Answer:
We know that all the angles of a rectangle are 90° and the diagonal divides the rectangle into two right angled triangles.
So, 48 m will be one side of the triangle and the diagonal, which is 50 m, will be the hypotenuse.
According to the Pythagoras theorem:
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (Perpendicular)2
Perpendicular =
Perpendicular = m
∴ Other side of the rectangular plot = 14 m
Length = 48m
Breadth = 14m
∴ Area of the rectangular plot = 48 m 14 m = 672 m2
Hence, the area of a rectangular plot is 672 m2.

Answer:
Let the length of the field be 4x m.
Breadth = 3x m
∴ Area of the field = (4x 3x) m2 = 12x2 m2
But it is given that the area is 1728 m2.
∴ 12x2 = 1728
⇒ x2 = = 144
⇒ x = = 12
∴ Length = (4 12) m = 48 m
Breadth = (3 12) m =36 m
∴ Perimeter of the field = 2(l + b) units
= 2(48 + 36) m = (2 84) m = 168 m
∴ Cost of fencing = Rs (168 30) = Rs 5040

Hence, the total cost of carpeting the room is Rs 16380.
Page No 229:
Answer:
Given:
Length of the room = 15 m
Width of the carpet = 75 cm = 0.75 m (since 1 m = 100 cm)
Let the length of the carpet required for carpeting the room be x m.
Cost of the carpet = Rs. 80 per m
∴ Cost of x m carpet = Rs. (80 x) = Rs. (80x)
Cost of carpeting the room = Rs. 19200
∴ 80x = 19200 ⇒ x = = 240
Thus, the length of the carpet required for carpeting the room is 240 m.
Area of the carpet required for carpeting the room = Length of the carpet Width of the carpet
= ( 240 0.75) m2 = 180 m2
Let the width of the room be b m.
Area to be carpeted = 15 m b m = 15b m2
∴ 15b m2 = 180 m2
⇒ b = m = 12 m
Hence, the width of the room is 12 m.

Area of the square plot = 6084 m2
Side of the square plot =
= m
= m = 78 m
∴ Perimeter of the square plot = 4 side = (4 78) m = 312 m
312 m wire is needed to go along the boundary of the square plot once.
Required length of the wire that can go four times along the boundary = 4 Perimeter of the square plot
= (4 312) m = 1248 m
Page No 230:
Answer:
Side of the square = 10 cm
Length of the wire = Perimeter of the square = 4 Side = 4 10 cm = 40 cm
Length of the rectangle (l) = 12 cm
Let b be the breadth of the rectangle.
Perimeter of the rectangle = Perimeter of the square
⇒ 2(l + b) = 40
⇒ 2(12 + b) = 40
⇒ 24 + 2b = 40
⇒ 2b = 40 - 24 = 16
⇒ b = cm = 8 cm
∴ Breadth of the rectangle = 8 cm
Now, Area of the square = (Side)2 = (10 cm 10 cm) = 100 cm2
Area of the rectangle = l b = (12 cm 8 cm) = 96 cm2
Hence, the square encloses more area.
It encloses 4 cm2 more area.

Length = 50 m
Breadth = 40 m
Height = 10 m
Area of the four walls = {2h(l + b)} sq. unit
= {2 10 (50 + 40)}m2
= {20 90} m2 = 1800 m2
Area of the ceiling = l b = (50 m 40 m) = 2000 m2
∴ Total area to be white washed = (1800 + 2000) m2 = 3800 m2
Rate of white washing = Rs 20/sq. metre
∴ Total cost of white washing = Rs (3800 20) = Rs 76000

Given:
Breadth of the room = 10 m
Height of the room = 4 m
Area of the four walls = [2(l + b)h] sq units.
= 168 m2
∴ 168 = [2(l + 10) 4]
⇒ 168 = [8l + 80]
⇒ 168 - 80 = 8l
⇒ 88 = 8l
⇒ l = m = 11 m
∴ Length of the room = 11 m

∴ 77 = [2(7.5 + 3.5)h]
⇒ 77 = [(2 11)h]
⇒ 77 = 22h
⇒ h = m = m = 3.5 m
∴ Height of the room = 3.5 m
Page No 230:
Answer:
Let the breadth of the room be x m.
Length of the room = 2x m
Area of the four walls = {2(l + b) h} sq. units
120 m2 = {2(2x + x) 4} m2
⇒ 120 = {8 3x }
⇒ 120 = 24x
⇒ x = = 5
∴ Length of the room = 2x = (2 5) m = 10 m
Breadth of the room = x = 5 m
∴ Area of the floor = l b = (10 m 5 m) = 50 m2
Page No 230:
Answer:
Length = 8.5 m
Breadth = 6.5 m
Height = 3.4 m
Area of the four walls = {2(l + b) h} sq. units
= {2(8.5 + 6.5) 3.4}m2 = {30 3.4} m2 = 102 m2
Area of one door = (1.5 1) m2 = 1.5 m2
∴ Area of two doors = (2 1.5) m2 = 3 m2
Area of one window = (2 1) m2 = 2 m2
∴ Area of two windows = (2 2) m2 = 4 m2
Total area of two doors and two windows = (3 + 4) m2
= 7 m2
Area to be painted = (102 - 7) m2 = 95 m2
Rate of painting = Rs 160 per m2
Total cost of painting = Rs (95 160) = Rs 15200

