Question. The base and the corresponding altitude of a parallelogram are 10 cm and 3.5 cm, respectively. The area of the parallelogram is 30 cm².
Answer. The base of the parallelogram is 10 cm and the corresponding altitude is 3.5 cm.
Area of || gm = base × corresponding altitude.
= 10 cm × 3.5 cm = 35 cm².
Hence, the given statement is false.

Question. The area of Δ ABC is 8 cm² in which AB = AC = 4 cm and ∠A= 90º.
Answer. Area of Δ = 1/2 X base X height = 1/2 X 4 X 4 = 8cm²

Hence, the given statement is true.

Question. The area of the isosceles triangle is 5/4 √11cm² if the perimeter is 11 cm and the base is 5 cm.
Answer. Let the equal sides of the isosceles triangle be ‘a’ and base of the triangle be ‘b’.
Perimeter of Δs = 5 + a + a = 11
⇒ 2a = 11 − 5 = 6;a = 6 ÷ 2 = 3cm

Hence, the given statement is true.

Question. If the side of a rhombus is 10 cm and one diagonal is 16 cm, the area of the rhombus is 96 cm².
Answer. Let ABCD be the rhombus whose one diagonal AC is 16cm. Each side of rhombus is 10cm. We know that diagonal of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, so OA = OC = 8 cm and OB = OD.

In ΔAOB, we have ∠AOB = 90⁰
∴ AB² = OA² +OB²
⇒ OB2 = AB² −OA²
= (10)² −8² =100 − 64 = 36
∴ OB = + √36 = 6cm
∴ DB = 2(OB) = 2 × 6 =12cm
Hence, area of rhombus = 1/2 × Product of diagonals
= 1/2 x 16 x 12 = 96cm²
Hence, the given statement is true.

Question. The area of a triangle with base 4 cm and height 6 cm is 24 cm².
Answer. Area of Δ = 1/2 X base X height = 1/2 X 4X 6 = 12cm²
Hence, the statement is false.

Question. The area of a regular hexagon of side ‘a’ is the sum of the areas of the five equilateral triangles with side a.
Answer. We see a regular hexagon is divided into six equilateral triangles.
So, the area of the regular hexagon is divided side ‘a’ is the sum of area of the six equilateral triangles with side a.

Hence, the given statement that the area of a regular hexagon of side ‘a’ is the sum of the areas of the five equilateral triangles with side a is false.

Question. The area of the equilateral triangle is 20√3cm² whose each side is 8 cm.
Answer. Area of equilateral = √3/4 (side)²
= √3/4 (8)² = √3/4 X 64 = 16 √3cm²
Hence, the given statement is false.

Question. In a triangle, the sides are given as 11 cm, 12 cm and 13 cm. The length of the altitude is 10.25 cm corresponding to the side having length 12 cm.
Answer. We have the length of the altitude corresponding to the side having length 12 cm.
2s = 11 cm + 12 cm + 13 cm = 36 cm
⇒ s = 36 ÷ 2 = 18cm

= √105 =10.25cm
Hence, the given statement is true.

Question. Find the cost of laying grass in a triangular field of sides 50 m, 65 m and 65 m at the rate of Rs 7 per m².
Answer. We have, 2s = 50 m + 65 m + 65 m = 180 m
S = 180 ÷ 2 = 90 m

= 1500m².
Cost of laying grass at the rate of Rs 7 per m² = Rs (1500 × 7) = Rs 10,500

Question. The triangular side walls of a flyover have been used for advertisements. The sides of the walls are 13 m, 14 m and 15 m. The advertisements yield an earning of Rs 2000 per m² a year. A company hired one of its walls for 6 months. How much rent did it pay?
Answer. The sides of triangular side walls of flyover which have been used for advertisements are 13 m, 14 m, 15 m.
s = 13 + 14 + 15 / 2 = 42 / 2 = 21 m

= 7 × 3 × 2 × 2 = 84m²
It is given that the advertisement yield an earning of Rs 2,000 per m² a year.
∴ Rent for 1 m² for 1 year = Rs 2000
So, rent for 1 m² for 6 months or 1/2 year = rs (1/2 x 2000) = Rs 1,000.
∴ Rent for 84 m² for 6 months = Rs (1000 × 84) = Rs 84,000.

