Area of each part is

(a) 72cm2

(b) 36cm2

(c) 18cm2

(d) 9cm2

Ans: Correct answer is (d).

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

=12cm×6cm=72cm2

Since, rectangle is equivalent to 8 congruent

part,

As, we know congruent figures have equal areas

So, area of rectangle =8(area of one of the 8 congruent parts)

So, area of one congruent part is = area of rectangle 8

=72cm28

=9cm2


2. Area of a right triangle is 54cm2. If one of its legs is 12cm long, its perimeter is

(a) 18cm

(b) 27cm

(c) 36cm

(d) 54cm

Ans: Correct answer is (c).

Given area =54cm2

One of the side =12cm

Let us consider base as 12cm and height as x

Now

Area =12×b×h

54=12×12×h

54=6×h

h=546

h=9

Now for perimeter we need to find hypotenuse

Thus, by pythagoras

a2+b2=c2

122+92=c2

225=c2

Thus, c=15

Now perimeter

P=a+b+c

=12+9+15

=36cm


In Examples 3 to 6, fill in the blanks to make it a statement true.

3. Area of parallelogram QPON is ___cm2.

Ans: In a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel and equal.

QPON is a parallelogram, so QP=NO=6cm

Distance between parallel lines =QM=8cm

Area of parallelogram QPON= Parallel side × Distance between parallel sides

=(6×8)cm2

=48cm2

Hence, Area of parallelogram QPON is 48cm2.


4. 1 hectare = ____________cm2 

Ans: 10,00,00,000


5. ______squares of each side 1m makes a square of side 5km.

Ans: Area of bigger square =(5×5)km2=(5000×5000)m2,

Area of smaller square =(1×1)m2=1m2.

Number of squares =(5000×5000)1=25000000.

2,50,00,000 squares of each side 1m makes a square of side 5km.

10. A nursery school playground is 160m long and 80m wide. In it 80m×80m is kept for swings and in the remaining portion, there is 1.5m wide path parallel to its width and parallel to its remaining length as shown in Fig. 9.9. The remaining area is covered by grass. Find the area covered by grass.


seo images


Ans: Area of school playground is 160m×80m=12800m2

Area kept for swings =80m×80m=6400m2

Area of path parallel to the width of playground

=80m×1.5m=120m2

Area of path parallel to the remaining length of playground

=80m×1.5m=120m2.

Area common to both paths =1.5m×1.5m=2.25m2.

Total area covered by both the paths

=(120+1202.25)m2

=237.75m2

Area covered by grass = Area of school playground - (Area kept for swings + Area covered by paths)

=12800m2[6400+237.75]m2

=(128006637.75)m2

=6162.25m2.


11. In Fig. 9.10, ABCD is a parallelogram, in which AB=8cm,AD=6cm and altitude AE=4cm. Find the altitude corresponding to side AD.


seo images


Ans: Area of parallelogram ABCD=AB×AE=8×4cm2 =32cm2

Let altitude corresponding to AD be h. Then,

h×AD=32

h×6=32

h=326=163

Thus, the altitude corresponding to AD is 163cm.


12. A rectangular shaped swimming pool with dimensions 30m×20m has 5m wide cemented path along its length and 8m wide path along its width (as shown in Fig. 9.11). Find the cost of cementing the path at the rate of Rs 200 per m2.


seo images


Ans: Area covered by swimming pool =30m×20m=600m2.

Length of outer rectangle =(30+8+8)m=46m and its breadth =(20+5+5)m=30m

So, the area of outer rectangle

=46m×30m=1380m2

Area of cemented path  =  Area of outer rectangle  -  Area of swimming pool = (1380600)m2=780m2

Cost of cementing 1m2 path =200

So, total cost of cementing the path

=780×200

=156000


13. Circumference of a circle is 33cm. Find its area.

Ans: Let the radius of the circle be r.

Then, 2πr=33

So,

r=332π=332×722=214

Thus, radius is 214cm

So, area of the circle =πr2=227214214=6938

Thus, the area of the circle is 6938cm2.


14. Rectangle ABCD is formed in a circle as shown in Fig. 9.12. If  AE=8cm and AD=5cm, find the perimeter of the rectangle.


seo images


Ans: DE=EA+AD=(8+5)cm=13cm

DE is the radius of the circle.

Also, DB is the radius of the circle.

Next, AC=DB 

Therefore, AC=13cm.

From ADC,

DC2=AC2AD2

=13252

=16925

=144=122

So, DC=12

Thus, length of DC is 12cm.

Hence, perimeter of the rectangle ABCD

=2(12+5)cm=34cm.


15. Find the area of a parallelogram-shaped shaded region of Fig. 9.13. Also, find the area of each triangle. What is the ratio of the area of the shaded portion to the remaining area of the rectangle?


seo images


Ans: In DEBF the base is FB and height is AD.

We know area of a parallelogram is base × height

Area of DEBF = FB × AD 

=(104)cm×6 cm

=6 cm×6 cm

=36 cm2

In DAF the base is AF and height is AD

Area of a triangle = 12 × base × height

=12×4×6 cm

=12 cm2

In BCE the base is EC and height is CB

Area of a triangle = 12 × base × height

=12×4×6 cm

=12 cm2

Area of each triangle is 12 cm2.

Area of unshaded part =12 cm2+12 cm2

=24 cm2

The ratio of shaded part to the leftover area in the rectangle is 36:24 =3:2
