Find the circumference of a circle, whose area is 24.64 meter sqaure
- 17.90m
- 17.80m
- 17.60m
- 17.40m
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of Square =} \pi*r^2\\
=> \pi*r^2 = 24.64 \\
=> r^2 = \frac{24.64}{22}*7 \\
=> r^2 = 7.84 \\
=> r = \sqrt{7.84} \\
=> r = 2.8 \\
\text{Circumference =}2\pi*r\\
= 2*\frac{22}{7}*2.8 \\
= 17.60m
\end{aligned}
1. The ratio between the length and the breadth of a rectangular park is 3 : 2. If a man cycling along the boundary of the park at the speed of 12 km/hr completes one round in 8 minutes, then the area of the park (in sq. m) is:
- \begin{aligned} 152600 m^2\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 153500 m^2\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 153600 m^2\end{aligned}
- \begin{aligned} 153800 m^2\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
2. A rectangular field is to be fenced on three sides leaving a side of 20 feet uncovered.If the area of the field is 680 sq.ft, how many feet of fencing will be required ?
- 88 feet
- 86 feet
- 84 feet
- 82 feet
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
We are given with length and area, so we can find the breadth.
as Length * Breadth = Area
=> 20 * Breadth = 680
=> Breadth = 34 feet
Area to be fenced = 2B + L = 2*34 + 20
= 88 feet
3. The percentage increase in the area of a rectangle, if each of its sides is increased by 20% is:
- 32%
- 34%
- 42%
- 44%
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}
4. A farmer wishes to start a 100 sq. m. rectangular vegetable garden. Since he has only 30 meter barbed wire, he fences three sides of the garden letting his house compound wall act as the fourth side fencing. Then find the dimension of the garden.
- 10 m * 5 m
- 15 m * 5 m
- 20 m * 5 m
- 25 m * 5 m
Answer: Option C
Explanation:
From the question, 2b+l = 30
=> l = 30-2b
\begin{aligned}
Area = 100m^2 \\
=> l \times b = 100 \\
=> b(30-2b) = 100 \\
b^2 - 15b + 50 = 0 \\
=>(b-10)(b-5)=0 \\
\end{aligned}
b = 10 or b = 5
when b = 10 then l = 10
when b = 5 then l = 20
Since the garden is rectangular so we will take value of breadth 5.
So its dimensions are 20 m * 5 m
5. The area of rhombus is 150 cm square. The length of one of the its diagonals is 10 cm. The length of the other diagonal is:
- 15 cm
- 20 cm
- 25 cm
- 30 cm
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
We know the product of diagonals is 1/2*(product of diagonals)
Let one diagonal be d1 and d2
So as per question
\begin{aligned}
\frac{1}{2}*d1*d2 = 150 \\
\frac{1}{2}*10*d2 = 150 \\
d2 = \frac{150}{5} = 30 \\
\end{aligned}
