B Correct answer
Explanation

Let side of square field be $x$.


Then area of square field $= x^2$


According to question

$x^2 = 30 \dfrac{1}{4} m^2$

$x^2 = \dfrac{121}{4} m^2$

$x = \dfrac{\sqrt{121}}{\sqrt{4}} m$

$x = \dfrac{11}{2}$

Hence side of square field is $5 \dfrac{1}{2} m$

C Correct answer
Explanation

Given area of square field $= 80 \dfrac{244}{729} m^2$


Let us assume that side of square field is x 


Then area of field $= x^2$

According to question

$x^2 = 80 \dfrac{244}{729} m^2$

$x^2 = \dfrac{58,564}{729} m^2$

$x = \dfrac{\sqrt{58,564}}{\sqrt{729}} m$

$x = \dfrac{242}{27} m$

Hence side of field is $8 \dfrac{26}{27} m$.

Option (C)

The area of a square field is $325\ m^2$. Find the approximate length of one side of the field. (upto 2 places of decimals) (in $m^2$)

  1. $19.03$
  2. $18.02$
  3. $18.03$
  4. $17.03$

C Correct answer
Explanation

We know area of any square is its side x side 

Let us assume that side of square field is x 
Then area of square field $= x^2$
According to question

$x^2 = 325 m^2$

$\Rightarrow x^2 = 325$

$x = \sqrt{325}$

So $x = 18.03$

Hence side of square field is $18.03 m$

option (C)

The area of a square playground is $256.6404$ square metres. Find the length of one side of the playground.

  1. $16.04$ metres
  2. $16.02$ metres
  3. $16.06$ metres
  4. $16.08$ metres

B Correct answer
Explanation

Let side of square play ground be x

Then area of square play ground will be $x^2$
According to question

$x^2 = 256.6404 m^2$

$x = \sqrt{256.6404} m$

$x = \dfrac{\sqrt{2566404}}{\sqrt{10000}} m$

$= \dfrac{1602}{100}$

Hence side of square is $16.02 m$

Option (B)
