Let ABCD is a Room of length 5.5 m & width 4 m.
And PQRS is outline of verandah of width = 2.25 m.
Area of the rectangular room ABCD = leghth * width
= (5.5 * 4) m^2
= 22.0 m^2
Area of the rectangle PQRS = leghth * width
=[ {5.5 + (2*2.25)} * {4 + (2*2.25)} ] m^2
= {( 5.5 + 4.5) * (4 + 4.5)} m^2
= {( 10.0 ) * ( 8.5 )} m^2
= 85.0 m^2
(i) Area of the verandah = Area of PQRS - Area of ABCD
= (85 - 22) m^2
= 63 m^2
(ii) Cost of cementing the verandah /m^2 = ₹ 200
Cost of cementing the verandah 63 m^2 = 63*200
= ₹ 12,600
A verandah of width 2.25 m is constructed all along outside a room whi...
Area of Verandah:
- Length of the room = 5.5 m
- Width of the room = 4 m
- Width of the verandah = 2.25 m
To find the area of the verandah, we need to calculate the area of the larger rectangle formed by adding the verandah to the room and subtracting the area of the room itself.
Area of the larger rectangle = (5.5 + 2 * 2.25) * (4 + 2 * 2.25) = 11 * 8.5 = 93.5 sq.m
Area of the room = 5.5 * 4 = 22 sq.m
Area of the verandah = Area of the larger rectangle - Area of the room = 93.5 - 22 = 71.5 sq.m
Therefore, the area of the verandah is 71.5 sq.m.
Cost of Cementing:
- Rate of cementing = Rs. 200 per sq.m
To find the cost of cementing the floor of the verandah, we multiply the area of the verandah by the rate of cementing per sq.m.
Cost of cementing the verandah = Area of verandah * Rate of cementing = 71.5 * 200 = Rs. 14,300
Therefore, the cost of cementing the floor of the verandah at the rate of Rs. 200 per sq.m would be Rs. 14,300.
