All questions of Perimeter and Area for Class 5 Exam

What is the perimeter of a figure with sides measuring 4 cm, 5 cm, 6 cm, and 7 cm?
  • a)
    25 cm
  • b)
    30 cm
  • c)
    20 cm
  • d)
    22 cm
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Edu Impact answered
The perimeter is calculated by adding the lengths of all sides: 4 cm + 5 cm + 6 cm + 7 cm = 22 cm. This total gives the distance around the figure.

Which shape has the formula for perimeter given by Side a + Side b + Side c?
  • a)
    Square
  • b)
    Rectangle
  • c)
    Triangle
  • d)
    Circle
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

The perimeter of a triangle is calculated by adding the lengths of all three sides together, hence the formula is Side a + Side b + Side c.

What is the perimeter of a rectangle that is 10 cm long and 4 cm wide?
  • a)
    20 cm
  • b)
    40 cm
  • c)
    14 cm
  • d)
    28 cm
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Glitz Classes answered
The perimeter is calculated using the formula 2 × (Length + Breadth). Thus, 2 × (10 cm + 4 cm) = 2 × 14 cm = 28 cm.

If a square has a perimeter of 32 cm, what is the length of one side?
  • a)
    4 cm
  • b)
    8 cm
  • c)
    16 cm
  • d)
    12 cm
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Edu Impact answered
To find the length of one side of a square from the perimeter, divide the perimeter by 4. Therefore, 32 cm ÷ 4 = 8 cm. Each side of the square measures 8 cm.

If a rectangle's length is halved, what happens to its area?
  • a)
    It triples
  • b)
    It remains the same
  • c)
    It is halved
  • d)
    It doubles
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Halving the length while keeping the breadth constant reduces the area to half of its original value because area is directly proportional to length.

Which of the following shapes has all sides equal in length?
  • a)
    Square
  • b)
    Parallelogram
  • c)
    Rectangle
  • d)
    Triangle
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

A square is defined as a shape with four equal sides, making it unique among common geometric shapes. This equality of sides contributes to its special properties.

What is the area of a square with a perimeter of 20 cm?
  • a)
    36 cm²
  • b)
    16 cm²
  • c)
    20 cm²
  • d)
    25 cm²
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Dr Manju Sen answered
First, find the side length by dividing the perimeter by 4: 20 cm ÷ 4 = 5 cm. Then calculate the area: Area = 5 cm × 5 cm = 25 cm².

If you cover an area of 100 m² with square tiles that each cover 1 m², how many tiles do you need?
  • a)
    100
  • b)
    50
  • c)
    25
  • d)
    10
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Gunjan Lakhani answered
Since each tile covers 1 m², you would need 100 tiles to cover an area of 100 m². This is a straightforward calculation based on the area coverage of each tile.

How do you find the area of an irregular shape?
  • a)
    By counting the number of square units that cover the shape
  • b)
    By using the formula for a rectangle
  • c)
    By multiplying the length by the width
  • d)
    By measuring the perimeter
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Glitz Classes answered
To find the area of an irregular shape, you can estimate it by counting the number of square units that completely cover the shape. This method provides a practical way to measure areas that do not fit standard geometric formulas.
