Correct Answer: 38
Explanation:
Perimeter = 2 x (36 + 21 ) m = 144 m
? Number of flagstaffs = 144 / 3 = 38
Correct Answer: 54 m
Explanation:
Let breadth = y meters,
Then, length = 2y meters
? Diagonal = ?y2 + (2y)2
= ?5y2 meters
So, ?5y2 = 9 ?5
? y= 9
Thus, breadth = 9 m and length = 18 m
? Perimeter = 2 (18 + 9) m = 54m.
Correct Answer: 2000
Explanation:
Length = (40 x 10 ) dm = 400 dm.
Breadth = (15 x 10 ) dm = 150 dm.
Area of veranda = (400 x 150 ) dm2
Area of one stone = (6 x 5 ) dm2
? Required number of stones = (400 x 150) /(6 x 5) = 2000
Correct Answer: None of these
Explanation:
Let each side = x cm
Then, (x + 4 )2 - x2 = 60
? x 2 + 8x + 16 - x2 = 60
? x = 5.5 cm
Correct Answer: 56.25
Explanation:
Let area 100 m2
Then, 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 %
Correct Answer: 40 cm
Explanation:
Let breadth = b, length = 2b
? Area of rectangle = 2b x b
= 2b2
As per question.
? (2b - 5 ) (b + 5 ) = 2b2 + 75
? 5b = 75 + 25
? 5b = 100
? b = 100 / 5 = 20
Hence, length of the rectangle =2b
= 2 x 20
= 40 cm.
Correct Answer: 12.8 metres
Explanation:
Length of the longest pole = ? [(10)2 + (8)2] m
= ? 164 m
= 12.8 m
Correct Answer: 4:1
Explanation:
Let the diagonal of one square be (2d) cm
Then, diagonal of another square = d cm
? Area of first square = [ 1/2 x (2d)2] cm2
Area of second square = (1/2 x d2) cm2
? Ratio of area = (2d)2/ d2
= 4/1 = 4: 1
Correct Answer: 300%
Explanation:
Original area = ?(d/2)2
= (?d2) / 4
New area = ?(2d/2)2
= ?d2
Increase in area = (?d2 - ?d2/4)
= 3?d2/4
? Required increase percent
= [(3?d2)/4 x 4/(?d2) x 100]%
= 300%
Correct Answer: 4 :3
Explanation:
Ratio of area = a2/ ?(3/4) a2
= 4/?3 = 4:?3