Question. The cost of levelling the ground in the form of a triangle having the sides 51 m, 37 m and 20 m at the rate of Rs 3 per m² is Rs 918.
Answer. We have 2s = 51 m + 37 m + 20 m= 180 m
⇒ 108 ÷ 2 = 54m

Cost of leveling the ground = Rs (306 × 3) Rs 918
Hence, the given statement is true.

Question. From a point in the interior of an equilateral triangle, perpendiculars are drawn on the three sides. The lengths of the perpendiculars are 14 cm, 10 cm and 6 cm.
Find the area of the triangle.
Answer. Let ABC be an equilateral triangle, O be the interior point and OQ, OR and OC are the perpendicular drawn from points O. Let the sides of an equilateral triangle be a m.

Area of ΔAOB = 1/2 × AB × OP
[∵ Area of a triangle = 1/2 x (base × height)]
= 1/2 × a × 14 = 7 a cm2        …(1)
Area of ΔOBC = 1× BC × OQ 1/2 × a × 10
     = 5a cm²                             …(2)
Area of ΔOAC = 1/2 × AC × OR = 1/2 × a × 6
    = 3a cm²                              …(3)
∴ Area of an equilateral ΔABC
= Area of (ΔOAB + ΔOBC + ΔOAC)
= (7a + 5a + 3a) cm²
    = 15a cm²                            …(4)
We have, semi-perimeter s = a + a + a / 2
    ⇒ s = (3a/2) cm

From equations (4) and (5), we get
√3 / 4 a² = 15a
⇒ a = 15 x 4 / √3 = 60 / √3
⇒ a = 60 / √3 = √3 / √3 = 20√3cm
On putting a = 20√3 in equation (5), we get
Area of ΔABC = √3 (20√3)² = √3 / 4 x 400 x 3 = 300√3cm²
Hence, the area of an equilateral triangle is 300√3cm².

Question. Find the area of a parallelogram given in Fig. 12.2. Also find the length of the altitude from vertex A on the side DC.
Answer. Area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 (Area of ΔBCD)                               …(1)

Now, the sides of ΔBCD are
a = 12 cm, b = 17 cm and c = 25 cm.
∴ Semi-perimeter of ΔBCD,
s = a + b + c / 2
= 12 + 17 + 25 / 2
= 54 / 2 = 27cm

From equation (1), we get
Area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x 90 = 180cm²
Let the altitude of parallelogram be h.
Also, area of parallelogram ABCD = Base × Altitude
⇒ 180 = DC × h
⇒ 180 = 12× h
⇒ h = 180 / 12 = 15cm
Hence, the area of parallelogram is 180 cm² and the length of altitude is 15 cm.

Question. A field in the form of a parallelogram has sides 60 m and 40 m and one of its diagonals is 80 m long. Find the area of the parallelogram.
Answer. Let the field be ABCD.

Area of the parallelogram ABCD = 2(area of ΔABC )                 …(1)
Now, the sides of ΔABC are
a = 40 m, b = 60 m and c = 80 m
∴ Semi-perimeter of ΔABC,

Formula equation (1), we get
Area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 × 1161.895 = 2323.79 m².

Question. The perimeter of an isosceles triangle is 32 cm. The ratio of the equal side to its base is 3: 2. Find the area of the triangle.
Answer. As the sides of the equal to the base of an isosceles triangle is 3: 2, so let the sides of an isosceles triangle be 3x, 3x and 2x.
Now, perimeter of triangle = 3x + 3x + 2x = 8x
Given Perimeter of triangle = 32 m
∴ 8x = 32; x = 32 ÷8 = 4
So, the sides of the isosceles triangle are (3×4)cm, (3×4)cm, (2×4)cm i.e., 12 cm, 12 cm and 8cm

Question. The perimeter of a triangular field is 420 m and its sides are in the ratio 6 : 7 : 8.
Find the area of the triangular field.
Answer. Suppose that the sides in metres are 6x, 7x and 8x.
Now, 6x + 7x + 8x = perimeter = 420
⇒ 21x = 420
⇒ x = 420/21
⇒ x = 20
∴ The sides of the triangular field are 6 × 20m,7× 20m, 8 × 20m, i.e., 120 m, 140 m and 160m.
Now, s = Half the perimeter of triangular field
= 1/2 x 420m = 210
Using Heron’s formula,

Hence, the area of the triangular field = 8133.265 m².

