Question: 1
A rectangular park 60 m long and 40 m wide has two concrete crossroads running in the middle of the part and rest of the park has been used as a lawn. If the area of the lawn is 2109 sq.m, then what is the width of the road?
(A) 2 m
(B) 2.91 m
(C) 3 m
(D) 5.82 m
Ans; C
Area of the park = (60 × 40) m2 = 2400 m2
Area of the lawn = 2109 m2
∴ Area of the crossroads = (2400 - 2109) m2 = 291 m2
Let the width of the road be x metres. Then
60x + 40x – x2 = 291
⇔ x2 - 100x + 291 = 0 ⇔ (x = 97)
⇔ (x – 3) = 0 ⇔ x = 3.
Question: 2
The perimeters of two squares are 40 cm and 32 cm. Find the perimeter of a third square whose area is equal to the difference of the areas of the two squares.
(A) 10 cm
(B) 12 cm
(C) 24 cm
(D) 36 cm
Ans: C
Side of first square = $$({40}/{4})$$cm = 10 cm.
Side of second square = $$({32}/{4})$$cm = 8 cm.
Area of third square = [(10)2 - (8)2]cm2 = (100 - 64) cm2 = 36 cm2.
Side of third square = $$√36$$ cm = 6 cm.
∴ Required perimeter = (6 × 4) cm = 24 cm.
Question: 3
The diameter of the driving wheel of a bus is 140 cm. How many revolutions per minute must the wheel make in order to keep a speed of 66 kmph?
(A) 100
(B) 150
(C) 250
(D) 350
Ans: C
Distance to be covered in 1 min = $$({66 × 1000} / {60})$$m = 1100 m.
Circumference of the wheel = $$(2 × {22}/{7} × 0.70)$$m = 4.4 m.
∴ Number of revolutions per min. $$({1100} / {4.4})$$ = 250.
Question: 4
The sides of a triangle are in the ratio of $${1/2} : {1/3} : {1/4}$$. If the perimeter is 52 cm, then the length of the smallest side is
(A) 9 cm
(B) 12 cm
(C) 14 cm
(D) 16 cm
Ans: B
Ratio of sides = $${1/2} : {1/3} : {1/4}$$ = 6 : 4 : 3.
Perimeter = 52 cm. So, sides are
$$(52 × {6}/{13})$$cm, $$(52 × {4}/{13})$$ cm and $$(52 × {3}/{13})$$ cm.
So, a = 24 cm, b = 16 cm, c = 12 cm.
∴ Length of smallest side = 12 cm.
Question: 5
The circumference of a circular race track, 14 m wide, is 440 m. Find the radius of the outer circle.
(A) 64
(B) 74
(C) 84
(D) 94
Ans: C
Let inner radius be r metres.
Then, 2Πr = 440 ⇒ r = $$(440 × {7}/{44})$$ = 70 m.
∴ Radius of outer circle = (70 + 14) m = 84 m.
