Area Problems
The diagonal of the floor of a rectangular closet is 7½ feet. The shorter side of the closet is 4½ feet. What is the area of the closet in square feet?
Let the side of the square = y cmThen, breadth of the rectangle = 3y/2 cm ? Area of rectangle = (40 x 3y/2) cm2= 60y cm2? 60y = 3y2? y = 20Hence, the side of the square = 20 cm
Diameter of the circle = 13 + 5 = 18 cm? Radius = Diameter/2 =18/2 = 9 cm Area of the circle = ?r2 = (22/7) x 92 = (22 x 81)/9 = 1782/7 = 254.57 sq cm= 255 sq cm
