Q:

A took 15 seconds to cross a rectangular field diagonally walking at the rate of 52 m/min and B took the same time to cross the same field along its sides walking at the rate of 68m/min. The area of the field is?

A) 50	B) 60
C) 70	D) 80

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60

Explanation:

length of the diagonal = 52 x (15/60) =13m

sum of length and breadth = 68 x (15/60) = 17m

$(\sqrt{l^{2} + b^{2}}) = 13 o r l + b = 17$

area =lb = 1/2[(2lb)] = 1/2[(l+b)² - (l²+b²)] = 1/2[17² -169]

=1/2 x 120 = 60 sq.m

Q:

A rectangular paper when folded into two congruent parts had a perimeter of 34cm foer each part folded along one set of sides and the same is 38cm. When folded along the other set of sides. What is the area of the paper?

A) 140	B) 150
C) 160	D) 170

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 140

Explanation:

when folded along the breadth
we have 2(l/2 +b) = 34 or l+2b = 34...........(1)
when folded along the length, we have 2(l+b/2)=38 or 2l+b =38.....(2)
from 1 &2 we get l=14 and b=10
Area of the paper = 14*10 = 140 sq cm

Q:

Wheels of diameters 7cm and 14cm start rolling simultaneously from x & y which are 1980 cm apart towards each other in opposite directions. Both of them make the same number of revolutions per second. If both of them meet after 10seconds.The speed of the smaller wheel is

A) 22m/s	B) 33m/s
C) 44m/s	D) 55m/s

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 22m/s

Explanation:

let each wheel make x revolutions per sec. Then $[(2 π * \frac{7}{2} * x) + (2 π * 7 * x)] * 10 = 1980$ $(2 * \frac{22}{7} * \frac{7}{2} * x) + (2 * \frac{22}{7} * \frac{7}{2} * x) = 198$

$66 x = 198$

distance moved by smaller wheel in 3 revolutions

= $2 * \frac{22}{7} * \frac{7}{2} * 3 = 66 c m$

speed of smaller wheel = $\frac{66}{3}$ m/s = 22m/s

Q:

If the diagonals of a rhombus are 24cm and 10cm the area and the perimeter of the rhombus are respectively.

A) 10	B) 11
C) 12	D) 13

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 13

Explanation:

Area = $\frac{1}{2} * d i a g o n a l 1 * \frac{1}{2} d i a g o n a l 2$ = $\frac{1}{2} * 24 * 10$ sq.cm

$\frac{1}{2} * d a i g o n a l 1 = \frac{1}{2} * 24 = 12 c m$

$\frac{1}{2} * d i a g o n a l 2 = \frac{1}{2} * 10 = 5 c m$

side of a rhombus = (12)² + (5)² = 169 => AB = 13cm

Q:

If a parallelogram with area p, a triangle with area R and a triangle with area T are all constructed on the same base and all have the same altitude, then

A) P=R	B) P=A
C) P=A/2	D) P=2R

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) P=R

Explanation:

let each have base = b and height = h
then p = b*h, R = b*h and T = (1/2) * b*h
so P = R, P = 2T and T = (1/2)*R are all correct statements

Q:

A parallelogram has sides 30m and 14m and one of its diagonals is 40m long. Then its area is

A) 136	B) 236
C) 336	D) 436

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 336

Explanation:

let ABCD be the given parallelogram

area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x (area of triangle ABC)

now a = 30m, b = 14m and c = 40m

s=1/2 x (30+14+40) = 42

Area of triangle ABC = $\sqrt{[s (s - a) (s - b) (s - c)]}$

= $\sqrt{[42 (12) (28) (2)]}$ = 168sq m

area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x 168 = 336 sq m
