Area Problems
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
Area of park = 100 x 100 = 10000 m2Area of circular lawn = Area of park - area of park excluding circular lawn= 10000 - 8614 = 1386Now again area of circular lawn = (22/7) x r2 = 1386 m2? r2 = (1386 x 7) / 22= 63 x 7= 3 x 3 x 7 x 7? r = 21 m
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
We have: (l - b) = 23 and 2(l + b) = 206 or (l + b) = 103. Solving the two equations, we get: l = 63 and b = 40. ∴ Area = (l x b) = (63 x 40) m2 = 2520 m2
Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Decrease in area = xy - ❨ 80 x x 90 y ❩ 100 100 = ❨ xy - 18 xy ❩ 25 = 7 xy. 25 ∴ Decrease % = ❨ 7 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 28%
