A. 12 π cm
B. 16 π cm
C. 24 π cm
D. 32 π cm
Radius of larger circle
= 2×196−−−√=28cm
Circumference of smaller circle
= (37×28)cm=12cm
Circumference of smaller circle
= 2πr=2π×12= 24πcm

The parameter of a square is equal to the perimeter of a rectangle of length 16 cm and breadth 14 cm. Find the circumference of a semicircle whose diameter is equal to the side of the square. (Round off your answer to two decimal places)?

The parameter of a square is equal to the perimeter of a rectangle of length 16 cm and breadth 14 cm. Find the circumference of a semicircle whose diameter is equal to the side of the square. (Round off your answer to two decimal places)?

A. 23.57 cm
B. 47.14 cm
C. 84.92 cm
D. 94.94 cm
Let the side of the square be a cm.
Parameter of the rectangle = 2(16 + 14) = 60 cm Parameter of the square = 60 cm
i.e. 4a = 60
A = 15
Diameter of the semicircle = 15 cm
Circimference of the semicircle
= 1/2(∏)(15)
= 1/2(22/7)(15) = 330/14 = 23.57 cm to two decimal places

A 25 cm wide path is to be made around a circular garden having a diameter of 4 meters. Approximate area of the path is square meters is__________?

A. 3.34
B. 2
C. 4.5
D. 5.5
Area of the path = Area of the outer circle – Area of the inner circle = ∏{4/2 + 25/100}2 – ∏[4/2]2
= ∏[2.252 – 22] = ∏(0.25)(4.25) { (a2 – b2 = (a – b)(a + b) }
= (3.14)(1/4)(17/4) = 53.38/16 = 3.34 sq m

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles.

The circumferences of two circles are 264 meters and 352 meters. Find the difference between the areas of the larger and the smaller circles.

A. 4192 sq m
B. 4304 sq m
C. 4312 sq m
D. 4360 sq m
Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be s m and l m respectively.
2∏s = 264 and 2∏l = 352
s = 264/2∏ and l = 352/2∏
Difference between the areas = ∏l2 – ∏s2
= ∏{1762/∏2 – 1322/∏2}
= 1762/∏ – 1322/∏
= (176 – 132)(176 + 132)/∏
= (44)(308)/(22/7) = (2)(308)(7) = 4312 sq m

The parameter of a square is double the perimeter of a rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 480 sq cm. Find the area of the square.

The parameter of a square is double the perimeter of a rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 480 sq cm. Find the area of the square.

A. 200 sq cm
B. 72 sq cm
C. 162 sq cm
D. Cannot be determined
Let the side of the square be a cm. Let the length and the breadth of the rectangle be l cm and b cm respectively.
4a = 2(l + b)
2a = l + b
l . b = 480
We cannot find ( l + b) only with the help of l . b. Therefore a cannot be found .
Area of the square cannot be found.

C. 5 : 14
D. None of these
Let the length and the breadth of the rectangle be l cm and b cm respectively. Let the side of the square be a cm.
a2 = 4096 = 212
a = (212)1/2 = 26 = 64
L = 2a and b = a – 24
b : l = a – 24 : 2a = 40 : 128 = 5 : 16

A wire in the form of a circle of radius 3.5 m is bent in the form of a rectangule, whose length and breadth are in the ratio of 6 : 5. What is the area of the rectangle?

A wire in the form of a circle of radius 3.5 m is bent in the form of a rectangule, whose length and breadth are in the ratio of 6 : 5. What is the area of the rectangle?

A. 60 cm2
B. 30 cm2
C. 45 cm2
D. 15 cm2
The circumference of the circle is equal to the permeter of the rectangle.
Let l = 6x and b = 5x 2(6x + 5x) = 2 * 22/7 * 3.5
=> x = 1
Therefore l = 6 cm and b = 5 cm Area of the rectangle = 6 * 5 = 30 cm2

A. 600 cm
B. 800 cm
C. 400 cm
D. 1000 cm
Area of the square = s * s = 5(125 * 64)
=> s = 25 * 8 = 200 cm
Perimeter of the square = 4 * 200 = 800 cm.

A. Rs. 3642.40
B. Rs. 3868.80
C. Rs. 4216.20
D. Rs. 4082.40
Length of the first carpet = (1.44)(6) = 8.64 cm
Area of the second carpet = 8.64(1 + 40/100) 6 (1 + 25/100)
= 51.84(1.4)(5/4) sq m = (12.96)(7) sq m
Cost of the second carpet = (45)(12.96 * 7) = 315 (13 – 0.04) = 4095 – 12.6 = Rs. 4082.40
