Area Problems
The area of a trapezium is 384 sq.cm. If its parallel sides in ratio 3 : 5 and the perpendicular distance between them be 12 cm. The smaller of parallel sides is?
Let the parallel sides be 3a and 5a.So Area of trapezium = 1/2 x sum of parallel side x perpendicular distance between them.? 1/2 (3a +5a) x 12 = 384? 8a = 64? a =8? Smaller side = 3x = 3 x 8 = 24 cm.
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
Area of the room =(544 x 374) cm2size of largest square tile = H.C.F. of 544 & 374 = 34 cm Area of 1 tile = (34 x 34) cm2? Least number of tiles required = (544 x 374) / (34 x 34) = 176
