Question (14 – 18)                      3  Mark

14. Find the area of the figure if the upper portion is a semicircle

Ans: Total area = Area of semicircle + Area of Rectangle 

Area of semicircle = $\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}\pi \;{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}$

With ${\text{r  = }}\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{(length}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{rectangle)}}\;{\text{ =  }}\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}{{ \times 14 = 7}}$ 

Area of semicircle = $\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}{{ \times }}\dfrac{{{\text{22}}}}{{\text{7}}}{{ \times 7 \times 7 = 77}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$ 

Area of rectangle = length × breadth 

                     = ${\text{14}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{8 = 112}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Total area = ${\text{(77}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{112)}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 189}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

15. A goat is tied to one corner of a square field of side ${\text{8m}}$by a rope ${\text{3m}}$ long. Find the area it can graze? Also find the area the goat cannot graze.

Ans: 

Length of side of a square = ${\text{8}}\;{\text{m}}$

Area of square = ${{\text{(8}}\;{\text{m)}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 64}}\;{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Length of rope = ${\text{3m}}$ = ${\text{r}}$ (radius of circle) 

As the goat is tied to a corner of square plot it can only graze $\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{4}}}{\text{th}}$ of circle of radius equal to length of rope inside the plot.

Area covered (or grazed) by goat = $\dfrac{{\pi \;{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}}}{{\text{4}}}$ 

                                       = $\dfrac{{{\text{22}}}}{{\text{7}}}{ \times }\dfrac{{{{{\text{(3)}}}^{\text{2}}}}}{{\text{4}}}{\text{ = }}\dfrac{{{22 \times 9}}}{{{\text{28}}}}$

                                                 = ${\text{7}}{\text{.07}}\;{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Area the goat cannot graze = Area of square – Area grazed by goat 

                                            = ${\text{64}}\;{\text{ - }}\;{\text{7}}{\text{.07  =  56}}{\text{.93}}\;{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

16. If ${\text{x}}$ units are added to the length of the radius of a circle, what is the number of units by which the circumference of the circle is increased? 

Ans: Let the radius of the circle be ‘${\text{r}}$’ units 

The circumference of the circle will be ${\text{2}}\pi \;{\text{r}}$ units

If the radius is increased by ‘${\text{x}}$’ units, the new radius will be ${\text{(r + x)}}$ units. 

New circumference will be ${\text{2}}\pi \;{\text{(r}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{x)  =  2}}\pi \;{\text{r}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{2}}\pi {\text{x}}$

Circumference increased by ${\text{2}}\pi \;{\text{x}}$ units.

17. Find the area of the shaded portion if diameter of circle is ${\text{16cm}}$ and ABCD is a square.

Ans: Area of shaded portion = (Area of circle with radius =${\text{8cm}}$) – (Area of square with diagonal length = ${\text{16cm}}$)

= $\pi \;{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ - }}\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}{{\text{d}}^{\text{2}}}$

= $\dfrac{{22}}{7} \times {(8)^2} - \dfrac{1}{2}{(16)^2}$

= $\dfrac{{22 \times 64}}{7} - 128$

= ${\text{201}}{\text{.1}}\;{\text{ - }}\;{\text{128}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{73}}{\text{.1}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Ans:

When the rectangular piece is rolled in the form of a cylinder then the length became the circumference of the base of cylinder

C = ${\text{66}}$,

${\text{2}}\pi \;{\text{r  =  66}}$

$\pi \;{\text{r  =  }}\dfrac{{{\text{66}}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 33}}$

${\text{r  =  }}\dfrac{{{\text{33}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{7}}}}{{{\text{22}}}}{\text{ =  10}}{\text{.5}}\;{\text{cm}}$

Volume of Cylinder with radius = ${\text{10}}{\text{.5cm}}$ ang height = ${\text{10cm}}$

${\text{V = }}\pi \;{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{h = }}\;\dfrac{{{\text{22}}}}{{\text{7}}}\;{{ \times }}\;{{\text{(10}}{\text{.5)}}^{\text{2}}}{{ \times }}\;{\text{10}}$

   = ${\text{3465}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}}$

20. ABCD has area equal to ${\text{28}}$. BC is parallel to AD. BA is perpendicular to AD. If BC is ${\text{6}}$ and AD is ${\text{8}}$, then what is CD? 

Ans: The shape of the given figure is a trapezium

Area of Trapezium = $\dfrac{1}{2}\text{(sum of parallel sides)} \times \text{height}$

Given area of ABCD = ${\text{28}}$, BC = ${\text{6}}$, AD = $8$, CD = ?

${\text{28  =  A  =  }}\dfrac{{\text{1}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{(6}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{8)}}\;{\text{h}}$

${\text{h  =  }}\dfrac{{{\text{28}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{2}}}}{{{\text{14}}}}{\text{ = 4}}\;{\text{units}}$

To find CD: let DE perpendicular to AD (construction done) 

In triangle CED, 

ED = AD – AE 

ED = ${\text{8 - 6}}$

ED = ${\text{2}}$

${\text{C}}{{\text{D}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ = C}}{{\text{E}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ + E}}{{\text{D}}^{\text{2}}}$

${\text{C}}{{\text{D}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ = }}\;{{\text{(4)}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ + }}\;{{\text{(2)}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 16}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{4}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{20}}$

${\text{CD  =  }}\sqrt {{\text{20}}} \;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{2}}\sqrt {\text{5}} $

21. From the adjoining figure find the area of shaded portion

Ans: From the figure, 

Area of shaded portion = [Area of rectangle with ${\text{l = 24}}$, ${\text{b = 10}}$] – [Area of rectangle with ${\text{b = 6}}$, ${\text{l = 10}}$+ Area of square with side = ${\text{4}}$]

Area of big rectangle = ${\text{l}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{b}}$

                                   = ${\text{24}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{10}}\;{\text{  =  240}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Area of small rectangle =  ${\text{l}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{b}}$

                                      =   ${\text{6}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{10 }}\;{\text{ =  }}\;{\text{60}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Area of squares = ${\text{4}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{4}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{16}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Therefore, Area of shaded portion = ${\text{240}}\;{\text{ - }}\;{\text{(60}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{16)}}$

                                                    = ${\text{240}}\;{\text{ - }}\;{\text{76  =  164}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

22. A flooring tile has a shape of a parallelogram whose base is ${\text{28cm}}$ and the corresponding height is ${\text{20cm}}$. How many such tiles are required to cover a floor of area ${\text{2800}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$. 

