Let Us Do 15.3
Question 1.

Look at the figures below and let us write by calculating the area.



Answer:

(i) Given triangle is a right angle triangle whose area would be


Area of triangle


In a right angled triangle, according to the Pythagoras theorem


Hypothenuse2 = Base2 + height2 ………. eq 1


In the given triangle base = 5cm


Hypotenuse = 13cm


Height = ?


By eq 1 we have


⇒ 132 = 52 + height2


⇒ 169 - 25 = height2


⇒ height = √144 cm


⇒ height = 12cm


Area of the given triangle


= 30cm2


(ii) Given triangle has all the sides equal as 6 cm so it`s a equilateral triangle


Area of a equilateral triangle


Here side = 6cm


So area of triangle



= 9√3 cm2


(iii) Two sides of the given triangle are equal = 6cm and base = 8 cm


So it’s an isosceles triangle


Area of an isosceles triangle


(∵ half of base = 4cm)


=


= 4× √20


= 8 √5 cm2


(iv) Given figure is a trapezium with one angle ∠ ABC = 90°



In right triangle ABC


CB = 5cm, is the base


AB = 12 cm, is the height of the triangle


AC is the hypothenuse which will be given by Pythagoros theorem


Hypothenuse2 = Base2 + height2 ………………….eq1


In the given figure


AC2 = CB2 + AB2


⇒ AC2 = 52 + 122


⇒ AC2 = 25 + 144


⇒ AC = √169


⇒ AC = 13cm


Area of right - angled triangle ABC




= 30cm2


Now in triangle ACD


AC = 13cm


DC = 10cm given


AD = 7 cm given


Area of triangle with given three sides


Where a, b, and c are the sides of the triangle


and s (semi perimeter of triangle )




⇒ s = 15 cm


Area of ADC triangle


=


=


= 30√2 cm2


Area of given figure = area of triangle ABC + area of triangle ACD


Area of given figure = 30cm2 + 30√2 cm2


= 60√2 cm2



Question 2.

In a lake of Botanical Garden the tip of lotus was seen 2 cm. above the surface of water. Being forced by the wind, it gradually advanced and submerged at a distance of 15 cm. from the previous position. Let us write by calculating the depth of water.


Answer:


Let the depth of the water be BD = x cm


According to the given condition


AD = CD = (x + 2) cm because the straight lotus submerged into lake covering distance BC = 15cm


Now in right angled triangle DBC


CD = x + 2, is hypotenuse


BC = 15, is base and


BD = x, is the height which is also the depth of water


According to the Pythagoras theorem


Hypothenuse2 = Base2 + height2


CD2 = BD2 + BC2


(x + 2)2 = x2 + 152


⇒ x2 + 4 + 4x = x2 + 225 (∵ (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab)


⇒ 4x = 221



⇒ x = 55.25 cm


The depth of water = 55.25cm



Question 3.

The length of hypotenuse of an isosceles right - angled triangle is 12√2 cm. Let us write by calculating what will be the area of that field.


Answer:

Given


In an isosceles right angled triangle


Hypotenuse = 12√2 cm


Since it is the isosceles triangle


⇒ the length of the remaining two sides would be same


Let the length of remaining two sides be x cm


According to the Pythagoras theorem,


Hypothenuse2 = Base2 + height2


⇒ (12√2)2 = x2 + x2


⇒ 144 × 2 = 2x2



⇒ 144 = x2


⇒ x = ± 12 cm


Since length cannot be negative


⇒ Length (x) of remaining two sides = 12cm


Area of an isosceles triangle



= 72cm2



Question 4.

The lengths of three sides of our triangular park are 65 m, 70 m and 75 m. Let us write by calculating the length of perpendicular drawn from opposite vertex on the longest side.


