Q 1 - The proportion of the length and expansiveness of a plot is 3:2. On the off chance that the expansiveness is 40m not exactly the length of its slanting is:
Answer : C
Explanation
Let the length be 3x meter. Then, breadth = 2x meters Then, 3x-2x= 40 ⇒ x=40 ∴length = (3*40) = 120m and b= (2*40) =80m ∴ Perimeter = 2(120+80) = 400m
Q 2 - The edge of a rectangle and a square are 160m each. The range of the rectangle is not exactly that of the square by 100sq. meters. The length of the rectangle is:
Answer : C
Explanation
Each side of the square= 160/4m = 40m 2(L+b) =160 ⇒ (L+b) = 80 (40) 2-Lb= 100 ⇒ lb= (1600-100) = 1500 (L-b) 2= (L+b) 2- 4Lb= (80) 2-4*1500= (6400-6000) =400⇒L-b=20 ∴L+b= 80, L-b= 20 ⇒ 2L=100 ⇒ L= 50 m
Q 3 - If every side of a Square is expanded by 4cm, then its territory is expanded by 60m2. The side of the square is:
Answer : D
Explanation
let the side of the square be x cm. then, (x+4) 2-x2= 60 ⇒ 8x+16= 60 ⇒8x=44 ⇒x= 5.5cm ∴ Each side = 5.5 cm
Q 4 - A Verandah 40m long and 15 m wide is to be cleared with stones every measuring 6dm by 5dm. The quantity of stones required is:
Answer : B
Explanation
Area of the verandah= (40*15)m2= 600m2 Area of one stone= (6/10*5/10) m2= 3/10m2 No. of stones = (600*10/3) = 2000
Q 5 - If the diagonal of a square is doubled, then the area of a new square becomes?
Answer : A
Explanation
Let the length of original diagonal be d cm. Then, its area=1/2d2 cm2 New diagonal= (2d) cm. new area = 1/2*(2d) 2=2d2=4*(1/2d2) =4*old area.
Q 6 - The area of an equilateral triangle is 4√3cm2. Each of its side measures.
Answer : D
Explanation
Let each side be a cm. then, √3/4 a2= 4√3 ⇒a2 =16 ⇒a= 4cm
Q 7 - On expanding every side of an equilateral triangle by 2cm, there is an increment of 2√3 cm2 in its zone. The length of every side of the Triangle is:
Answer : A
Explanation
Let each side of the triangle be x cm. then, area = (√3/4) x2 cm2 ∴ √3/4 (x+2)2- √3/4 x2= 2√3 ⇒√3/4{(x+2)2- x2} =2√3 ⇒ √3/4* 4(x+1) = 2√3 ⇒ x+1= 2 ⇒x= 1
Q 8 - The length of the middle of an equilateral triangle is x. The range of the triangle is:
Answer : D
Explanation
Let each side be a and height be x. then, A2/4+ x2 = a2 ⇒ (a2-a2/4) = x2⇒ a2= 4x2/3 Area of the triangle = √ 3/4 a2 = √3/4* 4x2/3= √3x2/3
Q 9 - The region of a rhombus is 144cm2. On the off chance that one of the diagonals is twofold the other, the lengths of the diagonals is:
Answer : B
Explanation
Let one diagonal be x cm. then, another diagonal = 2x cm ∴ 1/2 * x*2x= 144 ⇒x2 =144 ⇒x= 12 Length of the diagonals is 12cm, 24 cm
Q 10 - The range of a square field is 6050m2. The length of its corner to corner is
Answer : A
Explanation
Let the diagonal be d meter. Then, 1/2 d2=6050⇒ d2= 12100 ⇒d=√12100= 110 m.
