Question Detail
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}
1. The perimeters of 5 squares are 24 cm, 32 cm, 40 cm, 76 cm and 80 cm respectively. The perimeter of another square equal in area to the sum of the area of these square is:
- 124 cm
- 120 cm
- 64 cm
- 56 cm
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}
2. 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}
3. The perimeters of two squares are 40 cm and 32 cm. Find the perimeter of a third square whose area is equal to the difference of the areas of the two squares .
- 22 cm
- 24 cm
- 26 cm
- 28 cm
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
We know perimeter of square = 4(side)
So Side of first square = 40/4 = 10 cm
Side of second square = 32/4 = 8 cm
Area of third Square = 10*10 - 8*8
= 36 cm
So side of third square = 6 [because area of square = side*side]
Perimeter = 4*Side = 4*6 = 24 cm
4. 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
5. The Diagonals of two squares are in the ratio of 2:5. find the ratio of their areas.
- 4:25
- 4:15
- 3:25
- 3:15
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the diagonals of the squares be 2x and 5x.
Then ratio of their areas will be
\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of square} = \frac{1}{2}*{Diagonal}^2 \\
\frac{1}{2}*{2x}^2:\frac{1}{2}*{5x}^2 \\
4x^2:25x^2 = 4:25
\end{aligned}