Answer:

Given,


In a triangular park length of three sides are AB = 65 m, AC = 70 m and BC = 75 m and AD = x m, is the height of the perpendicular drawn to BC


AD is the perpendicular drawn on the longest side BC


Since all the three sides are different of the triangular park it forms a scalene triangle




Area of a scalene triangle with given three sides


Where a, b, and c are the sides of the triangle


and s (semi perimeter of triangle )


Here,



⇒ s = 105 m


Area of triangular park m2


m2


= m2


= 2100 m2


But, Area of triangle


So area of triangle ABC




⇒ x = 56 m


Therefore, height of the perpendicular drawn from the vertex opposite to longest side is 56m



Question 5.

The ratio of height of the two triangles which are drawn by Suja and I is 3 : 4 and the ratio of their area is 4 : 3. Let us write by calculating what will be the ratio of two bases.


Answer:

Area of a triangle


Given there are two triangles


And ratio of their area


Also ratio of their height


Where, b1is the base and h1is the height and A1is the area of suja`s triangle


And b2is the base and h2is the height and A2is the area of my triangle


Ratio of area of triangle






The ratio of the bases of two triangles is 16:9




Let Us Do The Sum 15.1
Question 1.

See the house of Kamal and let us find the answer.



(i) Let us write by calculating the area of Kamal’s garden.

(ii) Let us write by calculating how much cost is required to repair the floor of Kamal’s verandah, if Rs. 30 is the cost per square meter.

(iii) kamal wants to cover the floors of his reading room with tiles. Let us write by calculating how many tiles will be required to cover his floor of reading room with size of tiles 25 cm × 25 cm.


Answer:

From the figure, we see that the garden measures 20m x 20m


Area = L × B = 20m × 20m = 400m2


(ii) Varandah measures 10m x 5m.


Total Area of Varandah = L × B = 10m × 5m = 50m2


Cost per square meter = Rs. 30


If 1 m2 costs Rs. 30


50m2 costs Rs. 50 × 30 = Rs. 1500


(iii) Length of the reading room = 5m


Breadth of the reading room = 6m


As,


Area of rectangle = length × breadth


Area of floor of his room = 5 × 6 = 30 m2


Area of one tile = length × breadth


= 25 cm × 25 cm


= 0.25 m × 0.25m


= 0.0625 m2


No of tiles required



Question 2.

Let us see the following pictures and calculate the area of its coloured part.



Answer:

We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


(i) Area of colored region(green) = area of outer rectangle – area of inner rectangle


Now, dimensions of outer rectangle = 12 × 8


⇒ area of outer rectangle = 96 m2


Width of each strip = 4 m


Therefore, dimension of inner rectangle = (12 – 3) × (8 – 3)


⇒ area of inner rectangle = 45 m2


⇒ area of colored region = 96 – 45 = 51 m2


(ii) Area of colored region = area of whole rectangle – area of 4 small rectangles


Now, dimensions of whole rectangle = 26 × 14


⇒ area of outer rectangle = 364 m2


Width of each strip = 3 m


Let length of rectangle be ‘l’ and width be ‘b’


Now,


Length of 2 small rectangles + width of strip = 26 m


⇒ 2l + 3 = 26



breadth of 2 small rectangles + width of strip = 14 m


⇒ 2b + 3 = 14



⇒ area of one small rectangle = lb


⇒ area of four small rectangles = 231 m2


⇒ area of colored region = 364 – 231 = 133 m2


(iii) Area of colored region(violet) = area of outer rectangle – area of inner rectangle


Now, dimensions of inner rectangle = 16 × 9


⇒ area of outer rectangle = 144 m2


Width of each strip = 4 m


Therefore, dimension of outer rectangle = (16 + 2(4)) × (9 + 2(4)) = 24 × 17


⇒ area of inner rectangle = 408 m2


⇒ area of colored region = 408 – 144 = 264 m2


(iv) Area of colored region(orange) = area of outer rectangle – area of inner rectangle


