Let area 100 m2Then, side = 10 m New side = 125 % of 10= (125/100) x 10= 12.5 m New area = 12.5 x 12.5 m2=(12.5)2 sq. m? Increase in area = (12.5)2 - (10)2 m2= 22.5 x 2.5 m2=56.25 m2% Increase = 56.25 %
Given that, area = 40 sq cm, base = 28 cm and height = perpendicular = ?Area = (base x perpendicular) / 2 ? 40 = (28 x perpendicular) / 2 ? perpendicular = 40/14 = 20/7 = 26/7 cm
Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres. Original area = (xy) m2. New length = ❨ 120 x ❩m = ❨ 6 x ❩m. 100 5 New breadth = ❨ 120 y ❩m = ❨ 6 y ❩m. 100 5 New Area = ❨ 6 x x 6 y ❩m2 = ❨ 36 xy ❩m2. 5 5 25 The difference between the original area = xy and new-area 36/25 xy is = (36/25)xy - xy = xy(36/25 - 1) = xy(11/25) or (11/25)xy ∴ Increase % = ❨ 11 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 44%
