Area Problems
A room 5m 55cm long and 3m 74cm broad is to be paved with square tiles.Find the least number of square tiles required to cover the floor?
Area of the room=(544 * 374) size of largest square tile= H.C.F of 544 & 374 = 34 cm Area of 1 tile = (34 x 34) c m 2 Number of tiles required== [(544 x 374) / (34 x 34)] = 176
Given that, l = 2b [Here l = length and b = breadth]Decrease in length = Half of the 10 cm = 10/2 = 5 cmIncrease in breadth = Half of the 10 cm = 10/2 = 5 cm Increase in the area = (70 + 5) = 75 sq cm According to the question, (l - 5) (b + 5) = lb + 75 ? (2b - 5) (b + 5) = 2b2 + 75 [since l = 2b]? 5b - 25 = 75 ? 5b = 100? b = 100/ 5 = 20? l = 2b = 2 x 20 = 40 cm
Let the side of the square = y cmThen, breadth of the rectangle = 3y/2 cm ? Area of rectangle = (40 x 3y/2) cm2= 60y cm2? 60y = 3y2? y = 20Hence, the side of the square = 20 cm
In a triangleSum of two sides is always greater than 3rd side i.e., x < 25 + 15 = 40 .....(i)Difference of two sides is always less than 3rd side i.e., 25 - 15 = 10 < x ...(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii) , we get 10 < x < 40
