## Geometry and Mensuration: Test 5

Congratulations - you have completed Geometry and Mensuration: Test 5. You scored %%SCORE%% out of %%TOTAL%%. You correct answer percentage: %%PERCENTAGE%% . Your performance has been rated as %%RATING%%
 Question 1
The length of a rectangular floor is twice its breadth. If Rs.256 is required to paint the floor at the rate of Rs.2 per square meters, then what would be the length of floor?
 A 16 metres B 8 metres C 12 metres D 32 metres
Question 1 Explanation:
Let the length be 2x units and breadth = x units.
Area = 256/2 =128 = 2x2
So breadth x= 8 and length = 16 units .
Correct option is (a)
 Question 2
The circumference of two circles Is 132 metres and 176 metres respectively. What Is the difference between the area of the larger circle and the smaller circle?
 A 1048 sq. metres B 1076 eq. metres C 1078 sq. metres D 1090 sq. metres
Question 2 Explanation:
$\displaystyle \begin{array}{l}Let\text{ }the\text{ }radius\text{ }of\text{ }larger\text{ }circle\text{ }be\text{ }R\text{ }m\\and\text{ }smaller\text{ }circle\text{ }be\text{ }r\text{ }m.~\\2\pi r=132\\=>r=21\\and\,2\pi r=176\\=>r=28m\\Difference\text{ }between\text{ }the\text{ }areas\\\frac{22}{7}\times ({{28}^{2}}-{{21}^{2}})\\=49\times 22=1078{{m}^{2}}~~~~~~~~~~~\end{array}$
 Question 3
What would be the cost of building a fence around a circular field with area equal to 32378.5 sq. metres, if the price per metre for building the fence was Rs.154?
 A Rs.84, 683 B Rs.86, 495 C Rs.79, 326 D Rs.98, 252
Question 3 Explanation:
$\begin{array}{l}\pi {{r}^{2}}=32378.5\\=>r=101.52\\2\pi r=2\times \frac{22}{7}\times 101.5\\=637.74\\Total\,\,\cos t\,=637.74\times 154=98212\end{array}$
 Question 4
The perimeter of a square is equal to twice the perimeter of a rectangle of length 8 cm, and breadth 7 cm. What is the perimeter of a semicircle whose diameter is equal to the side of the square? (Rounded off to the two decimal places)
 A 38.57 cms. B 23.57 cms. C 42.46 cms. D 47.47 cms.
Question 4 Explanation:
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(8+7) = 30 cm.
Perimeter of square = 30 X 2 = 60 cm.
Side of the square = 60/4 = 15 cm.
Radius of semicircle = 7.5 cm.
Perimeter of semicircle
$\pi r+2r=\frac{22}{7}\times 7.5+15=23.57+15=38.57cm$
 Question 5
The perimeter of a square is double the perimeter of a rectangle. The area of the rectangle is 240 sq. cm. What is the area of the square?
 A 100 sq. cm. B 36 sq. cm. C 81 sq. cm. D Cannot be determined
