Plane Figures Question 2:

The cost of painting a rectangular wall at the rate of Rs.75/square metre is Rs.6825. The length of rectangular wall is equal to the length of a square wall whose area is 196 square metre. Find the breadth of the rectangular wall.

  1. 6.5 m
  2. 7.5 m
  3. 5.5 m
  4. 2.5 m
  5. 6 m

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 6.5 m

Plane Figures Question 2 Detailed Solution

Given:

Painting rate = Rs.75/m²

Total painting cost = Rs.6825

Area of square wall = 196 m²

Length of rectangular wall = side of square wall

Formula used:

Area = Total Cost / Rate

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

Side of square = √Area

Calculations:

Area of rectangular wall = 6825 / 75 = 91 m²

Side of square wall = √196 = 14 m ⇒ Length of rectangular wall = 14 m

Now, 14 × Breadth = 91

⇒ Breadth = 91 / 14 = 6.5 m

∴ The breadth of the rectangular wall is 6.5 metres.

Plane Figures Question 3:

Perimeter of a rectangular field is equal to the perimeter of a triangular field whose sides are in the ratio 3:2:4 respectively. lf area of rectangular field is 500 m2 and sides are in the ratio 5:4 respectively, then calculate the longer side of the triangular field.

  1. 56
  2. 48
  3. 40
  4. 44
  5. 52

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 40

Plane Figures Question 3 Detailed Solution

Calculation:

Let the sides of the rectangular field be 5x and 4x. The area of the rectangle is:

Area = 5x × 4x = 500

⇒ 20x² = 500

⇒ x² = 25

⇒ x = 5.

Thus, the length = 5x = 25 m, and the breadth = 4x = 20 m.

The perimeter of the rectangular field = 2 × (25 + 20) = 90 m.

The sides of the triangular field are in the ratio 3 : 2 : 4. Let the sides be 3y, 2y, and 4y.

The perimeter of the triangle is: 3y + 2y + 4y = 9y.

Since the perimeter is 90 m, we have: 9y = 90 ⇒ y = 10.

The longest side of the triangle is: 4y = 4 × 10 = 40 m.

∴ The longer side of the triangular field is 40 meters.

Plane Figures Question 4:

The parallel sides of a trapezium are 48 cm and 20 cm. Its non-parallel sides are 26 cm and 30 cm. What is the area (in cm²) of the trapezium ?

  1. 680
  2. 748
  3. 816
  4. 850

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 816

Plane Figures Question 4 Detailed Solution

Given:

Parallel sides: a = 48 cm, b = 20 cm

Non-parallel sides: c = 26 cm, d = 30 cm

Formula used:

Area of trapezium = ½ × (a + b) × height (h)

Height (h) found using: h = √(c² - m²), where m = ((a - b)² + c² - d²) / (2 × (a - b))

Calculations:

a - b = 48 - 20 = 28

m = [28² + 26² - 30²] / (2 × 28)

m = (784 + 676 - 900) / 56 = (560) / 56 = 10

h = √(26² - 10²) = √(676 - 100) = √576 = 24 cm

Area = ½ × (48 + 20) × 24 = ½ × 68 × 24 = 34 × 24 = 816 cm²

∴ Area of the trapezium = 816 cm².

Plane Figures Question 5:

A circle is inscribed in a triangle with sides 28 cm, 45 cm and 53 cm. What is the area of the triangle excluding the area of the circle? (Use )

  1. 300 cm²
  2. 306 cm²
  3. 316 cm²
  4. 320 cm²

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 316 cm²

Plane Figures Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given:

Triangle sides: a = 28 cm, b = 45 cm, c = 53 cm

π = 3.14

Formula used:

Area of triangle = √(s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)), where s = semi-perimeter = (a + b + c)/2

Area of circle = π × r2, where r = inradius = Area of triangle / s

Area excluding circle = Area of triangle - Area of circle

qImage683980f8138d854a3e2a1911

Calculations:

s = (28 + 45 + 53)/2

⇒ s = 63 cm

Area of triangle = √(s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c))

⇒ Area of triangle = √(63 × (63 - 28) × (63 - 45) × (63 - 53))

⇒ Area of triangle = √(63 × 35 × 18 × 10)

⇒ Area of triangle = √396900

⇒ Area of triangle = 630 cm2

Inradius (r) = Area of triangle / s

⇒ r = 630 / 63

⇒ r = 10 cm

Area of circle = π × r2

⇒ Area of circle = 3.14 × 102

⇒ Area of circle = 314 cm2

Area excluding circle = Area of triangle - Area of circle

⇒ Area excluding circle = 630 - 314

⇒ Area excluding circle = 316 cm2

∴ The correct answer is option (3).

