Correct Answer: 5%
Explanation:
According to the formula,
Percentage increase in diagonals = 5%
Correct Answer: (4 x 103) sq m
Explanation:
Required area = Length x Breadth
= 100 x 40 = 4000 sq m
= 4 x 103 sq m
Correct Answer: 120 sq m
Explanation:
Required area = Length x Breadth
= 15 x 8 = 120 sq m
Correct Answer: 16.76 cm2
Explanation:
Area of parallelogram = Base x Height
= 8.06 x 2.08 = 16.76 cm2
Correct Answer: 1 cm
Explanation:
Given that, area = 10 sq cm,
perpendicular = 20 cm and base = ?
area = (base x Perpendicular) / 2
? 10 = (base x 20) / 2
? base = 1 cm
Correct Answer: 6 cm
Explanation:
Radius = Diameter/2
? Diameter = 2 x Radius
= 2 x 3
= 6 cm
Correct Answer: 625 ? sq m
Explanation:
Required area = ?r2 = ? x 25 x 25
= 625? sq m.
Correct Answer: 50 m
Explanation:
Let Length = 5y meters and breadth = 3y meters.
Then, perimeter = 2 x (5y + 3y ) m = 16y meters ...(i)
But perimeter = Total Cost / Rate = 3000 / 7.50 m = 400 m ...(ii)
from eqs. (i) and (ii)
16y = 400
? y = 25
? Length - Breadth = (5 x 25 - 3 x 25 ) m
= 2 x 25 m
= 50 m
Correct Answer: 12 m2
Explanation:
Other side = ?5 2 - 42
= ? 9
=3 m
So The area of the rectangular field = 4 x 3
= 12 m2
Correct Answer: 91/11 %
Explanation:
Let base = b and altitude = h
Then, Area = b x h
But New base = 110b / 100 = 11b / 10
Let New altitude = H
Then,
Decrese = (h - 10h /11 )
= h / 11
? Required decrease per cent
= (h/11) x (1 / h ) x 100 %
= 91/11 %
