Question 2.
2 m wide path is present the outer side of the square grass land of side 80 m. Find the area of path and total expenditure of the path flooring with bricks, if the cost of flooring with bricks per sq.m is ₹ 200.

Answer:
Given side of the grass land = 80 m
Width of the path = 2 m
Path laid out side the grass land.
So, outer side of grassland
= side + 2 × width
= 80 + 2 × 2 = 84 m

ABCD = 80 × 80 – 6400 sq.m
Area of the grass land with path
EFGH = 84 × 84 = 7056 sq.m
Area of the path = Area of EFGH – Area of ABCD
= 7056 – 6400 = 656 sq.m.
Cost of flooring per sq.m = ₹ 200
∴ Cost of flooring per 656 sq.m
= 656 × 200 = ₹ 1,31.200

In the part of ‘Nadu-Nedu’ programme, Head master decided to arrange cir¬cular shape flower bed with radius 7 m in the premises of his school. How many flower plants needed if it takes 4 plants per sq. m. ?
Answer:
Here, length of the rectangle (l)
= Half of the perimeter of circle
= πr
breadth of the rectangle (b)
= radius of circle
= r
We know that the area of the rectangle = l × b = πr × r (∵ l = πr, b = r)
= πr² – Area of the circle.
So, the area of the circle A = πr²
Now we solve above problem,
where ‘r’ = 7m
Area of flower bed = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7 × 7
= 22 × 7
= 154 sq.m
Number of plants per sq.m = 4
Number of plants for 154 sq.m
= 154 × 4 = 616 plants.
So, Headmaster needs 616 plants for the flower bed.

Radius of circular shaped grass land is 11 m. A goat is tied with a rope of length 4 m at the centre, then find the area of grass land that the goat cannot graze.
Answer:
Given the radius of grass land = 11 m
Area of grass land = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 11 × 11
= \(\frac{2662}{7}\)
∴ Area of grass land = 380.29 sq.m.
Radius of the small circle = length of rope to which goat tied = 4m
Area of land that the goat can graze = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 4 × 4
= \(\frac{352}{7}\) = 50.29 sq.m
∴ Area of land that the goat cannot graze
= Area of grass land – Area of grazed

Answer:

Examples

Question 1.
Find the area of the given triangles.

Answer:
(i) In ∆PQR, Base (QR) = 6 cm,
Height (PS) = 4 cm

Area of ∆PQR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x base x height
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × QR × PS
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 6 cm × 4 cm
= 12 sq.cm.

(ii) In ∆LMN, Base (MN) = 3 cm,
Height (LO) = 2 cm
Area of ∆LMN = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × height
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × MN × LO
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 3 cm × 2 cm
= 3 sq.cm

Question 2.
The area of the ∆ XYZ is 12 sq.cm and the height XL is 3 cm, then find base YZ.
Answer:

In ∆ XYZ, Base = YZ,
Height (XL) = 3 cm,
Area of the XYZ = 12 sq.cm.
Area of the ∆XYZ = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × height
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × YZ × XL
⇒ 12 = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × YZ × 3
⇒ YZ = 12 × \(\frac{2}{3}\)
So, YZ = 8 cm

Question 3.
In ∆ ABC, AC = 8 cm, BC = 4 cm and AE = 5 cm.
Find (i) the area of the AABC (ii) BD.
Answer:

(i) In ∆ ABC, Base (BC) = 4 cm,

= = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 4 × 5
10 sq.cm.

(ii) In ABAC, Base (AC) = 8 cm,
height (BD) = ?,
Area of ∆ BAC = 10 sq.cm
Area of the ∆ BAC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × base × height
i. e. 10 = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 8 × BD
BD = 10 × \(\frac{2}{8}\) = \(\frac{10}{4}\) = \(\frac{5}{2}\) = 2.5
So, height (BD) = 2.5 cm

Question 4.
Calculate the area of the given right-angled triangle with sides having right angle are 6 cm, 6 cm.
Answer:

Method – 1: Sides having right angles are 6 cm, 6 cm.
Sides forming the right angle a = 6 cm, b = 6 cm
Area of a right-angled triangle
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × Product of sides forming the right angle
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × a × b
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 6 × 6
= 6 × 3 = 18 sq.cm.

(or)

Method – 2: Observe the grid carefully, the right angled triangle covering half of the area of Square.
Area of a right-angled triangle
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × Area of square
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 6 × 6 = 18 sq.cm.

Question 5.

