Q:

If the length of the diagonal of a square is 20cm,then its perimeter must be

a. 402cm     b. 302cm    c. 10cm    d. 152cm

A) a B) b
C) c D) d

Answer:   A) a



Explanation:

We know that d=√2s 

Given diagonal = 20 cm 

=> s = 20/2 cm

Therefore, perimeter of the square is 4s = 4 x 20/2 = 402   cm.

Q:

Find the ratio of the areas of the incircle and circumcircle of a square.

A) 1:1 B) 1:2
C) 1:3 D) 1:4
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1:2

Explanation:

Let the side of the square be x. Then, its diagonal = 2x2=2x 

Radius of incircle = x2 

Radius of circum circle= 2×x2=x2 

Required ratio = πx24:πx22=14:12=1:2

Q:

Two concentric circles form a ring. The inner and outer circumferences of ring are  5187m and 3527 m respectively. Find the width of the ring.

A) 4 B) 5
C) 6 D) 7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 4

Explanation:

Let the inner and outer radii be r and R metres.

 

Then  2πR=3527=>R=3527*722*12=8m 

 

 2πR=5287=>R=5287*722*12=12m

 

=> Width of the ring = (R - r) = (12 - 8) m = 4 m.

C) 33 D) 84
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 84

Explanation:

Let inner radius be r metres. Then, 2πr = 440 ; r = 440×744= 70 m.

Radius of outer circle = (70 + 14) m = 84 m.

Q:

The diameter of the driving wheel of a bus is 140 cm. How many revolution, per minute must the wheel make in order to keep a speed of 66 kmph ?

A) 150 B) 250
C) 350 D) 550
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 250

Explanation:

Circumference = No.of revolutions * Distance covered

 

Distance to be covered in 1 min. = (66 X1000)/60 m = 1100 m.
Circumference of the wheel = 2 x (22/7) x 0.70 m = 4.4 m.
Number of revolutions per min. =(1100/4.4) = 250.

Q:

The area of a circular field is 13.86 hectares. Find the cost of fencing it at the rate of Rs. 4.40 per metre.

A) 2808 B) 3808
C) 4808 D) 5808
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 5808

Explanation:

Area = (13.86 x 10000) sq.m = 138600 sq.m

 

πR2=138600R2=138600×722R=210m 

 

Circumference = 2πR2=2×227×210=1320m 

 

Cost of fencing = Rs. (1320 x 4.40) = Rs. 5808.

Q:

The difference between two parallel sides of a trapezium is 4 cm. perpendicular distance between them is 19 cm. If the area of the trapezium is 475 find the lengths of the parallel sides.

A) 27 and 23 B) 24 and 23
C) 25 and 23 D) 22 and 23
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 27 and 23

Explanation:

Let the two parallel sides of the trapezium be a cm and b cm. 

Then, a - b = 4 

And, 12×a+b×19=475=>a+b=50 

Solving (i) and (ii), we get: a = 27, b = 23. 

So, the two parallel sides are 27 cm and 23 cm.
