Question Detail
What will be the ratio between the area of a rectangle and the area of a triangle with one of the sides of the rectangle as base and a vertex on the opposite side of the rectangle ?
- 1:1
- 1:2
- 2:3
- 2:1
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
As far as questions of Area or Volume and Surface area are concerned, it is all about formulas and very little logic. So its a sincere advice to get all formulas remembered before solving these questions.
Lets solve this,
\begin{aligned}
\text{Area of rectangle =}l*b\\
\text{Area of triangle =}\frac{1}{2}l*b\\
\text{Ratio =}l*b:\frac{1}{2}l*b \\
= 1:\frac{1}{2} \\
= 2:1
\end{aligned}
One little thing which should be taken care in this type of question is, be sure you are calculating ration in the given order of the question.
If it is ratio of triangle and rectangle then we have to write triangle formula first. cheers :)
1. A towel, when bleached, was found to have lost 20% of its length and 10% of its breadth. The percentage of decrease in area is ?
- 25%
- 26%
- 27%
- 28%
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}
2. 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}
3. 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
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. What are the least number of square tiles required to pave the floor of a room 15 m 17 cm long and 9 m 2 cm broad ?
- 714
- 814
- 850
- 866
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
In this type of questions, first we need to calculate the area of tiles. With we can get by obtaining the length of largest tile.
Length of largest tile can be obtained from HCF of length and breadth.
So lets solve this,
Length of largest tile = HCF of (1517 cm and 902 cm)
= 41 cm
Required number of tiles =
\begin{aligned}
\frac{\text{Area of floor}}{\text{Area of tile}} \\
= \left(\frac{1517\times902}{41 \times 41}\right)\\
= 814
\end{aligned}
