A nursery school play ground is \(160 \mathrm{~m}\) long and \(80 \mathrm{~m}\) wide. In it \(80 \mathrm{~m} \times 80 \mathrm{~m}\) is kept for swings and in the remaining portion, there is \(1.5 \mathrm{~m}\) wide path parallel to its width and parallel to its remaining length as shown in Figure below. The remaining area is covered by grass. Find the area covered by grass.
Area of the school playground is \(160 \mathrm{~m} \times 80 \mathrm{~m}=12800 \mathrm{~m}^2\)
Area kept for swings \(=80 \mathrm{~m} \times 80 \mathrm{~m}=6400 \mathrm{~m}^2\)
Area of path parallel to the width of playground
\(
=80 \mathrm{~m} \times 1.5 \mathrm{~m}=120 \mathrm{~m}^2
\)
Area of path parallel to the remaining length of
playground
\(
=80 \mathrm{~m} \times 1.5 \mathrm{~m}=120 \mathrm{~m}^2 .
\)
Area common to both paths \(=1.5 \mathrm{~m} \times 1.5 \mathrm{~m}=2.25 \mathrm{~m}^2\).
[since it is taken twice for measurement it is to be subtracted from the area of paths]
Total area covered by both the paths
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =(120+120-2.25) \mathrm{m}^2 \\
& =237.75 \mathrm{~m}^2 .
\end{aligned}
\)
Area covered by grass = Area of school playground \(–\) (Area
kept for swings + Area covered by paths)
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =12800 \mathrm{~m}^2-[6400+237.75] \mathrm{m}^2 \\
& =(12800-6637.75) \mathrm{m}^2 \\

In Figure below, \(\mathrm{ABCD}\) is a parallelogram, in which \(\mathrm{AB}=8 \mathrm{~cm}, \mathrm{AD}=6 \mathrm{~cm}\) and altitude \(\mathrm{AE}=4 \mathrm{~cm}\). Find the altitude corresponding to side \(\mathrm{AD}\).
Area of parallelogram \(\mathrm{ABCD}=\mathrm{AB} \times \mathrm{AE}=8 \times 4 \mathrm{~cm}^2\) \(=32 \mathrm{~cm}^2\)
Let altitude corresponding to \(\mathrm{AD}\) be \(h\). Then,
\(
\begin{array}{ll}
& h \times \mathrm{AD}=32 \\
\text { or } & h \times 6=32 \\
\text { or } & h=\frac{32}{6}=\frac{16}{3}
\end{array}
\)
Thus, altitude corresponding to \(\mathrm{AD}\) is \(\frac{16}{3} \mathrm{~cm}\).
A rectangular-shaped swimming pool with dimensions \(30 \mathrm{~m} \times 20 \mathrm{~m}\) has \(5 \mathrm{~m}\) wide cemented path along its length and \(8 \mathrm{~m}\) wide path along its width (as shown in Figure below). Find the cost of cementing the path at the rate of Rs 200 per \(\mathrm{m}^2\).
Area covered by swimming pool \(=30 \mathrm{~m} \times 20 \mathrm{~m}=600 \mathrm{~m}^2\).
Length of outer rectangle \(=(30+8+8) \mathrm{m}=46 \mathrm{~m}\)
and its breadth \(=(20+5+5) m=30 \mathrm{~m}\)
So, the area of outer rectangle
\(
=46 \mathrm{~m} \times 30 \mathrm{~m}=1380 \mathrm{~m}^2 \text {. }
\)
Area of cemented path \(=\)
Area of outer rectangle – Area of swimming pool
\(
=(1380-600) \mathrm{m}^2=780 \mathrm{~m}^2 .
\)
Cost of cementing \(1 \mathrm{~m}^2\) path \(=₹ 200\)
So, total cost of cementing the path
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =₹ 780 \times 200 \\
& =₹ 156000
\end{aligned}
\)
The Circumference of a circle is 33 cm. Find its area.
Let the radius of the circle be \(r\). Then, \(\quad 2 \pi r=33\)
i.e., \(\quad r=\frac{33}{2 \pi}=\frac{33}{2} \times \frac{7}{22}=\frac{21}{4}\)
Thus, radius is \(\frac{21}{4} \mathrm{~cm}\)
So, area of the circle \(=\pi r^2=\frac{22}{7} \cdot \frac{21}{4} \cdot \frac{21}{4}=\frac{693}{8}\)
Thus, area of the circle is \(\frac{693}{8} \mathrm{~cm}^2\).
Rectangle \(\mathrm{ABCD}\) is formed in a circle as shown in Figure below. If AE \(=8 \mathrm{~cm}\) and \(\mathrm{AD}=5 \mathrm{~cm}\), find the perimeter of the rectangle.
\(
\mathrm{DE}=\mathrm{EA}+\mathrm{AD}=(8+5) \mathrm{cm}=13 \mathrm{~cm}
\)
\(\mathrm{DE}\) is the radius of the circle.
Also, DB is the radius of the circle.
Next, AC \(=\) DB [Since diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length]
Therefore, \(\mathrm{AC}=13 \mathrm{~cm}\).
From \(\triangle \mathrm{ADC}, \mathrm{DC}^2=\mathrm{AC}^2-\mathrm{AD}^2=13^2-5^2=169-25=\) \(144=12^2\)
So, \(\mathrm{DC}=12\)
Thus, length of DC is \(12 \mathrm{~cm}\).
Hence, perimeter of the rectangle ABCD
\(=2(12+5) \mathrm{cm}=34 \mathrm{~cm}\)