Now, dimensions of outer rectangle = 28 × 20


⇒ area of outer rectangle = 560 m2


Width of each strip = 3 m


Therefore, dimension of outer rectangle = (28 - 2(3)) × (20 - 2(3)) = 22 × 14


⇒ area of inner rectangle = 308 m2


⇒ area of colored region = 560 – 308 = 252 m2


(v)


Area of colored region = area of strip I + 4 × area of strip II


Now, dimension of strip I = 3 cm × 120 cm


Hence, area of strip I = 360 cm2


Now, width of strip II = 3 cm


Also, 2 × length of strip II + width of strip I = 90 cm


⇒ 2 × length of strip II + 3 = 90


⇒ length of strip II = 43.5 cm


Hence, area of II strip = 43.5 × 3 = 130.5 cm2


Hence, area of required region = 360 + 4(130.5) = 882 cm2



Question 3.

The length and breadth of rectangular field of Birati Mahajati Sangha are in the ratio 4 : 3. The path of 336 meter is covered by walking once round the field. Let us write by calculating the area of the field.


Answer:

Perimeter = 336m

Let length of the field be L, and breadth be B.


Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B) = 336


Or L + B = 168


Given


3L = 4B


Or L =


Substituting the above result in L + B = 168,



On solving, we get B = 72


And since 3L = 4B, L = 96


Area = L × B = 96 × 72 = 6912m2



Question 4.

The cost of farming a square land of Samar at the rate of Rs. 3.50 per sq. meter is Rs. 1,400. Let us calculate how much cost will be for fencing around its four sides with same height of Samar’s land at the rate of Rs. 8.50 per meter.


Answer:

1 m2 - - - Rs. 3.50

Area - - - - - Rs. 1400


So area = = 400m2


Let the side of square land be L.


Since it is a square land, Area = L2


Or L = = 20m


Perimeter of a square = 4L = 4 × 20 = 80m


1m - - - Rs. 8.5


80m - - - - - Rs. 80 × 8.5 = Rs. 680



Question 5.

The area of rectangular land of suhas’s is 500 sq. meter. If length of land is decreased by 3 meter and breadth is increased by 2 meter, then the land formed a square. Let us write by calculating the length and breadth of land of Suhas’s.


Answer:

Let original length be L and original breadth be B.

L × B = 500.


Since length decreased by 3m and Breadth increased by 2m gives rise to a square,


L - 3 = B + 2 (Because in a square, L = B)


Or L = B + 5


(B + 5) × B = 500


B2 + 5B - 500 = 0


On solving the quadratic equation, we have B = 20 or B = - 25


Since the measurement cannot be negative,


B = 20


So L = B + 5 = 25



Question 6.

Each side of a square land of our village is 300 meter. We shall fence that square land by 3dcm. wide wall with same height around its four sides. Let us see that how much will it cost for the wall at the rate of Rs. 5, 000 per 100 sq. meter.


Answer:


Area of wall = Area of outer square – Area of inner square


Length of outer square = 300 + 0.3m (3dcm = 0.3m)


= 300.3m


We know, area of square = (side)2


Area of outer square = 300.32 = 90180.09m2


Area of inner square = 3002 = 90000m2


Area of wall = 90180.09 – 90000 = 180.09m2


Rate per square metre of wall = = Rs. 50/sq m


So for 1 m2 - - - - Rs. 50


180.09m2 - - - Rs. 50 × 180.09 = Rs. 9004.5



Question 7.

The length and breadth of rectangular garden of Rehana are 14 meter and 12 meter. If the cost of constructing an equally wide path inside around the garden is Rs. 1,380 at the rate of Rs. 20 per sq. meter, then let us write by calculating how much wide is the path.


Answer:

We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


Area of outer rectangle = 14m × 12m = 168m2


Let the width of path be ‘x’ m.



