Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 1

Anil grows tomatoes in his backyard which is in the shape of a square. Each tomato takes 1 cm2 in his backyard. This year, he has been able to grow 131 more tomatoes than last year. The shape of the backyard remained a square. How many tomatoes did Anil produce this year?

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 1

Let the area of backyard be x2 this year and y2 last year.

X2- Y2 = 131
(X+Y) (X-Y) = 131

Now, 131 is a prime number (a unique one too. Check out its properties on Google). Also, always identify the prime number given in a question. Might be helpful in cracking the solution.

⇒ (X+Y) (X-Y) = 131 x 1
⇒ X+Y = 131
⇒ X-Y = 1
⇒ 2X = 132
⇒ X = 66 and Y = 65

∴ Number of tomatoes produced this year = 662 = 4356

Choice (C) is therefore, the correct answer.
Correct Answer: 4356

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 2

ABCD is a square drawn inside a square PTRS of sides 4 cm by joining midpoints of the sides PR, PT, TS, SR. Another square is drawn inside ABCD similarly. This process is repeated infinite number of times. Find the sum of all the squares. 

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 2




If we write the infinite series of area of squares:
= 4+ (2√2)2 + 22 + ……. infinite

Since it is a decreasing series sum of infinite terms can be approximated.
= 16 + 8 + 4 +………infinite

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 3

PQRST is a pentagon in which all the interior angles are unequal. A circle of radius ‘r’ is inscribed in each of the vertices. Find the area of portion of circles falling inside the pentagon. 

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 3

Since neither angles nor sides are given in the question, immediately the sum of angles of pentagon should come in mind. To use it,

We know the area of the sectors of a circle is given as:

Note: The above concept is applicable for a polygon of n sides.

Choice (B) is therefore, the correct answer.
Correct Answer: 1.5πr2

 

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 4

Raj stands in a corner of his square farm. Angle of elevation of a scarecrow placed in diagonally opposite corner is 60°. He starts walking backwards in a straight line and after 80ft he realizes that angle of elevation of the scarecrow now is 30°. What is area of the field?

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 4

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 5

The area of the circle is 2464 cm2 and the ratio of the breadth of the rectangle to radius of the circle is 6:7. If the circumference of the circle is equal to the perimeter of the rectangle, then what is the area of the rectangle.

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 5

Area of the circle=πr2

2464 = 22/7 * r2

Radius of the circle=28 cm

Circumference of the circle=2 * π* r =2 * 22/7 * 28 

= 176 cm

Breadth of the rectangle=6/7 * 28=24 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle=2 * (l + b)

176 = 2 * (l + 24)

Length of the rectangle = 64 cm

Area of the rectangle = l * b = 24 * 64 = 1536 cm2 

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 6

A rectangular paper of width 7 cm is rolled along its width and a cylinder of radius 20 cm is formed. Find the volume of the cylinder. 

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 6
Given  : A rectangular paper of width 14 cm is rolled along its width to form a cylinder.

Height of cylinder =  h  =  7 cm = width of the rectangular paper

And
Radius of cylinder ( Given ) =  r  = 20 cm

And
we know Volume of cylinder  = π r^2 h , So

Volume of our given cylinder = 22/7 x 20 x 20 x 7  = 8800 cm^3    
Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 7

Top surface of a raised platform is in the shape of regular octagon as shown in the figure. Find the area of the octagonal surface.

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 7

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 8

The diagonal of a quadrilateral shaped field is 24 m and perpendicular dropped on it from the remaining opposite vertices are 6 m and 12 m. Find the area of the field.

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 8

area=1/2×d×(h1+h2)
=1/2×24×(12+6)
=12(18)
=216 m2

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 9

A cube is inscribed in a hemisphere of radius R, such that four of its vertices lie on the base of the hemisphere and the other four touch the hemispherical surface of the half-sphere. What is the volume of the cube?

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 9

Let ABCDEFGH be the cube of side a and O be the centre of the hemisphere.

AC = √2 a

OD = OC = R
Let P be the mid-point of AC

OP = a

Now in  Δ AOC

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 10

The maximum distance between two points of the unit cube is

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 10

The distance from any vertex at the base of the cube to the vertex that is perpendicular along height to the diametrically opposite vertex is required.
We have to calculate DF.

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 11

The perimeter of a triangle is 28 cm and the inradius of the triangle is 2.5 cm. What is the area of the triangle?

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 11

Area of a triangle = r * s

Where r is the inradius and s is the semi perimeter of the triangle.

Area of triangle = 2.5 * 28/2 = 35 cm2

Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 12

 An order was placed for the supply of a carpet whose breadth was 6 m and length was 1.44 times the breadth. What be the cost of a carpet whose length and breadth are 40% more and 25% more respectively than the first carpet. Given that the ratio of carpet is Rs. 45 per sq m?

Detailed Solution for Test: Area & Perimeter - 1 - Question 12

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
