A. 1.5 times

B. 2 times

C. 3 times

D. 4 times


Answer:

Let b be the side and h be the height of a rhombus.
∴ Area of rhombus = b × h


[∵ area of rhombus = base × corresponding height]


If each side of rhombus is doubled, then side of rhombus = 2b
Now, area of rhombus = 2b × h = 2(b × h)


= 2 times of original


Hence, the area of rhombus will be increased by 2 times.


Question 29.

If the sides of a parallelogram are increased to twice its original lengths, how much will the perimeter of the new parallelogram?
A. 1.5 times

B. 2 times

C. 3 times

D. 4 times


Answer:

Let the length and breadth of the parallelogram be l and b, respectively.


⇒ Then, perimeter = 2(l + b) [∵ perimeter of parallelogram = 2 × (length + breadth)]


⇒ If both sides are increased twice, then new length and breadth will be 2l and 2b, respectively.


⇒ Now, new perimeter = 2(2l + 2b)


⇒ 2 × 2(l + b)


⇒ 2 times of original perimeter.


Hence, the perimeter of parallelogram will be increased 2 times


Question 30.

If radius of a circle is increased to twice its original length, how much will the area of the circle increase?

Answer:

Let the side of square be a cm


area of a square = 100 cm2


area of square = a2


⇒ a2 = 100cm2


⇒ a = 10cm


Now for the largest circle in the square, diameter of the circle must be equal to the side of the square


Diameter = side of square = 10cm


⇒ 2r = 10cm


⇒ r = 5cm


Circumference of the circle = 2πr


⇒ 2 π×5


⇒ 10 π

In Fig. 9.25, area of parallelogram BCEF is ________cm2 where ACDF is a rectangle.



Answer:

We know,


Area of parallelogram = Base × Height


Clearly, Height of parallelogram BCEF = CD


Area of parallelogram BCEF = EF × CD


Since BCEF is a parallelogram,


BC = EF [Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]… [Eq 1]


Also, ACDF is a rectangle


AC = FD [Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal]… [Eq 2]


Subtracting Eq 1 from Eq 2, we get


AC – BC = FD – EF


⇒ AB = ED


⇒ ED = 3 cm [∵ AB = 3 cm]


Also,


EF = FD – ED


⇒ EF = 10 cm – 3 cm = 7 cm [∵ FD = 10 cm]


Therefore,


Area of parallelogram BCEF


= EF × CD


= 7 cm × 5 cm [∵ CD = 5 cm]


= 35 cm2

Question 73.

A hedge boundary needs to be planted around a rectangular lawn of size 72 m × 18 m. If 3 shrubs can be planted in a metre of hedge, how many shrubs will be planted in all?


Answer:


Given, length of the lawn = 72 m


Breadth of the lawn = 18 m


We know that, perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (l + b)


So, perimeter of the lawn = 2 × (72 + 18) = 2 × 90 = 180 m


i.e. Length of hedge boundary = 180 m


No. of shrubs to be planted in 1 m of hedge = 3


No. of shrubs to be planted in 18 0m of hedge = 3 × 180 = 540



Question 74.

People of Khejadli village take good care of plants, trees and animals. They say that plants and animals can survive without us, but we can not survive without them. Inspired by her elders Amrita marked some land for her pets (camel and ox) and plants. Find the ratio of the areas kept for animals and plants to the living area.



Answer:

Using the formula: Area of a rectangle = l × b


Total area of land= 15 × 10=150 m2


Area kept for camel = 5 × 3 = 15 m2


Area kept for plants = 9 × 1 = 9 m2


Now, diameter of the circular field kept for ox = 2.8 m


Radius = =1.4 m


Using the formula: Area of a circle = ∏r2


Area kept for ox = × (1.4)2 = 6.16 m2


Area kept for animals = 15 + 9 + 6.16 = 30.16 m2


Living area = Total area of land – Area kept for animals = 150 – 30.16 = 119.84 m2



Ratio of the area kept for animals and plants to that of the living area = 377:1498



Question 75.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 40 m. Its length is four metres less than five times its breadth. Find the area of the rectangle.


Answer:

Let breadth of the rectangle be x.