Dimensions of inner rectangle will be (14 – 2x) × (12 – 2x)


And area of inner rectangular ground = (14 – 2x)(12 – 2x)


Now, area of path = area of whole garden – area of garden without path


Area of path


⇒ 69 = 168 – (14 – 2x)(12 – 2x)


⇒ 69 = 168 – 168 + 28x + 24x – 4x2


⇒ 4x2 – 52x + 69 = 0


⇒ 4x2 - 46x – 6x + 69 = 0


⇒ 2x(2x – 23) – 3(2x – 23) = 0


⇒ (2x – 3)(2x – 23) = 0


⇒ 2x – 3 = 0 or 2x – 23 = 0


⇒ x = 1.5 m or x = 11.5 m


Now, logically 11.5 m is not possible, because in that case the length of inner rectangular ground will be negative,


Hence, width of path = x = 1.5 m



Question 8.

If the length of rectangular garden with area 1200 sq. cm. is 40 cm. then let us write by calculating the area of square field which is drawn on its diagonal.


Answer:

Let the length of rectangular garden be L and breadth be B


We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


Given, L = 40cm, A = 1200cm2


A = L × B


⇒ 1200 = 40 × B


⇒ B = 30cm


We know, diagonal of a rectangle


Where, L = length of rectangle and B = breadth of rectangle

Question 9.

The length, breadth and height of a hall are 4 meter, 6 meter and 4 meter. There are three doors and four windows in the room. The measurement of each door is 1.5 meter × 1 meter and each window is 1.2 meter × 1 meter. How much it will cost for covering four walls by coloured paper at the rate of Rs. 70 per square meter.


Answer:

We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


Area of square = (side)2 = side × side


There are 4 walls, 1 floor, 3 doors and 4 windows in the hall.


Area of Wall 1 = 4m × 4m = 16m2


Area of Wall 2 = 6m × 4m = 24m2


Area of Wall 3 = 4m × 4m = 16m2


Area of Wall 4 = 6m × 4m = 24m2


Area of Floor = 4m × 6m = 24m2


Area of each door = 1.5m × 1m = 1.5m2


Total area for 3 doors = 4.5m2


Area of each windows = 1.2m × 1m = 1.2m2


Total area for 4 windows = 4.8m2


Net area = Area of floor + Area of walls – Area of doors – Area of windows


= 24 + 16 + 24 + 16 + 24 - 4.5 - 4.8 = 94.7m2


Total cost at the rate of Rs. 70 per sq m


= Rs. 94.7 × 70 = Rs. 6629



Question 10.

The area of four walls of a room is 42 sq. meter and area of floor is 12 sq. meter. Let us write by calculating the height of room if the length of room is 4 meter.


Answer:

Let length of the room be L = 4m

Let breadth of the room be B = ?


We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


Area of floor = L × B = 12m2 = 4 × B


So B = 3m


Let the height of room is H.


Area of four walls = 2(L × H) + 2(B × H) = 48m2


So (L × H) + (B × H) = 24m2


Substituting L and B,


3H + 4H = 24m2


7H = 24


Or H = 3.24m



Question 11.

Sujata will draw a rectangular picture on a paper with area 84 sq. cm. The difference of length and breadth of paper is 5 cm. Let us calculate the perimeter of paper of Sujata.


Answer:

Let length be L, breadth be B.


We know, area of rectangle = length × breadth


Given, Area of rectangular picture = 84 cm2


⇒ L × B = 84cm2


Also, Given the difference of length and breadth is 5 cm.


⇒ L - B = 5cm


Or L = B + 5


Substituting, (B + 5) × B = 84


B2 + 5B - 84 = 0


B2 + 12B - 7B - 84 = 0


B(B + 12) - 7(B + 12) = 0


(B - 7)(B + 12) = 0


B cannot be negative, so B = 7cm.


L = 12cm


Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)


= 2(12 + 5) = 34cm



Question 12.

There is a 2.5 meter wide path around the rectangular garden of Shiraj’s. The area of path is 165 sq. meter. Let us calculate the area of garden and the length of diagonal.


