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 base = b and altitude = h Then, Area = b x h But New base = 110b / 100 = 11b / 10Let New altitude = HThen, Decrese = (h - 10h /11 )= h / 11? Required decrease per cent = (h/11) x (1 / h ) x 100 %= 91/11 %
Cross section area = 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d where a and b are the parallel sides, d is the perpendicular distance between them.? 1/2 x ( a + b ) x d = 640? d = (640 x 2) / 16 = 80m
