Questions Related to perimeter and area of rectilinear figures

One side of a square is $4$ ft long. What is its area?

  1. 6 $ft^2$

  2. 4$ft^2$

  3. 8 $ft^2$

  4. 16 $ft^2$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Area of a square = $side \times  side$
one side = 4 ft
Area = $4^2$
Area = $16$ $ft^2$

The perimeter of a rhombus is 100 cm and one of the diagonals is 40 cm, Then the area of the rhombus is

  1. 1000 cm$^2$

  2. 500 cm$^2$

  3. 1200 cm$^2$

  4. 600 cm$^2$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Given that, perimeter of rhombus is $100cm$ and one diagonal $40cm$

Perimeter of rhombus=4$\times $side

So side$=25cm$

And we know that in a rhombus diagonal divides rhombus in two eauilateral triangle.

Area of one triangle:- s$=(25+25+40)/2 =45$

So area=(s$\times $(s-a)$\times $ (s-b)$\times $(s-c))^1/2

= (45$\times $(45-40)$\times $(45-25)$\times $(45-25))^1/2

$= 300cm^2$

So total area is 300$\times $2=600cm^2

 

Hence, this is the answer.

A square field is 40m long. The perimeter of the square field is (in cm)

  1. $14000 \, cm$

  2. $16000 \, cm$

  3. $12000 \, cm$

  4. $8000 \, cm$


Correct Option: B

By converting the $0.0287m^2$ into the $cm^2$, the answer will be

  1. $28.7 \, cm^2$

  2. $2870 \, cm^2$

  3. $287 \, cm^2$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: C

If $1 \, m^2$ of a certain plot in a certain area costs Rs. $1500,$ how much does $1$ hectare cost?

  1. $15 \times 10^5$

  2. $15 \times 10^6$

  3. $15 \times 10^7$

  4. $15 \times 10^4$


Correct Option: B

By converting the 80.2km into the hectare, the answer will be

  1. 0.08020ha

  2. 8020ha

  3. 802ha

  4. 0.802ha


Correct Option: B

By converting the $4.8mm^{2}$ into the $m^2,$ the answer will be

  1. $4.8 \times 10^{-7} m^2$

  2. $4.8 \times 10^{-6} m^2$

  3. $4.8 \times 10^{-8} m^2 $

  4. $4.8 \times 10^{-5}m^2$


Correct Option: B