Answer:

Let L and B be the total length and total breadth of the rectangle covering the path and the garden respectively.


Length of the garden


= L - 2 × width of path


= L – 2(2.5) = (L – 5)


Breadth of the garden


= B - 2 × width of path


= B – 5


We know, area of square = length × breadth


Area of the garden = (L - 5)(B - 5)


Total Area = L × B


Area of path = Total Area – Area of garden = 165


LB - (L - 5)(B - 5) = 165


⇒ LB – LB + 5L + 5B - 25


⇒ 5B + 5L - 25 = 165


⇒ 5(L + B) = 190


⇒ L + B = 38m


Let L = 20m


B = 18m


Area of the garden = (20 - 5)(18 - 5) = 195m2


We know, diagonal of a rectangle


Where, L = length of rectangle and B = breadth of rectangle


Length of the Diagonal = = 27m



Question 13.

Let us write by calculating that how much length of wall in meter is required for walling outside round the square field, whereas the length of diagonal of the square land is 20√2 meter. Let us write by calculating how much cost will be for planting grass at the rate of Rs. 20 per sq. meter.


Answer:

We know, that the length of diagonal of square = L√2 units, where L is the side of square


Diagonal of the square = 20√2m


On comparing,


side of the square land = 20m


Also, we know


Area of square = (side)2


Area of the square land = 202 = 400m2


Cost for 1 m2 to plant grass = Rs. 20


Cost for 400m2 to plant grass = Rs. 20 × 400 = Rs. 8000



Question 14.

We shall fence our rectangular garden diagonally. The length and breadth of rectangular garden are 12 meter and 7 meter. Let us calculate the length of fence.


Answer:

We know, diagonal of a rectangle


Where, L = length of rectangle and B = breadth of rectangle


L = 12m, B = 7m


Diagonal = = 13m


Since there are two diagonals, the length of fence is 13 × 2 = 26m



Question 15.

A big hall of house of Mousumi is in the form of rectangle of which length and breadth are in the ration 9 : 5 and perimeter is 140 meter. Mousumi wants to cover the floor of her hall with rectangular tiles of dimension 25 cm. × 20 cm. The rate of each 100 tiles is Rs. 500. Let us calculate the cost for covering the floor with tiles is.


Answer:


Or 5L = 9B


Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(L + B) = 140m


We know that L = B


B + B = 70


B = 70


B = 25m


L = 45m


Area of rectangle = 25m × 45m = 1125m2


Area of each tile = 25cm × 20cm = 0.25m × 0.2m = 0.05m2


Number of tiles required = = 22500


Rate for 100 tiles = Rs. 500


Rate for 1 tile = Rs. 5


Rate for 22500 tiles = Rs. 22500 × 5 = Rs. 1,12,500



Question 16.

The cost of carpeting a big hall of length 18 meters is Rs. 2160. If the breadth of the floor would be 4 meter less, then the cost would have been Rs. 1,620. Let us calculate perimeter and area of the hall.


Answer:

Let original length be L and breadth be B.


L = 18m. B = ?


Area = L × B = 18B


New length = 18m, new breadth = B - 4 m


New Area = 18(B - 4)


Let the rate be X per sqm.


Now, 18B × X = 2160


18(B - 4) × X = 1620


Dividing two equations,



1620B = 2160(B - 4)


B = 16m


Perimeter = 2(L + B) = 68m


Area = L × B = 16 × 18m2 = 288m2



Question 17.

The length of diagonal of a rectangular land is 15 meter and the difference of length and breadth is 3 meter. Let us calculate perimeter and area.


