Area Problems
The length of a rectangle is twice its breadth. If its length is decreased by 5 cm and the breadth is increased by 5 cm, the area of the rectangle is increased by 75 cm 2 . Therefore , the length of the rectangle is?
Let length = L and breadth = BLet , New breadth = ZThen, New length = ( 160 / 100) L.= 8L / 5? 8L / 5 x Z = LBor Z = 5B/8Decrease in breadth = (B-5B/8)= 3B/8? Decrease in percent = (3B/8 x1/B ) x 100 %= 371/2%
Area of square plate = (Side)2 = (2d)2= 4d2Area of circular plate = ? (d/2)2= ?d2/4? Number of square plates = [(4d2)/4] / [(?d2)/4]= (4 x 4)/? ? 5Since, nearest integer value is 5.