Ans: Given, Base = ${\text{28cm}}$ , height = ${\text{20cm}}$

Area of floor =  ${\text{2800}}\;{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

                    = ${\text{2800}}\;\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{\text{4}}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;\;{\text{28}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{\text{6}}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Area of each parallelogram tile = base × height 

                                                   = ${\text{28}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{20  =  560}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Number of tiles required =  $\dfrac{{{\text{Area}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{floor}}}}{{{\text{Area}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{tiles}}}}{\text{ = }}\dfrac{{{\text{28} \times 1}{{\text{0}}^{\text{6}}}}}{{{\text{560}}}}$  = $\dfrac{{{\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{\text{5}}}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{ = }}\dfrac{{{\text{100000}}}}{{\text{2}}}{\text{ = 50000}}$

23. Rain water which falls on a flat rectangular surface of length ${\text{6m}}$ and breadth ${\text{4m}}$ is transferred into a cylindrical vessel of internal radius ${\text{20cm}}$. What will be the height of water in the cylindrical vessel if the rain fall is ${\text{1cm}}$ (Take $\pi \;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{3}}{\text{.14}}$) 

Ans:

Since the water in the rectangular surface is transferred to the cylindrical vessel. 

Length of surface = ${\text{6}}\;{\text{m  =  600}}\;{\text{cm}}$ 

Breadth of surface = ${\text{4}}\;{\text{m  =  400}}\;{\text{cm}}$

Height of water level = ${\text{1}}\;{\text{cm}}$

Volume of water on the surface = ${\text{l}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{b}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{h}}$

$\begin{align} & =\text{600}\ \times \ \text{400}\ \times \ \text{1} \\ & =\text{240000}\ \text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{3}}} \\ \end{align}$

Let ‘${\text{h}}$’ be the height of the cylindrical vessel, ${\text{r  =  20}}\;{\text{cm}}$ (radius of cylindrical vessel) 

Volume of cylindrical vessel = $\pi \;{{\text{r}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{h}}$

                                            = $\;\pi {{\text{(20)}}^{\text{2}}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{h}}$

Volume of water on surface = Volume of water in cylindrical vessel

${\text{24000  =  }}\pi {{\text{(20)}}^{\text{2}}}{{ \times h}}$

${\text{h  =  }}\dfrac{{{\text{24000}}}}{{\pi \;{{ \times }}\;{\text{20}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{20}}}}{\text{ = 191}}{\text{.08}}\;{\text{cm}}$

24. If each edge of a cube is doubled 

(a) how many times will its surface area increases 

(b) how many times will its volume increases 

Ans:

For side of ‘x’ units, surface area ${{\text{s}}_{\text{1}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{6}}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}$

When side of cube is doubled (${\text{2x}}$ units) 

Surface area ${{\text{s}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ = }}\;{\text{6(2x}}{{\text{)}}^{\text{2}}}$

${{\text{s}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ = }}\;{\text{6}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{4(x}}{{\text{)}}^{\text{2}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;\;{\text{4(6}}{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{)}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{4}}{{\text{s}}_{\text{1}}}$

Surface area increases by ${\text{4}}$ times. 

Volume for edge of ‘${\text{x}}$’ units ${{\text{v}}_{\text{1}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{{\text{x}}^{\text{3}}}$

Volume of cube when edge is doubled ${\text{(2x)}}$, ${{\text{v}}_{\text{2}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{{\text{(2x)}}^{\text{3}}}$

                                                                     ${{\text{v}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ = }}\;\;{\text{8(x}}{{\text{)}}^{\text{3}}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{8}}{{\text{v}}_{\text{1}}}$

Therefore, volume increases by 8 times.

25. A box with measures ${\text{80cm} \times \text{48cm} \times \text{24cm}}$ is to be covered with a tarpaulin cloth how many metres of tarpaulin cloth of width ${\text{96cm}}$ is required to cover ${\text{50}}$ such boxes?  

Ans: The box with ${\text{l}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{80}}\;{\text{cm,}}\;{\text{b}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{48}}\;{\text{cm,}}\;{\text{h}}\;{\text{ = }}\;{\text{24}}\;{\text{cm}}$

Total surface area = ${\text{2(lb}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{bh}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{hl)}}$

                            = ${\text{2[(80}}\; \times \;48)\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{(48}}\; \times \;{\text{24)}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{(80}}\; \times \;{\text{24)]}}$

                            = ${\text{2[3840}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{1152}}\;{\text{ + }}\;{\text{1920]}}$

                             = ${\text{2[6912]  =  13824}}\;{\text{c}}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}$

Length of cloth required = ${\text{(}}\dfrac{{{\text{Area}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{box}}}}{{{\text{breadth}}}}{\text{)}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{50}}$

                                       = ${\text{(}}\dfrac{{13824}}{{96}}{\text{)}}\;{{ \times }}\;{\text{50  =  144}}\; \times \;{\text{50}}$

                                       = ${\text{7200}}\;{\text{cm = 72}}\;{\text{m}}$