Question. Find the area of the trapezium PQRS with height PQ given in Fig. 12.3

Answer. Draw RT ^ PS from the figure, it is clear that
ST = PS – PT
= 12 m – 7 m
= 5 m
Now, from right triangle RTS, we have
RS² = RT² + ST²
⇒ RT² = RS² – ST² = (13)² – 52
∴ RT² = 169 − 25 = 144 ⇒ RT = + √144 = 12m
Now area of trapezium PQRS
= PS + QR × RT = 1/2 (12m + 7m) x 12
= 1/2 x 19m x 12m = 1/2 x 228m2 = 12m²

Question. The sides of a quadrilateral ABCD are 6 cm, 8 cm, 12 cm and 14 cm (taken in order) respectively, and the angle between the first two sides is a right angle. Find its area.
Answer. We have to find that the area of quadrilateral ABCD. ABC is a right triangle.
∴ By Pythagoras theorem, we have

= 58.787cm (approx.)
∴ Area of quadrilateral ABCD
= Area of ΔABC + Area of ΔACD
= 24cm² + 58.787cm²
= 82.787cm² (approx.)

Question. A rhombus shaped sheet with perimeter 40 cm and one diagonal 12 cm, is painted on both sides at the rate of Rs 5 per m². Find the cost of painting.
Answer. Perimeter of rhombus = 40 cm

∴ 4 × side = 40
⇒ side = 40 / 4 = 10 cm
One diagonal = 12 cm
As rhombus is also a parallelogram, so it diagonal divide it into two congruent triangles of equal area.
∴ Area of rhombus = 2(Area of triangle with sides 10cm, 10cm and 12cm)
So, let a = 10 cm, b = 10 cm and c = 12 cm

Now, area of rhombus ABCD = 2(area of ΔABC )
= 2 × 48 cm² = 86 cm².
Now, cost of painting both sides of rhombus shaped sheet ABCD
= Rs 2 × 5 × 96 = Rs 960

Question. How much paper of each shade is needed to make a kite given in Fig. 12.4, in which ABCD is a square with diagonal 44 cm.

Answer. Each diagonal of square = 44 cm and as diagonal of a square bisect each other at right angles.
∴ Area of square ABCD
= 2(area of ΔABC)
= 2(1/2 x 44 22) = 2(44 x 11)
= 968 cm².
∴ Paper of Red shade needed to make the kite
= 1/4(968cm²) = 242cm²
Paper of yellow shade needed to make the kite = (242 + 242) = 484 cm².
Let us find the area of a triangle with sides 20 cm, 20 cm and 14 cm which is at the bottom of the square ABCD.
Now, semi-perimeter

= 21 × 6.245 = 131.15cm
Paper of Green shade needed to make the kite
= (242 + 131.15) cm² = 373.15 cm².

Question. The perimeter of a triangle is 50 cm. One side of a triangle is 4 cm longer than the smaller side and the third side is 6 cm less than twice the smaller side. Find the area of the triangle.
Answer. Let the smaller side of the triangle be x cm. therefore, the second side will be (x + 4) cm, and third side is (2x – 6)cm.
Now, perimeter of triangle = x (x + 4) + (2x – 6) = (4x – 2)cm
Also, perimeter of triangle = 50 cm. 4x = 52; x = 52 ÷ 4 = 13
Therefore, the three sides are 13 cm, 17cm, 20cm

Question. The area of a trapezium is 475 cm2 and the height is 19 cm. Find the lengths of its two parallel sides if one side is 4 cm greater than the other.
Answer. Area of trapezium = 1/2 × (Sum of the parallel side) × height
⇒ 475 = 1/2 x (x + x + 4) x 19cm
⇒ 2x + 4 = 950/19 = 50
⇒ 2x + 50 – 4 = 46, x = 46 ÷ 2 = 23
Hence, the length of two parallel sides are 23 cm and (23 + 4) cm i.e., 23 cm and 27 cm.

