Length of the second side = 

Length of third side = 

Let a = 25 m, b = 60 m, c = 65 m

(s a) = 50 cm, (s b) = 15 cm, and (s c) = 10 cm

Hence, area of the triangle = 750 m²Question 5

Length of third side = =120 m

Let a = 250m, b = 170 m and c = 120 m

Then, (s a) = 29 m, (s b) = 100 m, and (s c) = 150m

The cost of ploughing 100 area is = Rs. 18. 80

The cost of ploughing 1 is = 

The cost of ploughing 9000 area = 

                                                      = Rs. 1692

Hence, cost of ploughing = Rs 1692.Question 6

Let the length of one side be x cm

Then the length of other side = {40 (17 + x)} cm = (23 – x) cm

The circumcentre of a right – triangle is the midpoint of the hypotenuse

Hypotenuse = 2 × (radius of circumcircle)

= (2 × 8) cm = 16 cm

Base = 16 cm, height = 6 cm

The base of an isosceles triangle measure 80 cm and its area is . Find the perimeter of the triangle.Solution 17

Let each equal side be a cm and base = 80 cm

perimeter of triangle = (2a + b) cm

= (2 41 + 80) cm

= (82 + 80) cm = 162 cm

Hence, perimeter of the triangle = 162 cmQuestion 18

Each of the equal sides of an isosceles triangle measures 2 cm more than its height, and the base of the triangle measure 12 cm. Find the area of the triangle.Solution 18

Let the height be h cm, then a= (h + 2) cm and b = 12 cm

Squaring both sides,

Therefore, a = h + 2 = (8 + 2)cm = 10 cm

Question 6

A room is 16 m long and 13.5 m broad. Find the cost of covering its floor with 0.75-m-wide carpet at Rs. 60 per metre.Solution 6

Question 7

The floor of a rectangular hall is 24 m long and 18 m wide. How many carpets, each of length 2.5 m and breadth 80 cm, will be required to cover the floor of the hall?Solution 7

Area of floor = Length Breadth

Area of carpet = Length Breadth

                    ₌ 

Number of carpets = 

                                                          = 216

Hence the number of carpet pieces required = 216Question 8

A 36 m-long, 15 m-broad verandah is to be paved with stones, each measuring 6 dm by 5 dm. How many stones will be required?Solution 8

Area of verandah = (36 × 15) = 540 

Area of stone = (0.6 × 0.5) [10 dm = 1 m]

Number of stones required = 

Hence, 1800 stones are required to pave the verandah.Question 9

The area of a rectangle is 192 and its perimeter is 56 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.Solution 9

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)

2(l + b) = 56 Þ l + b = 28 cm

b = (28 l) cm

Area of rectangle = 192

l (28 l) = 192

28l – = 192

– 28l + 192 = 0

– 16l 12l + 192 = 0

l(l 16) 12(l 16) = 0

(l 16) (l 12) = 0

l = 16 or l = 12

Therefore, length = 16 cm and breadth = 12 cmQuestion 10

A rectangular park 35 m long and 18 m wide is to be covered with grass, leaving 2.5 m uncovered all around it. Find the area to be laid with grass.Solution 10

Length of the park = 35 m

Breadth of the park = 18 m

Area of the park = (35 18) ₌ 630 

Length of the park with grass =(35 5) = 30 m

Breadth of the park with grass = (18- 5) m = 13 m

Area of park with grass = (30 13) = 390 

Area of path without grass = Area of the whole park area of park with grass

                                     = 630 – 390 = 240 

Hence, area of the park to be laid with grass = 240 m²Question 11

A rectangular plot measures 125 m by 78 m. It has a gravel path 3 m wide all around on the outside. Find the area of the path and the cost of gravelling it at Rs. 75 per .Solution 11

Length of the plot = 125 m

Breadth of the plot = 78 m

Area of plot ABCD = (125 78) = 9750 

Length of the plot including the path= (125 + 3 + 3) m = 131 m

Breadth of the plot including the path = (78 + 3 + 3) m = 84 m

Area of plot PQRS including the path

                              = (131 84) = 11004 

Area of path = Area of plot PQRS Area of plot ABCD

                  = (11004 9750) 

                  = 1254 

Cost of gravelling = Rs 75 per m²

Cost of gravelling the whole path = Rs. (1254 75) = Rs. 94050

Hence, cost of gravelling the path = Rs 94050Question 12

A footpath of uniform width runs all around the inside of a rectangular field 54m long and 35 m wide. If the area of the path is 420 , find the width of the path.Solution 12

Area of rectangular field including the foot path = (54 35) 

Let the width of the path be x m

Then, area of rectangle plot excluding the path = (54 2x) (35 2x)

Area of path = (54 35) (54 2x) (35 2x)

                      (54 35) (54 2x) (35 2x) = 420

                      1890 1890 + 108x + 70x – 4 = 420

                      178x – 4 = 420

                      4 – 178x + 420 = 0

                      2 – 89x + 210 = 0

                      2 – 84x 5x + 210 = 0

                      2x(x 42) 5(x 42) = 0

                      (x 42) (2x 5) = 0

Let the length and breadth of a rectangular garden be 9x and 5x.

Then, area of garden = (9x 5x)m = 45

Length of park excluding the path = (9x 7) m

Breadth of the park excluding the path = (5x 7) m

Area of the park excluding the path = (9x 7)(5x 7) 

Area of the path = 

(98x 49) = 1911

     98x = 1911 + 49

Length = 9x = 9 20 = 180 m

Breadth = 5x = 5 20 = 100 m

Hence, length = 180 m and breadth = 100 mQuestion 14

Area of floor ABCD = (8 5) 

Area of floor PQRS without border

= (8 2x)(5 2x)

= 40 16x 10x + 

= 40 26x + 

Area of border = Area of floor ABCD Area of floor PQRS