Answer:
Let PQRS be the given grassy plot and ABCD be the inside boundary of the path.
Length = 75 m
Breadth = 60 m
Area of the plot = (75 60) m2 = 4500 m2
Width of the path = 2 m
∴ AB = (75 - 2 2) m = (75 - 4) m =71 m
AD = (60 - 2 2) m = (60 - 4) m = 56 m
Area of rectangle ABCD = (71 x 56) m2 = 3976 m2
Area of the path = (Area of PQRS - Area of ABCD)
= (4500 - 3976) m2 = 524 m2
Rate of constructing the path = Rs 125 per m2
∴ Total cost of constructing the path = Rs (524 125) = Rs 65,500

Answer:
Let PQRS be the given rectangular plot and ABCD be the inside boundary of the path.
Length = 95 m
Breadth = 72 m
Area of the plot = (95 72) m2 = 6,840 m2
Width of the path = 3.5 m
∴ AB = (95 - 2 3.5) m = (95 - 7) m = 88 m
AD = (72 - 2 3.5) m = (72 - 7) m = 65 m
Area of the grassy rectangle plot ABCD = (88 65) m2 = 5,720 m2
Area of the path = (Area PQRS - Area ABCD)
= (6840 - 5720) m2 = 1,120 m2
Rate of constructing the path = Rs. 80 per m2
∴ Total cost of constructing the path = Rs. (1,120 80) = Rs. 89,600
Rate of laying the grass on the plot ABCD = Rs. 40 per m2
∴ Total cost of laying the grass on the plot = Rs. (5,720 40) = Rs. 2,28,800
∴ Total expenses involved = Rs. ( 89,600 + 2,28,800) = Rs. 3,18,400

Answer:
Let ABCD be the saree and EFGH be the part of saree without border.
Length, AB= 5 m
Breadth, BC = 1.3 m
Width of the border of the saree = 25 cm = 0.25 m
∴ Area of ABCD = 5 m 1.3 m = 6.5 m2
Length, GH = {5 -( 0.25 + 0.25} m = 4.5 m
Breadth, FG = {1.3 - 0.25 + 0.25} m = 0.8 m
∴ Area of EFGH = 4.5 m .8 m = 3.6 m2
Area of the border = Area of ABCD − Area of EFGH
= 6.5 m2 − 3.6 m2
= 2.9 m2 = 29000 cm2 [since 1 m2 = 10000 cm2]
Rate of printing the border = Rs 1 per 10 cm2
∴ Total cost of printing the border = Rs
= Rs 2900

Length, AB = (38 + 2.5 + 2.5 ) m = 43 m
Breadth, BC = ( 25 + 2.5 + 2.5 ) m = 30 m
∴ Area of ABCD = 43 m 30 m = 1290 m2
Area of the path = Area of ABCD − Area of PQRS
= 1290 m2 − 950 m2
= 340 m2
Rate of gravelling the path = Rs 120 per m2
∴ Total cost of gravelling the path = Rs (120 340)

Answer:
Let EFGH denote the floor of the room.
The white region represents the floor of the 1.25 m verandah.
Length, EF = 9.5 m
Breadth, FG = 6 m
∴ Area of EFGH = 9.5 m 6 m = 57 m2
Length, AB = (9.5 + 1.25 + 1.25 ) m = 12 m
Breadth, BC = ( 6 + 1.25 + 1.25 ) m = 8.5 m
∴ Area of ABCD = 12 m 8.5 m = 102 m2
Area of the verandah = Area of ABCD − Area of EFGH
= 102 m2 − 57 m2
= 45 m2
Rate of cementing the verandah = Rs 80 per m2
∴ Total cost of cementing the verandah = Rs ( 80 45)
= Rs 3600

Answer:
Side of the flower bed = 2 m 80 cm = 2.80 m [since 100 cm = 1 m]
∴ Area of the square flower bed = (Side)2 = (2.80 m )2 = 7.84 m2
Side of the flower bed with the digging strip = 2.80 m + 30 cm + 30 cm
= (2.80 + 0.3 + 0.3) m = 3.4 m
Area of the enlarged flower bed with the digging strip = (Side )2 = (3.4 )2 = 11.56 m2
∴ Increase in the area of the flower bed = 11.56 m2 − 7.84 m2
= 3.72 m2