It is given that
Area of rectangle \(=36\) unit squares
We know that
\(
36=6 \times 6
\)
It can be written as
\(
36=2 \times 3 \times 2 \times 3
\)
So we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& 36=2^2 \times 3^2 \\
& 36=4 \times 9
\end{aligned}
\)
Here the sides of a rectangle are \(4 \mathrm{~cm}\) and \(9 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Perimeter \(=2(l+b)\)
Substituting the values
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =2(4+9) \\
& =2(13) \\
& =26 \text { units }
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 26 units.

It is given that
Side of a square \(=22 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Perimeter of square and circumference of circle are equal as the length of wire is same. Based on the question
Perimeter of square \(=\) Circumference of circle
\(4 \times\) side \(=2 \pi r\)
We know that \(\pi=22 / 7\)
Substituting the values
\(
4 \times 22=2 \times 22 / 7 \times r
\)
By further calculation
\(
\begin{aligned}
& r=(4 \times 22 \times 7) /(2 \times 22) \\
& r=14 \mathrm{~cm}
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, its radius is \(14 \mathrm{~cm}\).
Area of a rectangle and the area of a circle are equal. If the dimensions of the rectangle are 14cm × 11 cm, then radius of the circle is
It is given that
Dimensions of the rectangle \(=14 \times 11 \mathrm{~cm}\)
From the question
Area of rectangle \(=\) Area of circle
\(1 \times b=\pi r^2\)
Substituting the values
\(
14 \times 11=22 / 7 \times r^2
\)
By further calculation
\(
\begin{aligned}
& r^2=(14 \times 11 \times 7) / 22 \\
& r^2=49 \\
& r=7 \mathrm{~cm}
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, the radius of the circle is \(7 \mathrm{~cm}\).

From the figure
Length of rectangle \(=5 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Breadth of rectangle \(=3+1=4 \mathrm{~cm}\)
We know that

Substituting the values
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =1 / 2 \times(5 \times 4) \\
& =1 / 2 \times 20
\end{aligned}
\)
So we get
\(
=10 \mathrm{~cm}^2
\)
Therefore, the area of the shaded portion is \(10 \mathrm{~cm}^2\).

We know that
Area of triangle \(=1 / 2 \times b \times h\)
From the figure
Area of triangle \(=1 / 2 \times \mathrm{NO} \times \mathrm{OQ}\)

We know that
Area of \(\triangle M N O:\) Area of parallelogram \(M N O P=1 / 2 \times b \times h: b \times h\)
It can be written as
\(
=1 / 2 \times N O \times O Q: M P \times O Q
\)
So we get
\(
\begin{aligned}
& =1 / 2 \times N O: N O[\text { As } N O=M P] \\
& =1: 2
\end{aligned}
\)
Therefore, the ratio is \(1: 2\)

Substituting the values
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{LR}^2=144-64 \\
& \mathrm{LR}^2=80 \\
& \mathrm{LR}=\sqrt{ } 80=4 \sqrt{5} \mathrm{~cm}

\)
Here
\(
\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{LR}=\mathrm{LQ}+\mathrm{QR} \\
& \mathrm{LQ}=\mathrm{LR}-\mathrm{QR}

Substituting the values \(\begin{aligned}& A_2=1 / 2 \times(4 \sqrt{5}-6) \times 8 \\& A 2=16 \sqrt{5}-24 \mathrm{~cm}^2\end{aligned}\)
We know that
Area of triangle PLR = Area of triangle \(\mathrm{PLQ}+\) Area of triangle PQR
Substituting the values \(16 \sqrt{5}=16 \sqrt{5}-24+\) Area of triangle PQR
Area of triangle \(\mathrm{PQR}=24 \mathrm{~cm}^2\)

\(30=1 / 2 \times 5 \times \&\) height
Height \(=30(2) / 5\)
Height \(=6(2)\)
Height \(=12 \mathrm{~cm}\)

\(
\begin{aligned}

\end{aligned}
\)
We know, \(1 \mathrm{~m}=100 \mathrm{~cm}\)
Area to be polished in \(\mathrm{m}^2=24998.82 / 10000\) \(=2.4999 \mathrm{~m}^2\)
Cost of polishing \(1 \mathrm{~m}^2=₹ 200\)
