Area Problems
The cost of papering the four walls of a room is Rs. 48. Each one of length, breadth and height of another room is double that of this room.The cost of papering the walls of the new room is?
Let the length, breadth and height of the room be l, b and h respectively As per question Cost of 2(l + b) x h = Rs. 48 ? Required cost = cost of 2 (2l + 2b) x 2h= cost of 4 [2(l + b) x h ]= 4 x Rs. 48= Rs. 192
Let l = 4k and b = 9kArea of rectangle = l x b144 = 4k x 9k ? k2 = 144/36 ? k2 = 4? k = 2? l = 8 cm and b = 18 cmPerimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)= 2(8 + 18)= 2 x 26= 52 cm
Let the radius of the park be r, then?r + 2r = 288(? + 2)r = 288? [(22/7) + 2]r = 288? r = (288 x 7)/36 = 56 ? Area of the park = (1/2)?r2= (1/2) x (22/7) x 56 x 56= 4928
Let Length = 5y meters and breadth = 3y meters.Then, perimeter = 2 x (5y + 3y ) m = 16y meters ...(i)But perimeter = Total Cost / Rate = 3000 / 7.50 m = 400 m ...(ii)from eqs. (i) and (ii)16y = 400? y = 25? Length - Breadth = (5 x 25 - 3 x 25 ) m = 2 x 25 m = 50 m
Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Original area = xy. New length = x . 2 New breadth = 3y. New area = ❨ x x 3y ❩ = 3 xy. 2 2 ∴ Increase % = ❨ 1 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 50%