Given:

Diameter of semicircle = 14√2 cm

Radius = 14√2/2 = 7√2 cm

Total no. of chords = 6

Concept:

Since the chords are equal in length, they will subtend equal angles at the centre. Calculate the area of one sector and subtract the area of the isosceles triangle formed by a chord and radius, then multiply the result by 6 to get the desired result.

Formula used:

Area of sector = (θ/360°) × πr2

Area of triangle = 1/2 × a × b × Sin θ

Calculation:

F4 Aashish S 21-12-2020 Swati D8

The angle subtended by each chord = 180°/no. of chord

⇒ 180°/6

⇒ 30°

Area of sector AOB = (30°/360°) × (22/7) × 7√2 × 7√2

⇒ (1/12) × 22 × 7 × 2

⇒ (77/3) cm2

Area of triangle AOB = 1/2 × a × b × Sin θ

⇒ 1/2 × 7√2 × 7√2 × Sin 30°

⇒ 1/2 × 7√2 × 7√2 × 1/2

⇒ 49/2 cm2

∴ Area of shaded region = 6 × (Area of sector AOB - Area of triangle AOB)

⇒ 6 × [(77/3) – (49/2)]

⇒ 6 × [(154 – 147)/6]

⇒ 7 cm2

Area of shaded region is 7 cm2

Formula used

Area = length × breath

Calculation

8-July-2012 Morning 1 1 Hindi Images Q7

The garden EFGH is shown in the figure. Where EF = 220 meters & EH = 70 meters.

The width of the path is 4 meters.

Now the area of the path leaving the four colored corners

= [2 × (220 × 4)] + [2 × (70 × 4)]

= (1760 + 560) square meter

= 2320 square meters

Now, the area of 4 square colored corners:

4 × (4 × 4)

{∵ Side of each square = 4 meter}

= 64 square meter

The total area of the path = the area of the path leaving the four colored corners + square colored corners

⇒ Total area of the path = 2320 + 64 = 2384 square meter

∴ Option 4 is the correct answer.

The width of the path around a square field is 4.5 m and its area is 105.75 m2. Find the cost of fencing the field at the rate of Rs. 100 per meter.

  1. Rs. 275
  2. Rs. 550
  3. Rs. 600
  4. Rs. 400

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : Rs. 550

Plane Figures Question 8 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

The width of the path around a square field = 4.5 m

The area of the path = 105.75 m2

Formula used:

The perimeter of a square = 4 × Side

The area of a square = (Side)2

Calculation:

F2 SSC Pranali 13-6-22 Vikash kumar D6

Let, each side of the field = x

Then, each side with the path = x + 4.5 + 4.5 = x + 9

So, (x + 9)2 - x2 = 105.75

⇒ x2 + 18x + 81 - x2 = 105.75

⇒ 18x + 81 = 105.75

⇒ 18x = 105.75 - 81 = 24.75

⇒ x = 24.75/18 = 11/8

∴ Each side of the square field = 11/8 m

The perimterer = 4 × (11/8) = 11/2 m

So, the total cost of fencing = (11/2) × 100 = Rs. 550

∴ The cost of fencing of the field is Rs. 550

Shortcut TrickIn such types of questions, 

Area of path outside the Square is, 

⇒ (2a + 2w)2w = 105.75

here, a is a side of a square and w is width of a square

⇒ (2a + 9)9 = 105.75

⇒ 2a + 9 = 11.75

⇒ 2a = 2.75

Perimeter of a square = 4a

⇒ 2 × 2a = 2 × 2.75 = 5.50

costing of fencing = 5.50 × 100 = 550

∴ The cost of fencing of the field is Rs. 550

Given : 

Length of an arc of a circle is 4.5π.

Area of ​​the sector circumscribed by it is 27π cm2.

Formula Used : 

Area of sector = θ/360 × πr2

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

Calculation : 

F1 Railways Savita 31-5-24 D1

According to question,

⇒ 4.5π = θ/360 × 2πr 

⇒ 4.5 = θ/360 × 2r   -----------------(1)

⇒ 27π = θ/360 × πr2 

⇒ 27 = θ/360 × r2       ---------------(2)

Doing equation (1) ÷ (2)

⇒ 4.5/27 = 2r/πr2

⇒ 4.5/27 = 2/r

⇒ r = (27 × 2)/4.5

⇒ Diameter = 2r = 24

∴ The correct answer is 24.

