A triangle and a parallelogram are constructed on the same base such that their areas are equal. If the altitude of the parallelogram is 100 m , then the altitude of the triangle is.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let original length = x
and original width = y
Decrease in area will be
$$\begin{aligned} = xy-\left( \frac{80x}{100}\times\frac{90y}{100}\right) \\ = \left(xy- \frac{18}{25}xy\right) \\ = \frac{7}{25}xy \\ \text{Decrease = }\left(\frac{7xy}{25xy} \times100\right) \% \\ = 28\% \end{aligned}$$

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Question seems to be typical, but trust me it is too easy to solve, before solving this, lets analyse how we can solve this.
We are having speed and time so we can calculate the distance or perimeter in this question.
Then by applying the formula of perimeter of rectangle we can get value of length and breadth, So finally can get the area. Lets solve it:

Perimeter = Distance travelled in 8 minutes,
=> Perimeter = 12000/60 * 8 = 1600 meter. [because Distance = Speed * Time]

As per question length is 3x and width is 2x
We know perimeter of rectangle is 2(L+B)
So, 2(3x+2x) = 1600
=> x = 160
So Length = 160*3 = 480 meter
and Width = 160*2 = 320 meter

Finally, Area = length * breadth
= 480 * 320 = 153600

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

$$\begin{aligned} \text{Ratio of sides =}\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4} \\ =6:4:3\\ Perimeter = 52 cm \\ \text{So sides are =} \\ \left( 52*\frac{6}{13}\right)cm,\left( 52*\frac{4}{13}\right)cm, \left( 52*\frac{3}{13}\right)cm \end{aligned}$$
a = 24 cm, b = 16 cm and c = 12 cm
Length of the smallest side = 12 cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Let original length = x metres and original breadth = y metres.

$$\begin{aligned} \text{Original area } = \text{xy } m^2 \\ \text{New Length }= \frac{120}{100}x = \frac{6}{5}x \\ \text{New Breadth }= \frac{120}{100}y = \frac{6}{5}y \\ =>\text{New Area }= \frac{6}{5}x * \frac{6}{5}y \\ =>\text{New Area }= \frac{36}{25}xy \\ \text{Area Difference} = \frac{36}{25}xy - xy \\ = \frac{11}{25}xy \\ Increase \% = \frac{Differnce}{Actual}*100 \\ = \frac{11xy}{25}*\frac{1}{xy}*100 = 44\% \end{aligned}$$

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Clearly first we need to find the areas of the given squares, for that we need its side.

Side of sqaure = Perimeter/4

So sides are,

$$\begin{aligned} \left(\frac{24}{4}\right),\left(\frac{32}{4}\right),\left(\frac{40}{4}\right),\left(\frac{76}{4}\right),\left(\frac{80}{4}\right) \\ = 6,8,10,19,20 \\ \text{Area of new square will be }\\ = [6^2+8^2+10^2+19^2+20^2] \\ = 36+64+100+361+400 \\ = 961 cm^2 \\ \text{Side of new Sqaure =}\sqrt{961} \\ = 31 cm \\ \text{Required perimeter =}(4\times31) \\ = 124 cm \end{aligned}$$
