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.
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
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.
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

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.
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
Let us see the following pictures and calculate the area of its coloured part.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
Diagonal of rectangle = side of square
Also, we know area of square = (side)2
= (50)2 = 2500 cm2
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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

If the length of the diagonal of the square is 12√2cm, then,
a√2 = 12√2
⇒ a = 12 cm
We know,
Area of square = a2
= 122 = 144sqcm.
If the area of square is A1 sq. units and the area of square drawn on the diagonal of that square is A2 sq. unit, then the ratio of A1 : A2 is
A. 1 : 2
B. 2 : 1

D. 4 : 1
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

Also,
Area of square = (side)2
Area of each tile = (2cm)2 = 4sqcm
Number of tiles = = 600
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
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

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
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
If the length of square is increased by 10%, then what percent of the area of square will be increased?
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%
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?
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.
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.
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.
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?
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
The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 cm. and area is 60 sq. cm. What is the length of each diagonal?
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
