Let original length = x and original breadth = y. Original area = xy. New length = x . 2 New breadth = 3y. New area = ❨ x x 3y ❩ = 3 xy. 2 2 ∴ Increase % = ❨ 1 xy x 1 x 100 ❩% = 50%
Let the diagonal of one square be (2d) cmThen, diagonal of another square = d cm? Area of first square = [ 1/2 x (2d)2] cm2Area of second square = (1/2 x d2) cm2? Ratio of area = (2d)2/ d2= 4/1 = 4: 1
Circular piece is 4 x 11 = 44 cm long, Then Circumference of circle is given by, 44 = pi x D, where D is the diameter D = 44 / pi Take pi = 22 / 7, then D = 44 / (22/7) = (44 x 7) / 22 D = 14 cm.
