Area Problems
The question given below contain two statements giving certain data. You have to decide whether the data given in the statements are sufficient for answering the question ? Question : What is the height of a right-angled triangle ? Statements : A. The area of the triangle is 20 times its base. B. The perimeter of the triangle is equal to that of a square of the side 10 cm.
In a triangleSum of two sides is always greater than 3rd side i.e., x < 25 + 15 = 40 .....(i)Difference of two sides is always less than 3rd side i.e., 25 - 15 = 10 < x ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii) , we get 10 < x < 40
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 the longer side = l, shorter side = b and diagonal = dThen, area of rectangular carpet = l x b = 60 ....(1) And from question d + l = 5b? d = 5b - l ...(2)? d2 = 25b2 + l2 - 10 x lb? l2+ b2 = 25b2 + l2 - 10 x lb? l2+b2 = 25b2 + l2 - 10 x 60? 24b2 = 600? b = ?25 = 5 m? l = 60 / b = 60 / 5 = 12 m