Question. A rectangular plot is given for constructing a house, having a measurement of 40 m long and 15 m in the front. According to the laws, a minimum of 3 m, wide space should be left in the front and back each and 2 m wide space on each of other sides. Find the largest area where house can be constructed.
Answer. The length of the rectangular plot = 40 m
And the breath of the plot = 15 m.
As a minimum of 3 m wide space should be left in the front and back 2 m wide space each
of other side, so the largest area where the house can be constructed.
= [40 − 2(3)] [15− 2(2)] = 34 × 11 = 374m²

Question. The dimensions of a rectangle ABCD are 51 cm × 25 cm. A trapezium with its parallel sides QC and PD in the ratio 9 : 8, is cut off from the rectangle as shown in the Fig. 12. 6. If the area of the trapezium PQCD is 5/6 th part of the area of the rectangle, find the lengths QC and PD.

Answer. ABCD is a rectangle in which AB = 51 cm and BC = 25 cm.
Since parallel sides QC and PD are in the ratio 9:8, so let QC = 9 x and PD = 8x.
Now, are of trapezium PACD = 1/2 x (9x + 8x) x 25cm2
= 1/2 x 17x X 25
Area of rectangle ABCD = BC × CD = 51 × 25
It is given that area of trapezium PQCD = 5/6 × Area of rectangle ABCD.

Hence, the length QC = 9x = 9 × 5 = 45 cm.
And the length PD = 8x = 8 × 5 = 40 cm.

Question. A field is in the shape of a trapezium having parallel sides 90 m and 30 m. These sides meet the third side at right angles. The length of the fourth side is 100 m. If it costs Rs4 to plough 1m² of the field, find the total cost of ploughing the field.
Answer. The two-parallel side are AB = 90 cm and CD = 30 m. DM ⊥ AB
Now, MB = AB – AM = 90 m – 30 m = 60 m.
In right triangle DMB, we have
DM² = DB² – MB² = (100)² – (60)²

DM² = 10,000 – 3600 = 6400
⇒ DM = + √6400 = 80m
∴ The area of the field ABDC which is trapezium in shape
= 1/2 × (Sum of the parallel sides) ×height
= 1/2 x (90 + 30) x 80m²
= 1/2 x 120 x 80 = 4800m²
Total cost of ploughing the field at the rate of Rs4 per m² = Rs(4800 × 4) = Rs19,200.

Question. In Fig. 12.5, Δ ABC has sides AB = 7.5 cm, AC = 6.5 cm and BC = 7 cm. On base BC a parallelogram DBCE of same area as that of Δ ABC is constructed. Find the height DF of the parallelogram.

Answer. Sides of triangle ABC are 7.5cm, 7cm and 6.5cm.
The semi-perimeter of ΔABC

Now, as on base BC a parallelogram ΔBCE of same area of as that of ΔABC is constructed.
Therefore, area of ||gm ΔBCE = BC × DF
∴ BC × DF = 21cm²
⇒ 7 × DF = 21cm²
⇒ DF = 21cm² ÷ 7cm = 3cm
Hence, the height DF of the parallelogram = 3cm.

Question. A design is made on a rectangular tile of dimensions 50 cm × 70 cm as shown in Fig. 12.7. The design shows 8 triangles, each of sides 26 cm, 17 cm and 25 cm. Find the total area of the design and the remaining area of the tile.

Answer. Given, the dimension of rectangular tile are 50 cm × 70 cm
∴ Area of rectangular tile = 50 × 70 = 3500 cm².
The sides of a design of one triangle be a = 25 cm, b = cm and c = 26 cm.

∴ Total area of eight triangles = 240 × 8 = 1632cm²
Now, area of the design = Total area of eight triangles
= 1632 cm²
Also, remaining area of the tile = Area of the rectangle – Area of the design
= 3500 cm² – 1632 cm²
= 1868 cm²
Hence, the total area of the design is 1632 cm² and the remaining area of the tile is 1868cm².
