MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 2

P and Q are running on the circumference of two concentric circles, the radius of larger circle is half of the circumference of inner circle. P runs on larger and Q on smaller circle and both complete a round in same time. If both of them run on the larger circle P will beat Q by 75m when they run in the same direction, what is the
circumference of the larger circle?

Detailed Solution for MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 2

Let the radius of inner circle = R
Circumference of Inner circle = 2πR
Radius of larger circle = πR
Circumference of larger circle = 2π (πR)
As both of them complete 1 round in same time, the ratio of their speeds will be equal to the ratio of their distance travelled.

When both of them run on the larger track the difference in their distance travelled will be (22 – 7) =
15 units.
15 units = 75m
1unit = 5m
P completes one round. So 1 round = 22units
Total distance = 22 × 5 = 110m
Hence, option C is correct.

Detailed Solution for MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 7

Let the width of the rectangle = x cm
Then, 300% of x = 51

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width) = 2 × (51 + 17) = 136 cm
Perimeter of the square = (136 + 8) = 144 cm
The sides of the square = 144/4 = 36 cm
The area of the square field without street = (36)2 sq. cm = 1296 sq. cm
The area of the square field with street = (36 + 20)2 sq. cm = 3136 sq. cm
The area of the street = 3136 – 1296 = 1840 sq. cm
The total cost of constructing the street = 1840 x 25 = Rs. 46,000
Hence, option C is correct.

Hence, option D is correct.

MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 11

The perimeter of two squares fields are 480 cm and 720 cm respectively. The area of a rectangular field is equal to the difference between the areas of these two square fields. The breadth of the rectangular field is 60 cm. How much money the owner of the rectangular field will spend for putting a fence around it at the rate of Rs. 5 per cm?

Detailed Solution for MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 11

Sides of the square = 120 cm and 180 cm respectively [ As the perimeter is given we get it by dividing
the perimeter by 4]
The difference between the area of squares = (180 +120) × (180 – 120) = 300 × 60
= area of the rectangular field
The area of a rectangular field = length × breadth = 60 × length = 300 × 60
Length of the rectangle = 300 cm
The perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + breadth) = 2(300 + 60) = 720 cm
The total cost of putting a fence around it = 720 × 5 = Rs. 3600
Hence, option C is correct.

MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 13

The ratio of length to breadth of a rectangular shaped room is 3 : 4. The length of longest pole that can be placed on the floor of the room is 25 cm. What will be the total cost of cementing the floor of the room at the rate of Rs. 5 per sq. cm?

Detailed Solution for MCQ: Area - 1 - Question 13

The length of longest pole that can be placed on the floor of room is nothing but the diagonal of the
rectangle
Therefore, by Pythagorean theorem,
(3x)2 + (4x)2 = 252
Where 3x is the length of the room and 5x is the breadth of the room
9x2 + 16x2 = 25x2 = 625
By solving, x = 5 cm
The area of the floor of the room = 3x x 4x = 12 x 5x 5 = 300 sq. cm
The total cost of cementing the floor of the room = 5 x 300 = Rs. 1500
Hence, option B is correct.
