The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of \begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}\end{aligned}. If the perimeter is 52 cm, then find the length of the smallest side.

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}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the lengths of the line segments be x and x+2 cm
then,
\begin{aligned}
{(x+2)}^2 - x^2 = 32 \\
x^2 + 4x + 4 - x^2 = 32 \\
4x = 28 \\
x = 7 cm
\end{aligned}

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 C

Explanation:

Let the original radius be R cm. New radius = 2R

\begin{aligned}
Area = \pi R^2 \\
\text{New Area =} \pi {2R}^2 \\
= 4\pi R^2 \\
\text{Increase in area =}(4\pi R^2 - \pi R^2) \\
= 3\pi R^2 \\
\text{Increase percent =} \frac{3\pi R^2}{\pi R^2}*100 \\
= 300 \%
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
\text{Number of bricks =}\frac{\text{Courtyard area}}{\text{1 brick area}} \\
= \left( \frac{2500 \times 1600}{20 \times 10} \right) \\
= 20000
\end{aligned}
