Area Problems
The sides of a triangle area in the ratio of 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 and its perimeter is 94 cm. Find the length of the smallest side of the triangle .
Given ratio = 1/3 : 1/4 : 1/5 = 20 : 15 : 12Let length of the sides be 20k, 15k and 12k.Then, according to the question,20k + 15k + 12k = 94? 47k = 94? k = 94/47 = 2Smallest side = 12k = 12 x 2 = 24 cm
Area of the carpet = Area of the room = 8 x 6 = 48 sq mWidth of the carpet = 75/100 = 3/4 mLength of the carpet = 48 x (4/3) = 16 x 4 = 64 m? Cost of carpeting = 64 x 20 = ? 1280
Distance travelled in 1 revolution = circumference of the wheel = ?d= ( 22/7 ) x 63= 198 cmSo the distance travelled in 100 revolutions = 100 x distance travelled in 1 revolution = 100 x 198 cm= 19800 cm = 198 m
Area of square room = (10)2 = 100 sq m= 100 x (100)2 sq cm= 100 x 100 x 100 sq cmNow, area of tiles = (50)2 = 50 x 50 sq cm? Number of tiles needed = (Area of square room) / (Area of tile)= (100 x 100 x 100) / (50 x 50) = 400Hence, 400 tiles will be needed.