Answer:

Diagonal = 15m, Length - Breadth = 3m

From Pythagorean theorem,


Length2 + Breadth2 = Diagonal2


As, Length = Breadth + 3


Let Length = B + 3, Breadth = B and Diagonal = 15 m


(B + 3)2 + B2 = 152


2B2 + 6B - 216 = 0


Or, B2 + 3B - 108 = 0


B2 + 12B - 9B - 108 = 0


B(B + 12) - 9(B + 12) = 0


Breadth cannot be negative, so B = 9m


Length = 12m


Perimeter = 2(L + B) = 42m


Area = L × B = 108m2



Question 18.

Let us calculate what is the longest size of the square tile that can be used for paving the rectangular courtyard with measurement of 385 meter × 60 meter and also find the number to tiles.


Answer:

Let the side of each tile is ‘a’, Let number of tiles required be N.

We know area of rectangle = length × breadth


Area of courtyard = 385 × 60 = 22100 m2


Now, we have to calculate the longest size of square tile that can be used for paving the courtyard,


As, 22100 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × 17 × 13


Clearly, we have to make 17 and 13 eliminate to make it perfect square, therefore we take square tiles of (2 × 5 = 10 cm) side.


And no of tiles

⇒ a = 12 cm


We know,


Area of square = a2


= 122 = 144sqcm.


Question 20.

A. 1 : 2

B. 2 : 1

C. 1 : 4

D. 4 : 1


Answer:

Let the side of square A1 be ‘L’


We know,


Area of square = (side)2


A1 Area = L2


Also, we know Diagonal of square = L√2


Area of square drawn on diagonal A2 = (a√2)


= 2L2


Ratio of A1:A2 is L2:2L2 = 1:2


Question 21.

If a rectangular place of which length and breadth are 6 meter and 4 meter is desired to pave it with 2 cm. square tiles, then the numbers of tiles is to be required.

C. 600

D. 1800


Answer:

We know,


Area of rectangle = Length × breadth


Area of the place = 6m × 4m = 24sqm = 2400sqcm


Also,


Area of square = (side)2


Area of each tile = (2cm)2 = 4sqcm


Number of tiles = = 600


Question 22.

If a square and a rectangle having the same perimeter and their areas are S and R respectively then
A. S = R

B. S > R

C. S < R


Answer:

Let the rectangle have dimensions L and B

We know,


Perimeter = 2(L + B), Area = L × B


⇒ R = LB


Let the square have side as ‘a’


We know,


Perimeter = 4a, Area = a2


Given,


Perimeter of square = Perimeter of rectangle


⇒ 2(L + B) = 4a


⇒ L + B = 2a



Now, Area of square





Adding and subtracting from RHS




Since, , [Being a square]


⇒ S > R


Question 23.

If the length of diagonal of a rectangle is 10 cm. and area is 62.5 sq. cm., then the sum of their length and breadth is
A. 12 cm

B. 15 cm.

C. 20 cm

D. 25 cm


Answer:

Let sides of rectangle be L and B.

We know, Diagonal =


Or Diagonal2 = L2 + B2


⇒ 102 = L2 + B2


⇒ 100 sq. cm = L2 + B2


This can be rewritten as


100 = (L + B)2 – 2LB


Area of rectangle = L × B = 62.5 sqcm


Hence,


100 = (L + B)2 - 2 × 62.5


⇒ (L + B)2 = 100 + 125


Or L + B = = 15cm


Question 24.

If the length of square is increased by 10%, then what percent of the area of square will be increased?


Answer:

Let original Length be L.

10% increase is 0.1L


New Length = L + 0.1L = 1.1L.


Change in area = (1.1L)2 –L2 = 0.21L2


%change in area =


= 21%



Question 25.

If the length is increased by 10% and breadth is decreased by 10% of a rectangle, then what percent of area will be increased or decreased?


Answer:

Let original length and breadth be L and B respectively.

Original Area = L × B


10% increase in length corresponds to 0.1L.


10% decrease in length corresponds to 0.1B.


New length = 1.1L


New breadth = 0.9B


New area = (1.1L)(0.9B) = 0.99LB


%change in area =


= = - 1%


So 1% area will be decreased.