Then, length of the rectangle = 5x – 4


We know that perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (l + b)


40 = 2 × (x + 5x - 4)


40 = 2 × (6x - 4)


12x - 8 = 40


12x = 48


x = = 4


So, breadth of the rectangle = x = 4 m


Length of the rectangle = 5x – 4 = 5 × 4 – 4 = 20 – 4 = 16 m


Area of rectangle = l × b = 16 × 4 = 64 m2


Hence, area of rectangle = 64 m2



Question 76.

A wall of a room is of dimensions 5 m × 4 m. It has a window of dimensions 1.5 m × 1m and a door of dimensions 2.25 m × 1m. Find the area of the wall which is to be painted.

Given, a wall of a room is of dimensions 1.5 m × 1m.


Area of the wall = l × b = 5 × 4 = 20 m2


Area of the window = l × b = 1.5 × 1 = 1.5 m2


Area of the door = l × b = 2.25 × 1 = 2.25 m2


Area of the wall to be painted = Area of the wall – (Area of the window + Area of the door)


∴ Area of the wall to be painted = 20 – (1.5 + 2.25) = 20 – 3.75 = 16.25m2


Area of the wall which is to be painted= 16.25 m2



Question 77.

And breadth = 2 m


We know that,


Area of a rectangle = l × b


⇒ l × 2 = 8


⇒ l = 4 m


MNOP is made up of 4 congruent rectangles, i.e. they have same dimensions (equal length and breadth).


∴ Perimeter of MNOP = PF + FA + AM + MN + NC + CD + DO + OP


= 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 4


= 24 m


The perimeter of MNOP = 24 m

and area of a parallelogram = b × h (corresponding height)


Given, Area of ∆AFB = Area of parallelogram ABCD


× AB × EF = DC × h


× 10 × 16 = 10 × h


10h = 80


h = 8 m


O is the mid point of DC, hence DO = × DC = × 10 = 5 m


Area of ∆DAO = × DO × h = × 5 × 8 = 20 m2

We know that, area of a triangle = × b × h


Given, Area of ∆WXZ = 56 cm2


× XZ × 8 = 56


XZ = = 14 cm







4XY = 42 – 3XY


7XY = 42


XY = 6 cm


YZ = XZ – XY = 14 – 6 = 8 cm


So, XY = 6 cm and YZ = 8 cm

(ii) Find the area of the square field excluding the lawn.



Answer:

Given, side of the square = 70 m


Diameter of the semicircular lawn = side of the square = 70 m


∴ Radius = × 70 = 35 m


We know that circumference C of a circle of radius r, is C = 2πr


Perimeter of a semicircle = × 2πr + 2r = πr + 2r


i) So, perimeter of the lawn = × 35 + 2 × 35 = 110 + 70 = 180 m


ii) Area of square = (side)2 = (70)2 = 4900 m2


Area of semicircular lawn = × πr2 = × × (35)2 = 11 × 5 × 35 = 1925 m2


Area of the square field excluding the lawn = Area of square - Area of semicircular lawn


= 4900- 1925 = 2975 m2

Price of 1 cm2 of square pizza = = Rs. 13.5


Diameter of circular pizza = 50 cm


i.e. Radius = =25 cm


∴ Area of circular pizza = πr2 = × (25)2 =1964.28 cm2


Price of 1964.28 cm2 of square pizza = Rs. 160


Price of 1 cm2 of circular pizza = = Rs. 12.27


Since price of 1 cm2 of circular pizza is lesser, hence circular pizza is a better deal.

Question 85.

In the given triangles of Fig. 9.39, perimeter of ∆ABC = perimeter of ∆PQR. Find the area of ∆ABC.



Answer:

Given, perimeter of ∆ABC = perimeter of ∆PQR


AB + BC + CA = PQ + QR + RP


AB + 5 + 13 = 6 + 10 + 14


AB + 18 = 30


∴ AB = 30 – 18 = 12 cm


We know that, Area of triangle = × b × h


∴ Area of ∆ABC = × BC × AB = × 5 × 12 = 30 cm2



Question 86.

