The area of a rectangle is 460 square metres. If the length is 15% more than the breadth, what is the breadth of the rectangular field ?

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:

Let Breadth = x cm,
then, Length = 3x cm
\begin{aligned}
x^2+{(3x)}^2 = {(8\sqrt{10})}^2 \\
=> 10x^2 = 640 \\
=> x = 8 \\
\end{aligned}
So, length = 24 cm and breadth = 8 cm
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
= 2(24+8) = 64 cm

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let each side be a cm, then
\begin{aligned}
\left(\frac{a}{2}\right)^2+{10}^2 = a^2 \\
<=>\left(a^2-\frac{a^2}{4}\right) = 100 \\
<=> \frac{3a^2}{4} = 100 \\
a^2 = \frac{400}{3} \\
Area = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*a^2 \\
= \left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*\frac{400}{3}\right)cm^2 \\
= \frac{100}{\sqrt{3}}cm^2
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In this question, we are having perimeter.
We know Perimeter = 2(l+b), right
So,
2(l+b) = 340
As we have to make 1 meter boundary around this, so
Area of boundary = ((l+2)+(b+2)-lb)
= 2(l+b)+4 = 340+4 = 344

So required cost will be = 344 * 10 = 3440

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let breadth =x metres.
Then length =(115x/100)metres.
\begin{aligned}
=x*\frac{115x}{100}= 460\\
x^2=(460 x 100/115) \\
x^2=400 \\
x= 20 \\
\end{aligned}