Answer:
Base of the triangle shaped lawn = 12 m.
Height = 7 m.
Area of triangle shaped lawn 1
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × b × h
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 12 × 7
= 6 × 7 = 42 Sq.m
Cost of grass for laying in lawn per 1 Sq.m = ₹ 300
Cost of grass for laying in lawn for 42 Sq.m = ₹ 300 × 42 = ₹ 12,600

Question 6.
The length and breadth of a rectangular field is 65 m, 30 m respectively. A path of width 2.5 m is made around the park outside. Find the area of the path.

Answer:
In the fig, ABCD is a rectangular field and shaded area shows 2.5m. wide path. EFGH is a rectangle (field with path)
Length of ABCD (AB) = 65m.,
Breadth of ABCD (AD) = 30m.
Width of path = 2.5 m.
Area of path = Area of outer rectangular- field EFGH – Area of inner rectangular field ABCD
Length of rectangle EFGH = EF
= Length of field (AB) + (2 × Width of path)
= 65m + (2 × 2.5 m)
= 65m + 5m = 70m
Breadth of rectangle EFGH = EH
= Breadth of field (AD) + (2 × Width of path)
= 30 m + (2 × 2.5m)
= 30 m + 5m = 35m
Area of outer rectangle
EFGH = length × breadth
70m × 35m = 2450 Sq.m
Area of inner rectangle
ABCD = length × breadth
= 65 m × 30 m
= 1950 Sq.m
Area of path = Area of outer rectangle EFGH – Area of inner rectangle ABCD
= 2450 Sq.m – 1950 Sq.m
= 500 Sq.m.

Question 7.
A square shaped swimming pool of side 70m. It has 5m width path is present the outer side of the boundary. Find the area of this path. Find the expenditure of covering that path with tiles at the rate of ₹ 150 per sq.m.
Answer:
WXYZ shows a square shaped swimming pool of side 70m. 5m wide path to the outer side of the swimming pool.,
Area of the path = Area of swimming pool PQRS with path – Area of swimming pool WXYZ
PS = Side of swimming pool (WZ) + (2 × breadth of path)
= 70m + (2 × 5m)
= 70m + 10m = 80m

Area of swimming pool with path
PQRS = (Side)² = (80 m)²
= 6400 Sq.m.
Area of swimming pool
WXYZ = (Side)² = (70 m)²
= 4900 Sq.m.
Area of path = Area of swimming pool PQRS with path – Area of swimming pool WXYZ
= 6400 – 4900 = 1500 Sq.m.
If cost of covering tiles per 1 Sq.m.
= ₹ 150
Cost of covering tiles per 1500 Sq.m.
= ₹ 150 × 1500
= ₹ 2,25,000

Question 8.
The length of rectangular grass land is 55 m and breadth is 45 m in the centre of the grass land two paths of 3 m wide one parallel to the length and another parallel to breadth are situated in such a way that they intersect each other. Find the area of the path.
Answer:
In fig. ABCD is rectangular grass land.
Length of ABCD = 55 m
Breadth of ABCD = 45 m
Width of path = 3 m
Area of path EFGH = Length × Width
= 55 × 3
= 165 Sq.m

Area of path MNOP
= Breadth × Width
= 45 × 3 = 135 Sq.m.
Area of common path IJKL (situated on both paths)
= Width × Width = 3 m × 3 m = 9 Sq.m.
Area of square IJKL i.e., 9 Sq.m is included in both the paths. So we subtract one time.
Area of total path = Area of path EFGH + Area of path MNOP – Area of IJKL
= (165 Sq.m. + 135 Sq.m. – 9 Sq.m.)
= (300 9) Sq.m.
= 291 Sq.m.

Question 9.
Find the area of the rangoli of it’s radius is 21 cm.
(Use π = \(\frac{22}{7}\))

Answer:
Radius of rangoli (r) = 21 cm

Area of circular shaped rangoli = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 21 cm × 21 cm
= 1386 sq. cm
∴ Area of the circle = 1386 sq. cm

Question 10.
Find the surface area of a circular shaped pool whose diameter is 28 m
(Use π = \(\frac{22}{7}\)).

Answer:
The diameter of circular shaped pool (d) = 28 m
Radius (r) = \(\frac{28}{2}\) m = 14 m
Area of a circular shaped pool = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (14m)²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 14 m × 14 m
= 22 × 2 × 14 sq.m.
= 616 sq.m.

Question 11.
In a circular shaped park inner portion is given for kids to play and outer portion is given for walking to elders. If outer radius is 35 m, width of walking track is 14 m, then find the area of walking path.