Altitudes MN and MO of parallelogram MGHK are 8 cm and 4 cm long respectively (Fig. 9.40). One side GH is 6 cm long. Find the perimeter of MGHK.



Answer:

We know that, Area of a parallelogram = b × h (corresponding height)


Area of MGHK with GH as base = Area of MGHK with HK as base


GH × MN = HK × MO


6 × 8 = HK × 4


∴ HK = 12 cm


Since opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal to each other,


MK = GH = 6 cm


GM = HK = 8 cm


∴ Perimeter of parallelogram MGHK = GM + MK + KH + HG = 8 + 6 + 8 + 6 = 36 cm

Area of ∆PQR = 20 cm2


× QR × PQ = 20


× 5 × PQ = 20


∴ PQ = 8 cm


Area of ∆PQS = 44 cm2


× QS × PQ = 44


× QS × 8 = 44


∴ QS = 11 cm


RS = QS – QR = 11 – 5 = 6 cm


Length of RS = 6 cm

∴ BC = 12 cm


In an isosceles triangle, the altitude divides base into half.


So, DC = = 6 cm


Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆ADC,


(AD)2 + (DC)2 = (AC)2


(8)2 + (6)2 = (AC)2


(AC)2 = 64 + 36 = 100


AC =√100 = 10 cm


Now, AB = AC = 10 cm


Perimeter of ∆ABC = 10 + 10 + 12 = 32 cm



Question 89.

Perimeter of a parallelogram shaped land is 96 m and its area is 270 square metres. If one of the sides of this parallelogram is 18 m, find the length of the other side. Also, find the lengths of altitudes l and m (Fig. 9.42).



Answer:

AB = DC =18 m


Perimeter of parallelogram ABCD = AB + BC + CD + DA


96 = 18 + BC + 18 + BC


(opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)


2 BC = 96 – 36 = 60


BC = AD = 30 m


Given, area of parallelogram ABCD = 270 m2



We know that,


Area of a parallelogram = b × h (corresponding height)


Taking AB as the base,


AB × l = 270


18 × l = 270


l = 15 m


Taking AD as the base,


AD × m = 270


30 × m = 270


m = 9 m


Length of the other side = 30 m


Length of altitude l = 15 m


Length of altitude m = 9 m



Question 90.

Area of a triangle PQR right-angled at Q is 60 cm2 (Fig. 9.43). If the smallest side is 8cm long, find the length of the other two sides.



Answer:


Given, area of ∆PQR = 60 cm2 with PQ = 8 cm


We know that, Area of triangle = × b × h


Area of ∆PQR = 60 cm2


× PQ × QR = 60


× 8 × QR = 60


∴ QR = 15 cm


Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆PQR,


(PQ)2 + (QR)2 = (PR)2


(8)2 + (15)2 = (PR)2


(PR)2 = 64 + 225 = 289


AC =√289 = 17 cm


Hence, the length of two sides are 15 cm and 17 cm.



Question 91.

In Fig. 9.44 a rectangle with perimeter 264 cm is divided into five congruent rectangles. Find the perimeter of one of the rectangles.



Answer:

Since the rectangles are congruent, their length and breadth are equal.



Given, Perimeter of the rectangle = 264 cm


It can be observed from the figure that


4l + 5b = 264


And 2l = 3b


On solving the above equations:


11b = 264


⇒ b = 24 cm


∴ l = × 24 = 36 cm


Hence, perimeter of smaller rectangles = 2 × (l + b) = 2 × (36 + 24) = 120 cm

Answer:

We know that, area of rectangle = l × b


And area of semicircle = × ∏r2


Area of rectangle = 10.2 × 1.5 = 15.3 cm2


Now, Diameter of the semicircle = 10.2 – 3.9 = 6.3 cm


So, radius = = 3.15 cm


Area of semicircle = × × 3.15 × 3.15 = 15.5925 cm2


Total area = Area of rectangle + Area of semicircle = 15.3 + 15.5925 = 30.8925 cm2


∴ Total area = 30.8925 cm2



Question 95.