Answer:
Let the length and the breadth of the park be 2x m and x m, respectively.
Perimeter of the park = 2(2x + x) = 240 m
⇒ 2(2x + x) = 240
⇒ 6x = 240
⇒ x = m =40 m
∴ Length of the park = 2x = (2 40) = 80 m
Breadth = x = 40 m
Let PQRS be the given park and ABCD be the inside boundary of the path.
Length = 80 m
Breadth = 40 m
Area of the park = (80 40) m2 = 3200 m2
Width of the path = 2 m
∴ AB = (80 - 2 2) m = (80 - 4) m =76 m
AD = (40 - 2 2) m = (40 - 4) m = 36 m
Area of the rectangle ABCD = (76 36) m2 = 2736 m2
Area of the path = (Area of PQRS - Area of ABCD)
= (3200 - 2736) m2 = 464 m2
Rate of paving the path = Rs. 80 per m2
∴ Total cost of paving the path = Rs. (464 80) = Rs. 37,120

Answer:
Length of the hall, PQ = 22 m
Breadth of the hall, QR = 15.5 m
∴ Area of the school hall PQRS = 22 m 15.5 m = 341 m2
Length of the carpet, AB = 22 m − ( 0.75 m + 0.75 m) = 20.5 m [since 100 cm = 1 m]
Breadth of the carpet, BC = 15.5 m − ( 0.75 m + 0.75 m) = 14 m
∴ Area of the carpet ABCD = 20.5 m 14 m = 287 m2
Area of the strip = Area of the school hall (PQRS) − Area of the carpet (ABCD)
= 341 m2 − 287 m2
= 54 m2
Area of 1 m length of the carpet = 1 m 0.82 m = 0.82 m2
∴ Length of the carpet whose area is 287 m2 = 287 m2 ÷ 0.82 m2 = 350 m
Cost of the 350 m long carpet = Rs 60 350 = Rs 21000

Answer:
Let ABCD be the square lawn and PQRS be the outer boundary of the square path.
Let a side of the lawn (AB) be x m.
Area of the square lawn = x2
Length, PQ = (x m + 2.5 m + 2.5 m) = (x + 5) m
∴ Area of PQRS = (x + 5)2 = (x2 + 10x + 25) m2
Area of the path = Area of PQRS − Area of the square lawn (ABCD)
⇒ 165 = x2 + 10x + 25 − x2
⇒ 165 = 10x + 25
⇒ 165 − 25 = 10x
⇒ 140 = 10x
∴ x = 140 ÷ 10 = 14
∴ Side of the lawn = 14 m
∴ Area of the lawn = (Side)2 = (14 m)2 = 196 m2

Answer:
Area of the path = 305 m2
Let the length of the park be 5x m and the breadth of the park be 2x m.
∴ Area of the rectangular park = 5x 2x = 10x2 m2
Width of the path = 2.5 m
Outer length, PQ = 5x m + 2.5 m + 2.5 m = (5x + 5) m
Outer breadth, QR = 2x + 2.5 m + 2.5 m = (2x + 5) m
Area of PQRS = (5x + 5) (2x + 5) = (10x2 + 25x + 10x + 25) = (10x2 + 35x + 25) m2
∴ Area of the path = [(10x2 + 35x + 25) − 10x2 ] m2
⇒ 305 = 35x + 25
⇒ 305 − 25 = 35x
⇒ 280 = 35x
⇒ x = 280 ÷ 35 = 8
∴ Length of the park = 5x = 5 8 = 40 m
Breadth of the park = 2x = 2 8 = 16 m

Area of road EFGH = 70 m 5 m = 350 m2
Area of road IJKL = 50 m 5 m = 250 m2
Clearly, area of MNOP is common to both the two roads.
∴ Area of MNOP = 5 m 5 m = 25 m2
Area of the roads = Area (EFGH) + Area (IJKL) − Area (MNOP)
= (350 + 250 ) m2− 25 m2 = 575 m2
It is given that the cost of constructing the roads is Rs. 120/m2.

Area of the road PQRS = 115 m 2 m = 230 m2
Area of the road KLMN = 64 m 2.5 m = 160 m2
Clearly, the area of EFGH is common to both the two roads.
∴ Area of EFGH = 2 m 2.5 m = 5 m2
∴ Area of the roads = Area (KLMN) + Area (PQRS) − Area (EFGH)
= (230 m2 + 160 m2) − 5 m2 = 385 m2
Rate of gravelling the roads = Rs 60 per m2
∴ Total cost of gravelling the roads = Rs (385 60)

Given:
Width of each part = 0.5 m
Now, we have to find the length of each part.
Length of part I = 3.5 m
Length of part II = (3.5 - 0.5 - 0.5) m = 2.5 m
Length of part III = (2.5 - 0.5 - 0.5) = 1.5 m
Length of part IV = (1.5 - 0.5 - 0.5) = 0.5 m
∴ Area of the shaded region = [Area of part (I) + Area of part (II) + Area of part (III) + Area of part (IV)] sq. units
= [(3.5 0.5) + (2.5 0.5) + ( 1.5 0.5) + (0.5 0.5)] m2
