ANSWERS

Mensuration means measurement. It is being done in our life inmany situations. For example, Length of cloth we need for

stitching, the area of a wall which is being painted, perimeter ofa rectangular plot to be fenced, quantity of water needed to fill

the tank etc. For these kinds of activities, we are doing measurements for further needs.

EXPLANATIONS236.251

1. Width of the plate = ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ = 13.5 cm17.5

Perimeter = 2 (length + width)⇒ 2 (17.5 + 13.5) = 62 cm.

2. Let the length of the plot be x m 75 3x

∴ Breadth = ⎯⎯ × x = ⎯ m 100 4

Perimeter = 1050.

∴ 1050 = 2 (x + 3x⎯4

)∴ x = 300 m.∴ Area of the plot

3 × 300= 300 × ⎯⎯⎯

4

= 67500 m2

3. Let the length be 10 andbreadth also be 10.

∴ Area = 10 × 10 = 100 New length (10% excess) = 11, New breadth (5% deficit) = 9.5 New area = 11 × 9.5 = 104.5∴ Change in area = 104.5 − 100

= 4.54.5

Percentage change = ⎯⎯ × 100 100

= 4.5%4. Area of the floor of the room = 800 × 500

= 400000 cm2

Area of the Tile = 20 ×10 cm2

400000 ∴ Number of Tiles required = ⎯⎯⎯⎯

20 × 10= 2000

5. Let the radius of larger circle be 'R' andsmaller circle be 'r'

∴ 2 πR = 132 ⇒ 2 ×22⎯7

× R = 132 ⇒ R = 21

2πr = 88 ⇒ 2 ×22⎯7

× r = 88 ⇒ r = 14

Difference in the areas = π R2 − π r2

= π (R2− r2)⇒

22⎯7

(212 − 142) ⇒ 22⎯7

(21 + 14) (21 − 14)

⇒22⎯7

× 35 × 7 = 770 sq.metres

6. Volume of sphere = b4⎯3

πr3

Volume of cone = 1⎯3

πr2h

Let the number of cones be 'x'

∴ 4⎯3

πr3 = 1⎯3

πr2h × x

⇒ 4⎯3

π × 73 = 1⎯3

π × 72 × 2 × x

⇒ x = 14 7. Length of the carpet = 10 − (0.5 + 0.5) = 9 m

Width of the carpet = 8 − (0.5 + 0.5) = 7 mArea of carpet = 9 × 7 = 63

63Required length of carpet = ⎯⎯ = 252 m

0.25∴Cost of carpet = 252 × Rs.20 = Rs.5,040.

⎯⎯⎯8. Side of the square field = √ 50625 = 225 m

Length of the wire required = 4 × 225 = 900 m

∴Total cost = Rs.15 × 900 = Rs.13,5009. Circumference of the circular plot

2640= ⎯⎯⎯ = 220 m

12

2πr = 220 ⇒ 2× 22⎯7

× r = 220 ⇒ r = 35 mArea of the plot

= πr2 =22⎯7

× 35 × 35 = 3850 sq.m

∴ Cost of carpeting = 3850 × Rs.85= Rs.3,27,250

10. Perimeter of rectangle = 2(18 + 26) = 88 cmCircumference of circle 2πr = 88

⇒ 2 × 22⎯7

× r = 88 ⇒ r = 14 cm

Area of circle = πr2 = 22⎯7

× 14 × 14

= 616 cm2

11. Radius of outer circle = 21 + 7 = 28 mRoad area = Area of outside circle − Area of

inside circleRoad area = π(28)2 − π(21)2 = 1078 sq.m ∴Cost = 1078 × Rs.5 = Rs.5,390.

12. Lateral surface area of cylinder = 2πrhBase area of cylinder = πr2

∴ 2πrh = 3πr2

⇒ h: r = 3 : 213. Let the sides of two cubes be a1 and a2

a13 : a

23 = 8:27 ⇒ a1: a2 = 2:3

∴ Surface areas ratio = 6a12 : 6a2

2

= (2)2 : (3)2 = 4:914. Length of the rope will be the radius of the

circle = 14 mArea of the circle

= πr2 = 22⎯7

× 14 × 14 = 616 sq.m

∴ Area of the ground that can be grazed= 616 sq.m.

15. Length of the stick = length of the diagonalof the room

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ ⎯⎯√ 122 + 92 + 82 = √ 289 = 17 m

16. Quantity of the earth taken from the tank = 30 × 20 × 12 cu.m

Area of the field for the earth to be spreaded= (375 × 40) − (30 × 20) = 14400∴ The rise in the level of the field

30 × 20 × 12= ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ × 100 = 50 cm

1440017. Area of the road

= Area of outside rectangle − Area of insiderectangle

= 70 × 50 − 60 × 40= 3500 − 2400 = 1100 m2

∴ The cost of making 1100 m2

= 500 × 1100 = Rs.5,50,00018. Area of four walls = 2 × 5 (7.5 + 5.5)

= 130 m2

Area of required paper = 130 m2

Breadth of the paper = 40 cm = 0.4 m

130∴ Length of the paper = ⎯⎯ = 325 m

0.4

∴ Cost of paper at 75 paise per meter

= 325 × 0.75 = Rs.243.7519. Let the length and breadth be 10 and 10

Area = 10 × 10 = 100New length = 12 (20% increase)New breadth = 11 (10% increase)New area = 12 × 11 = 132

∴ Increment in area = 132 − 100 = 32%.

20. Let the number of spherical balls be 'x'Volume of cylinder = x × Volume of sphere

π × 72 × 28 = x × 4⎯3