Find the area enclosed by each of the following figures :



Answer:

We know that, area of rectangle = l × b


And area of triangle = × b × h


Area of rectangle = 13 × 4 = 52 cm2


Now, base of triangle = 13 – 8 = 5 cm


And height of triangle = 16 – 4 = 12 cm


Area of triangle = × 5 × 12 = 30 cm2


Total area = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle = 52 + 30 = 82 cm2


∴ Total area = 82 cm2



Question 96.

Find the area enclosed by each of the following figures :



Answer:

We know that, area of rectangle = l × b


And area of triangle = × b × h

Now, base of triangle = 15 – 10 = 5 cm


Given, height of triangle = 4 cm


Area of triangle = × 5 × 4 = 10 cm2


Total area = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle =45 + 10 = 55 cm2


∴ Total area = 55 cm2



Question 97.

Find the area enclosed by each of the following figures :



Answer:

We know that, area of triangle = × b × h


And area of semicircle = × ∏r2


Radius of the semicircle = 10 cm


Area of semicircle = × × 10 × 10 = cm2 = 157.14 cm2


Base of triangle = diameter of the semicircle = 2 × 10 = 20 cm


Height of the triangle = 17 – r = 17 – 10 = 7 cm


Area of triangle = × 20 × 7 = 70 cm2


Total area = Area of semicircle + Area of triangle = 157.14 + 70 = 227.14 cm2


∴ Total area = 227.14 cm2



Question 98.

Find the areas of the shaded region:



Answer:

Radius of the smaller circle, r = cm

∴ Area of shaded region = 303 cm2



Question 99.

Find the areas of the shaded region:



Answer:

Diameter of the small circles = cm


Radius of the small circles = cm


Area of two small circles = 2 × = cm2 = 4.8 cm2


Diameter of the large circle =14 cm


Radius of the large circle = × 7 × 7 = 154 cm2


Area of shaded region = Radius of the large circle - Area of two small circles = 154 - 4.8 = 149.2 cm2


∴ Area of shaded region = 149.2 cm2



Question 100.

Question 102.

ABCD is a parallelogram in which AE is perpendicular to CD (Fig. 9.54). Also AC = 5 cm, DE = 4 cm, and the area of ∆AED = 6 cm2. Find the perimeter and area of ABCD.



Answer:

Given, area of ∆AED = 6 cm2


× DE × AE = 6


× 4 × AE = 6


AE = 3 cm


In ∆AEC, AE = 3 cm, AC = 5 cm


Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆AEC,


(AE)2 + (EC)2 = (AC)2


(3)2 + (EC)2 = (5)2


(EC)2 = 25 - 9 = 16


EC =√16 = 4 cm


DC = DE + EC = 4 + 4 = 8 cm


Area of ∆ADC = × DC × AE = × 8 × 3 = 12 cm2


Since the diagonal divides the parallelogram into two congruent triangles,


Area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 × Area of ∆ADC = 2 × 12 = 24 cm2


Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆AED,


(AE)2 + (DE)2 = (AD)2


(3)2 + (4)2 = (AD)2


(AD)2 = 9 + 16 = 25


AD =√25 = 5 cm


Perimeter of parallelogram ABCD = 2 (l + b) = 2(DC + AD) = 2(8 + 5) = 26 cm


Area of parallelogram ABCD = 24 cm2


Perimeter of parallelogram ABCD = 26 cm

Question 104.

A table cover of dimensions 3 m 25 cm × 2 m 30 cm is spread on a table. If 30 cm of the table cover is hanging all around the table, find the area of the table cover which is hanging outside the top of the table. Also find the cost of polishing the table top at Rs. 16 per square metre.


Answer:

Given, Length of the table cover = 3 m 25 cm = 3.25 m


and Breadth of the table cover = 2 m 30 cm = 2.3 m


Area of the table cover = 3.25 × 2.3 = 7.475 m2


The table cover hangs 30 cm around the table, and so:


Length of the table top = Length of the table cover – 30 cm= 3.25 m - 2 × 0.3 m= 2.65 m


Breadth of the table top = Breadth of the table cover – 30 cm = 2.3 m – 2 × 0.3 m = 1.7 m


Area of the table top = 2.65 × 1.7 = 4.505 m2


Area of the hanging cover = Area of the table cover - Area of the table top


= 7.475 – 4.505 = 2.97 m2


Cost of polishing 1 m2 of table top = Rs. 16


∴ Cost of polishing 4.505 m2 of table top = Rs. 4.505 × 16 = Rs. 72.08


Area of the hanging cover = 2.97 m2


Cost of polishing 4.505 m2 of table top = Rs. 4.505 × 16 = Rs. 72.08

Question 108.

