Area Problems
A person observed that he required 30 s time to cross a circular ground along its diameter than to cover it once along the boundary. If his speed was 30m/min, than the radius of the circular ground is (take ? = 22/7)
Let the radius of circular field = r m.Speed of person in m/s = 30/60 = 1/2m/sAccording to the question,[(2?r) /(1/2)] - [(2r)/(1/2)] = 30? 4?r - 4r = 30? [4 x (22/7) - 4]r =30? (125 - 4)r = 30 ? (8.5)r = 30? r = 30/8.5 = 3.5 m
We have: (l - b) = 23 and 2(l + b) = 206 or (l + b) = 103. Solving the two equations, we get: l = 63 and b = 40. ∴ Area = (l x b) = (63 x 40) m2 = 2520 m2
Area of the square field = 1 hectare = 10000 m2Side of the square = ? 10000 m = 100 mSide of another square field = 100 + 1 = 101 m? Required difference of area = [(101)2 - (100)2] m2=[(101 + 100 ) (101 - 100) ] m2= 201 m2
