Question 14

Question 15
Two regular Hexagons of perimeter 30cm each are joined as shown in below figure. Find the perimeter of the new figure

(1)
These are straight forward question using the below formula of perimeter of rectangle,triangle,square
Perimeter of a rectangle = $2 \times (length + breadth)$
Perimeter of a square = $4 \times \text {length of its side}$
Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = $3 \times \text{length of a side}$
Perimeter of an triangle = $\text {sum of the lenght of the sides}$
(a) 30 cm
(b) 24 cm
(c) 11cm
(d) 40 cm
(e) 42 cm
(f) 39 cm
(g) 48 cm
(h) 25 cm
(2)
(a) 10 cm as third side= Perimeter - sum of the other two sides
(b) 10 cm as side of square = perimeter /4
(c) 30 cm as side of equilateral triangle = Perimeter/3
(d) 5 cm as Lenght + breadth = Perimter/2
(3) As Perimeter of a rectangle = $2 \times (length + breadth)$
Perimeter=302 m
(4) Distance= $10 \times Perimeter$
Now perimeter = 2(50+20) = 140m
Therefore,Distance= 1400m
(5) Distance= $3 \times Perimeter$
Now perimeter = 4*60 = 240m
Therefore,Distance= 720 m
(6) Pentagon has five equals sides So perimeter =$5 \times \text{lenght of the side} = 5 \times 6=30 cm$
(7) 100 m
(8) Area of rectangle is given by =$L \times B$
(a) 28 sq cm
(b) 42 sq m
(c) 11 sq m
(d) .2 sq m

(9) Area of square is given by =$side \times side$
(a) 121 sq cm
(b) 625 sq cm
(c) 144 sq m

(10) Area of the floor = Lenght × width= 12 sq m
Area of single tile=.5 × .5 = .25 sq m
Number of times required= 12 /.25 = 48

(11) Here we need to convert both the lenght and width into same unit
So ,lenght = 2 m
Width=1m 25 cm=1.25 m
Area= 2 × 1.25 = 2.5 sq m

(12) L=4 m
W=3 m 50 cm =3.5 m
Area of carpet = 4 * 3.5 = 14 sq m

(13) Area= 300 sq m
length =50 m
Area = Lenght × width= 50 × width
Therefore,
50 × width =300
width= 6 m

(14) Splitting the figure as below

Area of the figure = Area AJIY + Area YWCB + Area DWUE + Area FUHG.
Area A J I Y = A J * J I = 3 * 3 = 9
Now, B Y = A B - Y A = 4 - 3 = 1
So, Area Y W C B = B Y * B C = 1 * 2 = 2
Next, D W = D C + C W = 2 + 1 = 3
Therefore, area D W U E = D W * D E = 3 * 3 = 9
Similarly, U H = I H - I U = 4 - 2 = 2
G H = F U and F U = E U + F E
= D W + F E = 3 + 1= 4
Area F U H G = U H * G H = 2 * 4 = 8
Therefore, the area of the figure = 9 + 2 + 9 + 8
= 28sq units

(15) Side of Hexagon = perimeter / 6 = 30/6 =5 cm
Now Perimeter of the given figure= 10 × side = 50 cm