Priyanka took a wire and bent it to form a circle of radius 14 cm. Then she bent it into a rectangle with one side 24 cm long. What is the length of the wire? Which figure encloses more area, the circle or the rectangle?


Answer:

Given, radius of the circle = 14 cm


and length of the rectangle = 24 cm


Since the same wire is rebent to form different shapes,


Perimeter of rectangle = Circumference of circle


2 × (l + b) = 2∏r


2 × (24 + b) = 2 × × 14


24 + b = 44


⇒ b = 44 - 24 = 20 cm


Area of rectangle = l × b = 24 × 20 = 480 cm2


And area of circle = ∏r2 = × 14 × 14 = 616 cm2


Hence, circle encloses more area than the rectangle.



Question 109.

We know that the circumference of a circle =2∏r


Given, circumference of outer circle = 44 m


2∏R = 44


2 × × R = 44


R = 7 m


R = R – 2 = 7 – 2 = 5 m


Inner circumference = 2 × 3.14 × 5 = 3.14 m


Area of the path = Area of outer circle - area of inner circle


=∏R2 - ∏r2 =∏(R2 - r2)


= 3.14 (72 – 52) = 3.14 × (49 – 25) = 3.14 × 24 = 75.36 m2



Question 111.

A carpet of size 5 m × 2 m has 25 cm wide red border. The inner part of the carpet is blue in color (Fig. 9.56). Find the area of blue portion. What is the ratio of areas of red portion to blue portion?



Answer:

Length of the carpet = 5 m


Breadth of the carpet = 2m


∴ Area of the carpet =5 × 2 = 10 m2


Length of border = 25 cm = 0.25 m


Length of inner blue portion = Length of the carpet - 2 × length of border = 5 - 2 × 0.25 = 4.5 m


Breadth of inner blue portion = Breadth of the carpet - 2 × breadth of border = 2 - 2 × 0.25 = 1.5 m


Area of blue portion = 4.5 × 1.5 = 6.75 m2


Area of red portion = Area of the carpet - Area of blue portion= 10 – 6.75 = 3.25 m2



Ratio of areas of red portion to that of blue portion = 13:27

Answer:

A. Area of land used to grow hay = 17.8 × 10.6 = 188.68 m2


B. Area of vegetable garden = 49 × 15.2 = 744.8 m2


Cost of fertilizing 1 m2 of vegetable garden = Rs. 91


∴ Cost of fertilizing 744.8 m2 of vegetable garden = 91 × 744.8 = Rs. 67,776.8


C. Perimeter of the house = 2 × (l + b) = 2 × (18.7 + 12.6) = 2 × 31.3 = 62.6 m


D. Area of the orchard = 20 × 15.7 = 314 m2


No. of banana trees that can be planted in 1.25 m2 of ground space =1

= (5x + 65) m2


B. Perimeter of the living room = 15 + 2 + 5 + (15 – x) + 5 + x + 2 = 44 m


C. Total area of the bedrooms and the living room


= area of bedroom1 + (area of bedroom 2 + area of living room)


= 5x + 15 × 7


= (5x + 105) m2


Cost of carpeting (5x + 105) m2 at the cost of Rs. 50/ m2 = 50 × (5x + 105) = Rs. 250(x + 21)


D. Total area of bathroom and kitchen = (15 – x) × 5 m2


Total cost of carpeting bathroom and kitchen floors at the cost of Rs. 30/ m2


= 30 × (15 – x) × 5

In which tile, area of shaded portion will be more? (Take π = 3.14)



Answer:

(i) We know that area of a square = (side)2


and area of a circle = ∏r2


Area of quarter circle = × ∏r2 =


Area of the shaded portion of first tile = Area of square - 4 × Area of one quarter circle


= (20)2 - 4 ×


= 400 - 4 × 3.14 × × 10 × 10


= 400 - 314


= 86 cm2


(ii) In the second tile, diameter of the circle = Side of the tile = 20 cm


i.e. radius = 10 cm


Area of the shaded portion of second tile = Area of square - Area of circle


= (20)2 – 3.14 × 10 × 10


= 400 - 314


= 86 cm2


Shaded area in both the tiles is same.

