Area Problems
The two parallel sides of a trapezium are 1 meters and 2 meters respectively . The perpendicular distance between them is 6 meters. The area of the trapezium is?
Let h be the altitude of triangle.So area of triangle = (1/2)xh area of square = x2From question area of square = area of triangle x2 = (1/2)xh ? h = (2x2)/x = 2x
Let each side of the square be a. Then, area = . a 2 New side = 125 a 100 = 5 a 4 . New area = 5 a 4 2 = 25 a 2 16 Increase in area = 25 a 2 16 - a 2 = 9 a 2 16 Increase% = 9 a 2 16 * 1 a 2 * 100 % = 56.25%.
Let the radius of the park be r, then?r + 2r = 288(? + 2)r = 288? [(22/7) + 2]r = 288? r = (288 x 7)/36 = 56 ? Area of the park = (1/2)?r2= (1/2) x (22/7) x 56 x 56= 4928