Answer:
Outer radius of park (R) = 35 m,
Width of walking track = 14 m.
Radius of playground (r) = R – w = 35 – 14 = 21m.
Area of walking track = Area of the park – Area of playing ground
= πR² – πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 35² – \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 21²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) (35² – 21²)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) (1225 – 441)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 784
= 22 × 112 = 2464 sq.m

Question 12.
A water fountain is in circular shaped whose radius is 10 m. Its inner portion of radius 3m is arranged for fountain and remaining part is cemented. Find the area of that cemented part and total cost of cementing if cost of cementing is ₹ 200 per sq.m.
Answer:
Radius for total water fountain (R) = 10m
Radius of fountain arranged portion (r) = 3 m
Area of cemented part = Area of total water fountain – Area of fountain arranged portion
= πR² – πr²

= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (10)² – \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (3)²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) [(10)² – (3)²)
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) (100 – 9) sq.m.
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 91 sq.m.
= 22 × 13
= 286 sq.m
Given the cost of cementing per sq.m = ₹ 200
∴ Total cost of cementing = 286 × 200 = ₹ 57,200

Question 3.
Find the area of a triangle if its base is 18 cm, height is 13 cm.

Answer:
Given base of the triangle b = 18 cm
Height of the triangle h = 13 cm
Area of the triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∙ b ∙ h

∴ Area of the triangle = 117 sq.cm.

Question 4.
In a park a rectangular path given outside for walking around the grassland of length 28 m., and breadth 20m. If the width of the walking path is 2m., find the area of walking path.

Answer:
Given inner length of the park l = 28 m
Breadth b = 20 m

Area of the inner rectangle = l × b
= 28 × 20
= 560 sq.m
Path laid outside around the grassland.
Width of the path = 2 m
So, outer length of rectangle
l = Inner length + 2 × Width
= 28 + 2 × 2 = 28 + 4 = 32 m
Breadth b = 20 + 2 × 2
= 20 + 4 = 24m
Area of the outer rectangle = l × b = 32 × 24 = 768 sq.m
∴ Area of the walking path = outer area – inner area
= 768 – 560 = 208 sq.m.

Question 5.
The elevation of building have square – shaped window of a side 150 cm. Around this window tiles arranged with a width of 70 cm. Find the area of tiles and total cost of tiles arranged, if cost per sq.cm. is ₹ 5.
Answer:
Side of square window = 150 cm
Area of square window = 150 × 150 A
= 22500 cm²
Area of square formed by arranging tiles around the window
= (150 + 70)² = 220² = 48400 cm²
Area of tiles laid = (Area of outer square) – Area of inner square
= 48400 – 22500 = 25900
∴ Total cost by laying tiles around the window
@ ₹5 per cm² is = 259 × 5 = ₹ 1295.00

Question 6.
Two cross roads, each of width 4 m, run at right angles through the centre of a rectangular park of length 60 m and breadth 40 m and parallel to its sides. Find the area of the roads. Also find the cost of constructing the roads at the rate of ₹ 100 sq.m.

Answer:
Length of the rectangular park = 60 m
Breadth of the rectangular park = 40 m
Length of the path along length of the park = 60 m
Width of the path along length of the park = 40 m
Area of the path along length of the park = 60 × 4 = 240 m²
Similarly,
Length of the path along breadth of the park = 40 m
Width = 4m
∴ Area of the path along its breadth = 40 × 4 = 160 m²
Hence, area of the paths = Area of the path along length + Area of the path along breadth – Area of the intersecting square
= 240 + 160 – 4 × 4
= 400 – 16 = 384
∴ Cost of construction at the rate of
₹ 100 per sq.m = 384 × 100 = ₹ 38400

Question 7.
Find the area of the circular-shaped photo frame whose radius is 28 cm. If the cost of decoration is ₹ 3 per sq. cm., find the total cost of decoration.
Answer:
Radius of the circle = 28 cm
Area = πr²
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 28 × 28 = 2464 cm²
Circumference of the photo frame 2πr
= 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 28 = 176 cm
∴ Cost of decorative piece at the rate of ₹ 3 per cm is 176 × 3 = ₹ 528

Question 8.
Find the path area of circular-shaped grassland of radius 42 m where the width of the path is 7 m. around and outside the circle. Find the area of path and total cost of flooring, if the cost of flooring is ₹ 150 per sq.m.

Answer:
Radius of circular floor = 42 m
Width around it = 7 m
Radius of outer circle = 42 + 7 = 49 m
Area of outside path = Area of outer circle – Area of inner cirlce
Area of inner circle = πr² = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 42 × 42

Lobby in constructed around the ground.
Radius of the inner circle = Outer radius – width of the path
= 55 – 5 = 50m
Area of the inner circle = πr²
Area of the path = Outer area – Inner area
= 9507.14 – 7857.14 = 1650 sq.m
Cost of constructing seating arrangement per sq.m = ₹ 1500
Cost of seating arrangement per 1650 sq.m = 1650 × 1500 = ₹ 24,75,000