Answer:

In ∆AEC, AE = 15 cm, AC = 25 cm


Applying Pythagoras theorem in ∆AEC,


(AE)2 + (EC)2 = (AC)2


(15)2 + (EC)2 = (25)2


(EC)2 = 625 - 225 = 400


EC =√400 = 20 cm


EB = EC – BC = 20 – 7 = 13 cm


Using the formula: Area of triangle = × b × h


Area of ΔAEC = × AE × EC = × 15 × 20 = 150 cm2


Area of ΔAEB = × AE × EB = × 15 × 13 = 97.5 cm2


Area of ΔABC = Area of ΔAEC - Area of ΔAEB


= 150 – 97.5 = 52.5 cm2


Also, area of ΔABC = × DB × AC


52.5 = × DB × 25


DB = = 4.2 cm


Hence, Area of ΔABC =52.5 cm2 and DB = 4.2 cm

Answer:

(i) Length of the inner rectangle (house, excluding path) = 4 + 2.5 + 4 =10.5 m


Breadth of the inner rectangle (house, excluding path) = 3 + 3 =6 m


Area of the inner rectangle = 10.5 × 6 = 63 m2


Length of the outer rectangle = Length of the inner rectangle + 2 × 1 =10.5 + 2 =12.5 m


Breadth of the outer rectangle = Breadth of the inner rectangle + 2 × 1 = 6 + 2 = 8 m


Area of the outer rectangle = 12.5 × 8 = 100 m2


Area of the path = Area of the outer rectangle – Area of the inner rectangle


= 100 – 63 = 37 m2


(ii) Area of the bathroom = 2.5 × 2 = 5 m2


Area of the floor to be covered = 63 – 5 = 58 m2



Cost of flooring = 120 × 58 = Rs. 6960

Question 126.

Architects design many types of buildings. They draw plans for houses, such as the plan shown in Fig. 9.68:



An architect wants to install a decorative moulding around the ceilings in all the rooms. The decorative moulding costs ₹ 500/metre.

A. Find how much moulding will be needed for each room.

(i) family room

(ii) living room

(iii) dining room

(iv) bedroom 1

(v) bedroom 2

B. The carpet costs ₹ 200/m2. Find the cost of carpeting each room.

C. What is the total cost of moulding for all the five rooms.


Answer:

A. (i) Length of family room = 5.48 m


Breadth of family room = 4.57 m


Perimeter of family room = 2 (l + b) = 2 (5.48 + 4.57) = 2 × 10.05 = 20.1 m2


Moulding required for family room = 20.1 m2


(ii) Length of living room = 7.53 m


Breadth of living room = 3.81 m


Perimeter of living room = 2 (l + b) = 2 (7.53 + 3.81) = 2 × 11.84 = 22.68 m2


Moulding required for living room = 22.68 m2


(iii) Length of dining room = 5.48 m


Breadth of dining room = 5.41 m


Perimeter of dining room = 2 (l + b) = 2 (5.48 + 5.41) = 2 × 10.89 = 21.78 m2


Moulding required for dining room = 20.1 m2


(iv) Side of bedroom 1 = 3.04 m


Perimeter of bedroom 1 = 4 × side = 4 × 3.04 = 12.16 m2


Moulding required for bedroom 1 = 12.16 m2


(v) Length of bedroom 2 = 3.04 m


Breadth of bedroom 1 = 2.43 m


Perimeter of dining room = 2 (l + b) = 2 (3.04 + 2.43) = 2 × 5.47 = 10.94 m2


Moulding required for dining room = 20.1 m2


B. Area of family room = 5.48 × 4.57 = 25.0436 m2


Cost of carpeting family room at the rate of Rs 200/m2 = 200 × 25.0436 =Rs. 5008.72


