 30%
In a triangleSum of two sides is always greater than 3rd side i.e., x < 25 + 15 = 40 .....(i)Difference of two sides is always less than 3rd side i.e., 25 - 15 = 10 < x ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii) , we get 10 < x < 40
Area of the room =(544 x 374) cm2size of largest square tile = H.C.F. of 544 & 374 = 34 cm Area of 1 tile = (34 x 34) cm2? Least number of tiles required = (544 x 374) / (34 x 34) = 176