Question 26.

The length of rectangle is 5 cm. The length of perpendicular on a breadth of rectangle from intersecting point between two diagonals is 2 cm. What is the length of breadth.


Answer:


We see that it is not possible for the perpendicular to be of 2cm when the length of the rectangle is 5cm. (It should be 2.5cm)


No solution exists.



Question 27.

If the length of perpendicular from the intersecting point between two diagonals on any side of square is 2√2 cm, then what is the length of each diagonal of square?


Answer:

Let us consider a square ABCD with diagonals intersecting at ‘O’.


OP is perpendicular to any of its sides such that


OP = 2√2 cm



Let the side of square be ‘L’


Then diagonal of square, BD = L√2


Also,


Diagonals of square bisect each other, therefore




Also, By symmetry



Now, In ΔOPD, By Pythagoras theorem


Hypotenuse2 = Perpendicular2 + Base2


⇒ OD2 = OP2 + DP2






⇒ L2 = 32


⇒ L2 = 4√2 cm



Question 28.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 cm. and area is 60 sq. cm. What is the length of each diagonal?


Answer:

Perimeter = 2(L + B) = 34cm


Area = LB = 60sqcm


So L + B = 34, squaring on both sides


(L + B)2 = 1156


L2 + B2 + 2LB = 1156


LB = 60


L2 + B2 + 120 = 1156


Or L2 + B2 = 1036


We know that Diagonal2 = L2 + B2


So D2 = 1036


D = 32.18cm

⇒ DC = AB = 38


∠ ADC = 90° (given)


AC = 42cm


In Δ ADC


AC= 42


DC = 38


∠ ADC = 90


By using the Pythagoras theorem


AC2 = AD2 +DC2


⇒ 422 = AD2 + 382


⇒ 1764 – 1444 = AD2


⇒ AD = √320

The area of an equilateral triangle and area of square are in the ration √3 : 2. If the length of diagonal of square is 60 cm. let us write by calculating perimeter of that triangle.


Answer:

Area of equilateral triangle = ,


Where, x is the equal side of triangle


Area of square = side × side


Let side of square here be x cm


In a square the diagonal is hypotenuse


Diagonal = hypotenuse = √ 2 a


According to the given condition


60 = √ 2a



⇒ a = 30√2


⇒ Area of square = (30√2 )2 = 3600 ………….eq1


Given



From eq 1



⇒ Area of equilateral triangle = 1800√ 3cm


But Area of equilateral triangle =


⇒ 1800√ 3 =



⇒ 84.85 = x cm


Perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3x


= 3 × 84.85


= 254.56 cm



Question 18.

Length of hypotenuse and perimeter of a right-angle triangle are 13 cm and 30 cm. Let us write by calculating the area of triangle.


Answer:


Let the base, perpendicular and Hypotenuse of right-angled triangle be b, p and h respectively.


We know, Perimeter of right-angled triangle = b + p + h


Given, perimeter = 30 cm


⇒ b + p + h = 30


⇒ b + p + 13 = 30 [∵ h, hypotenuse = 13 cm]


⇒ b = 17 – p [1]


Also, we know By Pythagoras theorem in right-angled triangle


(Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (Perpendicular)2


⇒ h2 = p2 + b2


⇒ (13)2 = p2 + (17 – p)2


⇒ 169 = p2 + p2 + 289 – 34p


⇒ 2p2 – 34p + 120 = 0


⇒ p2 – 17p + 60 = 0


⇒ p2 – 12p - 5p + 60 = 0


⇒ (p – 12)(p - 5) = 0


⇒ p = 12 cm or p = 5 cm


Case I: p = 12 cm


⇒ b = 17 – 12 = 5 cm


and we know, area of triangle



Case II: p = 5 cm


⇒ b = 17 – 5 = 12 cm


and we know, area of triangle



Therefore, Area of triangle is 30 cm2.



Question 19.