Area of living room = 7.53 × 3.81= 28.6893 m2


Cost of carpeting living room at the rate of Rs 200/m2 = 200 × 28.6893 =Rs. 5737.86


Area of dining room = 5.48 × 5.41= 29.6468 m2


Cost of carpeting dining room at the rate of Rs 200/m2 = 200 × 29.6468 =Rs. 5929.36


Area of bedroom1 = 3.04 × 3.04 = 9.2416 m2


Cost of carpeting bedroom1 at the rate of Rs 200/m2 = 200 × 9.2416 =Rs. 1848.32


Area of bedroom2 = 3.04 × 2.43 = 7.3872 m2


Cost of carpeting bedroom 2 at the rate of Rs 200/m2 = 200 × 7.3872 =Rs. 1477.44


C. Total perimeter of all five rooms = 20.1 + 22.68 + 21.78 + 12.16 + 10.94 = 87.66 m


Cost of moulding 1 m = Rs 500


Total cost of moulding all five rooms = 500 × 87.66 = Rs. 43,830



Question 127.

ABCD is a given rectangle with length as 80 cm and breadth as 60 cm. P, Q, R, S are the mid points of sides AB, BC, CD, DA respectively. A circular rangoli of radius 10 cm is drawn at the centre as shown in Fig. 9.69. Find the area of shaded portion.



Answer:

Given, P is the mid point of AB, so AP = 40 cm


And S is the mid point of AD, so AS = 30 cm


Area of ABCD = 80 × 60 = 4,800 cm2


Area of ∆SAP = × AP × AS = × 40 × 30 = 600 cm2


Area of 4 unshaded congruent triangles =4 × 600 cm2 = 2,400 cm2


Area of unshaded circle = ∏r2 = 3.14 × 10 × 10 = 314 cm2


∴ Area of shaded area = 4,800 – (2,400 + 314) = 2086 cm2



Question 128.

4 squares each of side 10 cm have been cut from each corner of a rectangular sheet of paper of size 100 cm × 80 cm. From the remaining piece of paper, an isosceles right triangle is removed whose equal sides are each of 10 cm length. Find the area of the remaining part of the paper.


Answer:

Total area of rectangular sheet = 100 × 80 = 8,000 cm2


Area of each square = (10)2 = 100 cm2


Area of triangle = × 10 × 10 = 50 cm2


Area of the remaining part of the paper = 8,000 – (100 + 150) = 7,550 cm2



Question 129.

A dinner plate is in the form of a circle. A circular region encloses a beautiful design as shown in Fig. 9.70. The inner circumference is 352 mm and outer is 396 mm. Find the width of circular design.



Answer:

Let the radius of inner and outer circle be r and R, respectively.


Given, inner circumference = 352 mm


⇒ 2∏r = 352


⇒ 2 × × r = 352


⇒ r = = 56 mm


and outer circumference = 396 mm


⇒ 2∏R = 396


⇒ 2 × × R = 396


⇒ r = = 63 mm


∴ Width of circular design = R – r = 63 -56 = 7 mm

Answer:

Length of path described by moon in one complete revolution


= 2∏r


= 2 × 3.14 × 3,84,000


= 2,411,520 km



Question 131.

A photograph of Billiard/Snooker table has dimensions as th of its actual size as shown in Fig. 9.71:



The portion excluding six holes each of diameter 0.5 cm needs to be polished at rate of Rs. 200 per m2. Find the cost of polishing.


Answer:

Since the photograph has dimensions as th of its actual size, hence


Actual length = 25 × 10 = 250 cm


Actual breadth = 10 × 10 = 100 cm


Actual area of the table = 250 × 100 = 25,000 cm2


Diameter of 1 hole = 0.5 × 10 = 5 cm


Radius of 1 hole = 2.5 cm


Area of 6 holes = 6 × ∏r2 = 6 × × 2.5 × 2.5 = 118 cm2


Area to be polished = Area of table – Area of 6 holes = 25,000 – 118 = 24,882 cm2 = 2.4882 m2


∴ Cost of polishing at the rate of Rs 200/ m2 = 2.4882 × 200 = Rs 497
