Solution:
Given, the area of a square is 2401 cm^2.

To find the perimeter of the square, we need to know the length of its sides.

Let's assume the length of each side of the square is 'a' cm.

Finding the length of sides:
We know that the area of a square is given by the formula: area = side^2.
So, we can write the equation as:
2401 = a^2

Taking the square root on both sides of the equation, we get:
√2401 = √(a^2)

Simplifying, we get:
49 = a

So, the length of each side of the square is 49 cm.

Finding the perimeter of the square:
The perimeter of a square is given by the formula: perimeter = 4 * side.

Substituting the value of 'a' as 49 cm, we can calculate the perimeter as:
perimeter = 4 * 49
perimeter = 196 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the square is 196 cm.

Hence, the correct answer is option C) 196 cm.

Five flower beds each of side 3cm are dug on a piece of land 17cm long and 5cm wide. What is the area of remaining part of the land?
  • a)
    35 cm2
  • b)
    40 cm2
  • c)
    25 cm2
  • d)
    30 cm2
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Vandana Nair answered
Area of one flower bed = 3 × 3 = 9 cm2
Area of five flower beds = 9 × 5 = 45 cm2
Area of rectangular field = 17 × 5    = 85 cm2
Area of remaining part = 85 – 45 = 40 cm2

What is the perimeter of regular hexagon having each side 6.5 cm?
  • a)
    39 cm
  • b)
    38 cm
  • c)
    42 cm
  • d)
    46 cm 
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Aaditya Chawla answered
To find the perimeter of a regular hexagon, we need to know the length of one side. In this case, the length of each side is given as 6.5 cm.

Perimeter of a Hexagon:
A regular hexagon has six equal sides. The perimeter of a regular hexagon is calculated by multiplying the length of one side by 6.

Perimeter = Length of one side × 6

Given that the length of one side is 6.5 cm, we can substitute this value into the formula to find the perimeter.

Perimeter = 6.5 cm × 6

Calculating the Perimeter:
To calculate the perimeter, we can multiply 6.5 cm by 6.

Perimeter = 6.5 cm × 6
Perimeter = 39 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the regular hexagon with each side measuring 6.5 cm is 39 cm.
