Q:

If the diagonal of a rectangle is 17cm long and its perimeter is 46 cm. Find the area of the rectangle.

A) 110	B) 120
C) 130	D) 140

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 120

Explanation:

let length = x and breadth = y then

2(x+y) = 46 => x+y = 23

x²+y² = 17² = 289

now (x+y)² = 23²

=> x²+y²+2xy= 529

=> 289+ 2xy = 529

=> xy = 120

area = xy = 120 sq.cm

Q:

If the radius of a circle is decreased by 50% , find the percentage decrease in its area.

A) 75%	B) 65%
C) 35%	D) 25%

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 75%

Explanation:

let original radius = r and new radius = (50/100) r = r/2

original area = ${πr}^{2}$ and new area = $π {(r / 2)}^{2}$

decrease in area = $3 {πr}^{2} / 4$ * $\frac{1}{{πr}^{2}}$ *100 = 75%

Q:

If each side of a square is increased by 25%, find the percentage change in its area?

A) 65.25	B) 56.25
C) 65	D) 56

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 56.25

Explanation:

let each side of the square be a , then area = $a^{2}$

As given that The side is increased by 25%, then

New side = 125a/100 = 5a/4

New area = ${(\frac{5 a}{4})}^{2}$

Increased area= $\frac{25 a^{2}}{16} - a^{2}$

Increase %= $\frac{[9 a^{2} / 16]}{a^{2}} * 100$ % = 56.25%

Q:

The length of a rectangle is twice its breadth if its length is decreased by 5cm and breadth is increased by 5cm, the area of the rectangle is increased by 75 sq cm. Find the length of the rectangle.

A) 30	B) 40
C) 50	D) 60

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40

Explanation:

let length = 2x and breadth = x then
(2x-5) (x+5) = (2x * x)+75
5x-25 = 75 => x=20
length of the rectangle = 40 cm

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 120

Explanation:

Other side = [(17 x 17) - (15 x 15)] = (289 - 225) = 8m
Area = 15 x 8 =120 sq. m

Q:

If the radius of a circle is decreased by 50%, find the percentage decrease in its area.

A) 55%	B) 65%
C) 75%	D) 85%

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 75%

Explanation:

Let original radius = R.

New radius = $\frac{50}{100} R$ = $\frac{50}{100} R$

Original area = $\frac{R}{2}$ and new area = ${πR}^{2}$

$\frac{3 {πR}^{2}}{4} * \frac{1}{{πR}^{2}} * 100$

Decrease in area = $π {(\frac{R}{2})}^{2} = \frac{{πR}^{2}}{4}$ = 75%
