  1. $32\ m$

  2. $9\ m$

  3. $3\ m$

  4. $5\ m$

  5. $None\ of\ these$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
formula,

$\dfrac{(l+b)h}{2}=area$

$\dfrac{(12.5+7.5)h}{2}=320$

$(12.5+7.5)h=640$

$20h=640$

$\therefore h=32m$

  1. $8\sqrt { 3 } $

  2. $5\sqrt { 3 } $

  3. $16\sqrt { 3 } $

  4. $6\sqrt { 3 } $

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

We have,

$ \overrightarrow{a}=\widehat{i}+2\widehat{j}+3\widehat{k} $

$ \overrightarrow{b}=3\widehat{i}-2\widehat{j}+\widehat{k} $


We know that,

Area of parallelogram $=\left| \begin{matrix} i & j & k \\ 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 3 & -2 & 1 \end{matrix} \right| $

$ =\left( -6-2 \right)\widehat{i}-\widehat{j}\left( 9-1 \right)+\widehat{k}\left( 6+2 \right) $

$ =-8\widehat{i}-8\widehat{j}+8\widehat{k} $


$ Now, $

$ \left| \overrightarrow{a}\times \overrightarrow{b} \right|=\sqrt{{{\left( -8 \right)}^{2}}+{{\left( -8 \right)}^{2}}+{{8}^{2}}} $

$ =\sqrt{64+64+64} $

$ =\sqrt{3\times 64} $

$ =8\sqrt{3}\,\,sq.\,unit $


Hence, this is the answer.

ABCD is a parallelogram with sides $AB = 12\ cm$, $BC = 10\ cm$ and diagonal $AC = 16\ cm$. Find the approximate area of the parallelogram.

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. $119.8cm^2$

  2. $103.7cm^2$

  3. $15.7cm^2$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Area of triangle with sides $12\ cm, 10\ cm, 16\ cm$:
$s=\dfrac{12+10+16}{2}=19$

Area, A = $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

$A=\sqrt{19(19-12)(19-10)(19-16)}$

$A=59.9$ sq. cm

Therefore,
Area of parallelogram $=2A = 2\times 59.9 = 119.8$ sq. cm

Which of the following statements are true (T) and which are false (F)?
If three angles of a quadrilateral are equal, it is a parallelogram.

Correct Option: B

Which of the following statements are true (T) and which are false (F)?
If three sides of a quadrilateral are equal, it is a parallelogram.

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$\Rightarrow$  We know that, in parallelogram opposite sides are parallel and equal in length.

$\Rightarrow$  In some case all four sides are equal in length. ( Square and rhombus )
$\Rightarrow$  But we can't say that, three sides are equal than that is a parallelogram. That doesn't satisfied the properties of a parallelogram.
$\therefore$  If three sides of a quadrilateral are equal then it is not a parallelogram.
$\therefore$  The given statement is false.
 

Two opposite angles of a parallelogram are $(3x-2)^{\circ}$ and $(50-x)^{\circ}$. Find the measure of each angle of the parallelogram.

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. $40^{\circ},140^{\circ},40^{\circ},140^{\circ}$

  2. $37^{\circ},143^{\circ},37^{\circ},143^{\circ}$

  3. $35^{\circ},145^{\circ},35^{\circ},145^{\circ}$

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Since opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal. Therefore,
$3x-2=50-x\Rightarrow x=13$


$(3x−2)^{\circ}=3(13)-2=37^{\circ}$

The measures of the adjacent angles of a parallelogram add up to be $180$ degrees, or they are supplementary.
Another angle $=180-37=143^{\circ}$

The measure of each angle of the parallelogram.
$37^{\circ},143^{\circ},37^{\circ},143^{\circ}$

Find the measure of all the angles of a parallelogram, if one angle is $24^{\circ}$ less than twice the smallest angle.

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. $68^{\circ},112^{\circ},68^{\circ},112^{\circ}$

  2. $48^{\circ},72^{\circ},48^{\circ},72^{\circ}$

  3. Insufficient data 

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Let the smallest angle be of $x^{\circ}$. 


Then, the other angle is of $(2x-24)^{\circ}$. 

Since adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.

$\therefore x^{\circ}+(2x-24)^{\circ}=180^{\circ}\Rightarrow x=68^{\circ}$


$(2x-24)^{\circ}=2(68)-24=112^{\circ}$


The measure of all the angles of a parallelogram are
$68^{\circ},112^{\circ},68^{\circ},112^{\circ}$

In a parallelogram ABCD, if $ \angle B = 135^{\circ},$ determine the measures of its other angles.

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. $ \angle A = 45^{\circ}, \angle C = 45^{\circ},\angle D = 135^{\circ} $

  2. $ \angle A = 135^{\circ}, \angle C = 45^{\circ},\angle D = 45^{\circ} $

  3. $ \angle A = 40^{\circ}, \angle C = 50^{\circ},\angle D = 135^{\circ} $

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

We have, $\angle B = 135^{\circ} $ 


Since ABCD is a parallelogram.

$ \therefore \angle A = \angle C, \angle B = \angle D $ and $ \angle A + \angle B = 180^{\circ} $

$ \Rightarrow \angle A = \angle C = 45^{\circ} $ and $ \angle B = \angle D = 135^{\circ} $

A flooring tile has the shape of a parallelogram whose base is $24: cm$ and the corresponding height is $10: cm$. How many such tiles are required to cover a floor of area $1080$ $m^2$? 

maths perimeter and area of rectilinear figures parallelogram and rectangle area of parallelogram area of a parallelogram

  1. $20000$

  2. $35000$

  3. $45000$

  4. $65000$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Area of the parallelogram $=$ Base$\times $Height


So area of each tiles $=24\times 10=240 :cm^2$

Area of the floor $=1080 : m^2=(1080\times 100\times 100)  : cm^2$

$\therefore$ Required number of tiles $=\dfrac{\text{Area of the floor}}{\text{Area of each tiles}}=\dfrac{10800000}{240}=45000$
