Plane Figures Question 1:

The area of a rectangle is 35 cm2. If its length is 7 cm, what is the perimeter of the rectangle?

  1. 18 cm
  2. 12 cm
  3. 24 cm
  4. 36 cm

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 24 cm

Plane Figures Question 1 Detailed Solution

Given:

Area of rectangle = 35 cm²

Length = 7 cm

Formula used:

Area = Length × Breadth

Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Breadth)

Calculation:

⇒ 35 = 7 × Breadth

⇒ Breadth = 35 ÷ 7 = 5 cm

⇒ Perimeter = 2 × (7 + 5) = 2 × 12 = 24 cm

∴ The perimeter of the rectangle is: 24 cm

Plane Figures Question 2:

The ratio of the perimeter of a rectangle to a square is 3:2, and the length and breadth of the rectangle are (y+5) cm and y cm respectively. The area of the square is P, and the area of the rectangle is 50 cm². Find the side length of a cube whose volume is Q, if P + Q = 89. 

  1. 2 cm
  2. 4 cm
  3. 6 cm
  4. 8 cm
  5. None of these

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 4 cm

Plane Figures Question 2 Detailed Solution

Given:

Perimeter ratio (Rectangle : Square) = 3 : 2

Length of rectangle = (y + 5) cm

Breadth of rectangle = y cm

Area of rectangle = 50 cm²

Area of square = P

P + Q = 89

Formula used:

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (length + breadth)

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

Area of square = side2 = P

Volume of cube = side3 = Q

Calculations:

Area: (y + 5) × y = 50

⇒ y2 + 5y = 50

⇒ y2 + 5y - 50 = 0

⇒ y = 5 (solving quadratic)

⇒ Length = 10 cm, Breadth = 5 cm

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (10 + 5) = 30 cm

Let side of square = x, then perimeter = 4x

Ratio ⇒ 30 : 4x = 3 : 2

⇒ 30/4x = 3/2

⇒ 60 = 12x

⇒ x = 5

Area of square = x2 = 25 = P

P + Q = 89 ⇒ Q = 64

Volume of cube = 64 ⇒ side3 = 64

⇒ side = 4

∴ Side length of the cube is 4 cm.

Plane Figures Question 3:

A point p is given inside a parallelogram ABCD, area of ΔAPD = 17 cm2, ΔCPD = 19 cm2 and ΔBPC = 13 cm2, then find the area of ΔAPB.

  1. 13 cm2
  2. 11 cm2
  3. 19 cm2
  4. 17 cm2
  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 11 cm2

Plane Figures Question 3 Detailed Solution

Short Trick:

Area of (ΔAPB + ΔCPD) = Area of (ΔBPC + ΔAPD)

∴ ΔAPB = 11 cm2

Detailed Solution:

Let the side of the perpendicular be a cm and b cm

Drop a perpendicular from p to all sides,

Let the length of perpendicular on side AB be x cm and on side CD be y cm.

Sum of Area of ΔAPB and ΔCPD = 1/2 × (ax + ay) = 1/2 × ah1

= 1/2 Area of parallelogram ABCD          ----(1)

Let the length of perpendicular on side CB be w cm and on side AD be z cm.

Similarly, Sum of Area of ΔCPB and ΔAPD = 1/2 × (bw + bz) = 1/2 × bh2 = 1/2 × Area of parallelogram ABCD          ----(2)

As the Area of perpendicular is equal, Equation 1 = Equation 2

⇒ Area of (ΔAPB + ΔCPD) = Area of (ΔBPC + ΔAPD)

∴ ΔAPB = 11 cm2

Plane Figures Question 4:

If each side of a square be increased by 10%, the percentage increase in area is

  1. 10%
  2. 25%
  3. 21%
  4. 100%

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 3 : 21%

Plane Figures Question 4 Detailed Solution

Given:

Side of a square increased = 10%

Formula used:

Increase = New number - Original number

% increase = (Increase/Original Number) × 100

Area of square = side2

Calculations:

Let the side of the square be a 

Area of a square with side a = a2

After increasing percentage of side a by 10% = a + 10% of a

⇒ a(1 + 10/100) = a(1 + 1/10)

⇒ a(11/10) = 11a/10

Area of the square after increasing side by a = (11a/10)2

⇒ (11a/10) × (11a/10) = 121a2/100

⇒ 1.21a2

Percentage change in area of square =[(1.21a2 - a2)/a2] × 100

⇒ [a2(1.21 - 1)/a2] × 100 = 0.21 × 100 

⇒ 21%

∴ Percentage change in area of square is 21%

Alternate Method

Percentage increase in a regular polygon = x + y + (xy/100)

In square length and breadth are same, x = y

Percentage increase = x + x + (xx/100)

⇒ 2x + x2/100 = 2 × 10 + 10 × 10/100

⇒ 20 + 1 = 21%

∴ The required percentage is 21%

Plane Figures Question 5:

If a circle and a semi-circle have the same radius as 14 cm, then the ratio of their perimeters is

  1. 5 : 1
  2. 6 : 7
  3. 11 : 9
  4. 12 : 9

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : 12 : 9

Plane Figures Question 5 Detailed Solution

Given:

Radius of the circle = 14 cm

Radius of the semi-circle = 14 cm

Formula Used:

Perimeter of a circle = 2 × π × radius

Perimeter of a semi-circle = π × radius + diameter

Calculation:

Perimeter of the circle = 2 × π × 14

Perimeter of the circle = 28π

Perimeter of the semi-circle = π × 14 + 2 × 14

Perimeter of the semi-circle = 14π + 28

Ratio of the perimeters = (Perimeter of the circle) / (Perimeter of the semi-circle)

⇒ Ratio = (28π) / (14π + 28)

⇒ Ratio = 28π / (14(π + 2))

⇒ Ratio = 2π / (π + 2)

Approximating π = 3.14:

Ratio = (2 × 3.14) / (3.14 + 2)

⇒ Ratio = 6.28 / 5.14

⇒ Ratio ≈ 1.22 : 1

Correct Ratio ≈ 12 : 9

The ratio of their perimeters is 12 : 9.

Download Solution PDF

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:

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

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:

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

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 : 

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.

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 ROS = 42º, then the measure of 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:

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°

In an isosceles triangle ABC, if AB = AC = 26 cm and BC = 20 cm, find the area of triangle ABC. 

  1. 180 cm2
  2. 240 cm2
  3. 220 cm2
  4. 260 cm2

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 2 : 240 cm2

Plane Figures Question 15 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Given:

In an isosceles triangle ABC,

AB = AC = 26 cm and BC = 20 cm.

Calculations:

In this triangle ABC,

∆ADC = 90° ( Angle formed by a line from opposite vertex to unequal side at mid point in isosceles triangle is 90°)

So,

AD² + BD² = AB²   (by pythagoras theorem)

⇒ AD² = 576

⇒ AD = 24

Area of triangle = ½(base × height)

⇒ ½(20 × 24)   (Area of triangle = (1/2) base × height)

⇒  240 cm²

∴ The correct choice is option 2.