The lengths of the sides containing the right angle are 12 cm and 5 cm. Let us write by calculating the length of perpendicular drawn from vertex of right angle on hypotenuse.


Answer:

Length of base = 5cm


According to the Pythagoras theorem



⇒ AC2 + CB 2 = AB2


⇒ 122 + 52 = AB2


⇒ 144 + 25 = AB2


⇒ AB = √ 169


⇒ AB = 13 cm


Now, Area of triangle ABC = ……. Eq 1


⇒ Area of right Triangle ABC =


⇒ Area of right-angle triangle = 30 cm2


Now according to given condition CD is perpendicular to AB


⇒ Area of triangle ABC = AB × h (from eq 1)




⇒ h = 4.62cm



Question 20.

The largested square is cut-out from a right-angled triangular region with length of 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm respectively in such a way that the one vertex of square lies on hypotenuse of triangle. Let us write by calculating the length of side of square.


Answer:

Given, sides of the right angled triangle are 3 cm, 4cm and 5 cm



Let BFDE is the largest square that can be inscribed in the right triangle ABC right angled at B


Also let BF = x cm so AF = 4-x cm


In Δ ABC and Δ AFD


∠ A= ∠ A common


∠ AFD = ∠ ABC (each 90°)


Δ ABC ∼ Δ AFD (by AA similarity)

Answer:

Given, The length of a rhombus is equal to length of a square and the length of diagonal of square is 10√2 cm and the length of diagonals of a rhombus are in the ratio 3 : 4

The diagonal of a square = a


10 = a


a = 10cm


i.e. the side of the square = 10 cm


according to given question side of the rhombus is equal to the side of the square


∴ side of the rhombus = 10 cm


The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other. Let the diagonals are 3x and 4x.


Hence, 102 = (3x)2 + (4x)2


⟹ 102 = 25x2


⟹ X2 = 4


⟹ X = 2

According to the figure two right angled triangles are formed.


In ∆AEC,


⟹ AC2=AE2+CE2 -------(i)


⟹ CE = FD


And 17 = CE +FD +EF


⟹ 17 = 2CE + 5


⟹ 2CE = 12


⟹ CE = 6cm


∴ 102 = AE2 + 62


⟹ AE2= 100 – 36


⟹ AE2= 64


⟹ AE = 8cm


Hence, area of the trapezium =×(5+17)×8

In ∆BFD,


⟹ BD2=BF2+FD2 -------(ii)


From eq(i),


⟹ 62 = AE2 +CE2⟹ AE2=36−CE2


From eq(ii),


⟹ 82= AE2 + FD2 { AE = BF }


⟹ AE2=64−FD2


From figure, 19 = CE+EF+FD


⟹ CE + FD = 19−EF


⟹ CE + FD = 19−9


⟹ CE + FD = 10 ----(iii)


⟹ 36−CE2=64−FD2


⟹ 36−(10−FD)2=64−FD2


⟹ 36−100−FD2+20FD = 64−FD2


⟹ 20FD = 128


⟹ FD = 6.4cm and then CE = 10 – FD


CE = 10 – 6.4


CE = 3.6


⟹ AE2 = 36−CE2


⟹ AE2 = 36−3.62


⟹ AE2 = 36−12.96


⟹ AE = 4.8cm


Area of trapezium = ×(9+19)×4.8


= 67.2 sq. cm

In parallelogram ABCD, AB = 4 cm., BC = 6 cm. and ∠ABC = 30°, find the area of field in the shape of parallelogram ABCD.


Answer:

Consider a parallelogram ABCD, such that AB = 4 cm, BC = 6 cm and ∠ABC = 30°, Draw AE ⊥ BC



We know, area of parallelogram = Base × Height


⇒ area(ABCD) = AE × BC


In ΔAEB


We know,





⇒ AE = 2 cm


Hence, area of ABCD = 2 × 6 = 12 cm2