Given:

The side of the square = 22 cm

Formula used:

The perimeter of the square = 4 × a    (Where a = Side of the square)

The circumference of the circle = 2 × π × r     (Where r = The radius of the circle)

Calculation:

Let us assume the radius of the circle be r

⇒ The perimeter of the square = 4 × 22 = 88 cm

⇒ The circumference of the circle = 2 × π ×  r

⇒ 88 = 2 × (22/7) × r

⇒ \(r = {{88\ \times\ 7 }\over {22\ \times \ 2}}\)

⇒ r = 14 cm

∴ The required result will be 14 cm.

  1. 2500
  2. 1500
  3. 5500
  4. 3500

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 1 : 2500

Plane Figures Question 12 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

Radius of the wheel of car = 14 cm

Speed of car = 132 km/hr

Formula Used:

Circumference of the wheel = \(2\pi r\) 

1 km = 1000 m

1m = 100 cm

1hr = 60 mins.

Calculation:

Distance covered by the wheel in one minute = \(\frac{132 \times 1000 \times 100}{60}\) = 220000 cm.

Circumference of the wheel = \(2\pi r\) = \(2\times \frac{22}{7} \times 14\) = 88 cm

∴ Distance covered by wheel in one revolution = 88 cm

∴ The number of revolutions in one minute = \(\frac{220000}{88}\) = 2500.

∴ Therefore the correct answer is 2500.

One side of a rhombus is 37 cm and its area is 840 cm2. Find the sum of the lengths of its diagonals.

  1. 84 cm
  2. 47 cm
  3. 42 cm
  4. 94 cm

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : 94 cm

Plane Figures Question 13 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF
Let P and Q be the lengths of diagonals of the rhombus,

Area of rhombus = Product of both diagonals/ 2,

⇒ 840 = P × Q /2,

⇒ P × Q = 1680,

Using Pythagorean Theorem we get,

⇒ (P/2)2 + (Q/2)2 = 372

⇒ P2 + Q2 = 1369 × 4

⇒ P2 + Q2 = 5476

Using perfect square formula we get,

⇒ (P + Q)2 = P2 + 2PQ + Q2

⇒ (P + Q)2 = 5476 + 2 × 1680

⇒ P + Q = 94

Hence option 4 is correct.

In a circle with centre O, chords PR and QS meet at the point T, when produced, and PQ is a diameter. If \(\angle\)ROS = 42º, then the measure of \(\angle\)PTQ is

  1. 58º
  2. 59º
  3. 69º
  4. 48º

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 69º

Plane Figures Question 14 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

ROS = 42º

Concept used:

The sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

Exterior angle = Sum of opposite interior angles

Angle made by an arc at the centre = 2 × Angle made by the same arc at any point on the circumference of the circle

Calculation:

F2 SSC Pranali 13-6-22 Vikash kumar D8

Join RQ and RS

According to the concept,

∠RQS = ∠ROS/2

⇒ ∠RQS = 42°/2 = 21°   .....(1)

Here, PQ is a diameter.

So, ∠PRQ = 90°  [∵ Angle in the semicircle = 90°]

In ΔRQT, ∠PRQ is an exterior angle

So, ∠PRQ = ∠RTQ + ∠TQR

⇒ 90° = ∠RTQ + 21°  [∵ ∠TQR = ∠RQS = 21°]

⇒ ∠RTQ = 90° - 21° = 69°

⇒ ∠PTQ = 69°

∴ The measure of  ∠PTQ is 69°

  1. 31º
  2. 62º
  3. 28º
  4. 66º

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 28º

Plane Figures Question 15 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

AB is a diameter of a circle with a center O

∠APC = 62º

Concept used:

The radius/diameter of a circle is always perpendicular to the tangent line.

Sum of all three angles of a triangle = 180°

Calculation:

 F1 Savita SSC 4-10-22 D1

Minor arc AC will create angle CBA

∠APC = 62º = ∠APB

∠BAP = 90° (diameter perpendicular to tangent)

In Δ APB,

∠APB + ∠BAP + PBA = 180° 

⇒ PBA = 180° - (90° + 62°)

⇒ PBA = 28° 

∴ The measure of minor arc AC is 28° 

Mistake PointsMeasure of the minor arc AC is asked,

∠ABC marks arc AC, 

∴ ∠ABC is the correct angle to show a measure of arc AC

This is a previous year's question, and according to the commission, this is the correct answer.
