Question Detail

The area of a square is 69696 cm square. What will be its diagonal ?

373.196 cm
373.110 cm
373.290 cm
373.296 cm

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

If area is given then we can easily find side of a square as,
\begin{aligned}Side = \sqrt{69696} \\
= 264 cm \\
\text{we know diagonal =}\sqrt{2}\times side \\
= \sqrt{2}\times 264 \\
= 1.414 \times 264 \\
= 373.296 cm \end{aligned}

1. If the area of a square with the side a is equal to the area of a triangle with base a, then the altitude of the triangle is.

a
a/2
2a
None of above

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{We know area of square =}a^2 \\
\text{Area of triangle =}\frac{1}{2}*a*h \\
=> \frac{1}{2}*a*h = a^2 \\
=> h = 2a

\end{aligned}

2. There is a plot which is rectangular in shape and it area is 460 square metres. What will be breadth of the plot if length of plot is 15% more than the breadth of plot ?

8 mtr
10 mtr
15 mtr
20 mtr

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned} l*b = 460 m^2 \end{aligned} .. (i)
Lets suppose breadth of plot is = b rnLength will be,\begin{aligned}l=b*\frac{100+15}{100}\\=\frac{115b}{100}\end{aligned} .. (ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get :
\begin{aligned}
\frac{115b}{100}*b = 460 \\
b^2 = \frac{46000}{115} = 400 \\
=> b = \sqrt{400} = 20 meter
\end{aligned}

3. The area of incircle of an equilateral triangle of side 42 cm is :

\begin{aligned} 462 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 452 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 442 cm^2 \end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} 432 cm^2 \end{aligned}

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Radius of incircle} = \frac{a}{2\sqrt3} \\
= \frac{42}{2\sqrt3} \\
= 7\sqrt{3} \\
\text{Area of incircle =} \\
\frac{22}{7}*49*3 = 462 cm^2
\end{aligned}

4. If the circumference of a circle increases from 4pi to 8 pi, what change occurs in the area ?

Area is quadrupled
Area is tripled
Area is doubles
Area become half

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
2\pi R1 = 4 \pi \\
=> R1 = 2 \\
2\pi R2 = 8 \pi \\
=> R2 = 4 \\
\text{Original Area =} 4\pi * 2^2 \\
= 16 \pi \\
\text{New Area =} 4\pi * 4^2 \\
= 64 \pi
\end{aligned}

So the area quadruples.

5. What will be the cost of gardening 1 meter boundary around a rectangular plot having perimeter of 340 meters at the rate of Rs. 10 per square meter ?

Rs. 3430
Rs. 3440
Rs. 3450
Rs. 3460

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
