Miscellaneous Practice Problems

Question 1.
A piece of wire is 36 cm long. What will be the length of each side if we form
(i) a square
(ii) an equilateral triangle
Solution:

Given the length of the wire = 36 cm
i) When a square is formed out of it
The perimeter of the square = 36 cm
4 × side = 36
side = \(\frac{36}{4}\) = 9 cm
Side of the square

ii) When an equilateral triangle is formed out of it, its perimeter = 36 cm
i.e., side + side + side = 36 cm .
3 × side = 36 cm
side = \(\frac{36}{3}\) = 12 cm
One side of an equilateral triangle = 12 cm

Question 2.
From one vertex of an equilateral triangle with a side of 40 cm, an equilateral triangle with 6 cm side is removed. What is the perimeter of the remaining portion? The perimeter of the remaining portion
Solution:

Question 3.
Rahim and Peter go for a morning walk, Rahim walks around a. square path of side 50 m and Peter walks around a rectangular path with a length of 40 m and a breadth of 30 m. If both of them walk 2 rounds each, who covers more distance and by how much?
Solution:
Distance covered by Rahim
= 50 × 4 m
= 200 m
If he walks 2 rounds, distance covered = 2 × 200 m
= 400 m
Distance covered by peter
= 2 (40 + 30) m
= 2(70)m
= 140 m
If he walks 2 rounds, distance covered = 2 × 140 m
= 280 m
∴ Rahim covers more distance by (400 – 280) = 120 m

Question 4.
The length of a rectangular park is 14 m more than its breadth. If the perimeter of the park is 200 m, what is its length? Find the area of the park.
Solution:
Let the length be b + 14 m
breadth = b
perimeter = 200
2 (l + b) = 200
2 (b + 14 + b) = 200
2 (2b + 14) = 200
28 + 4b = 200
4b = 200 – 28
4b = 172 m
b = \(\frac{172}{4}\)
b = 43 m
Length = b + 14
= 43 + 14
Length l = 57 m
Area = l × b units
= 57 × 43 m²
= 2451 m²

∴ Area = (40 × 20) cm² = 800 cm²
Area of rectangle = 800 cm²
Area of square = (side × side) units²
side = 10 cm
∴ Area of square = (10 × 10) cm² = 100 cm²
Required number of squares = \(\frac{\text { Area of Rectangle }}{\text { Area of } 1 \text { square }}=\frac{800 \mathrm{cm}^{2}}{100 \mathrm{cm}^{2}}\) = 8
8 squares can be formed.

Question 8.
The length of a rectangle is three times its breadth. If its perimeter is 64 cm, find the sides of the rectangle.
Solution:
Given perimeter of a rectangle = 64 cm
Also given length is three times its breadth.
Let the breadth of the rectangle = b cm
∴ Length = 3 × b cm
Perimeter = 64 m
i.e., 2 × (l + b) = 64 m
2 × (3b + b) = 64 m
2 × 4b = 64m
4b = \(\frac{64}{2}\) = 32 m
b = \(\frac{32}{4}\) = 8 m
l = 3 × b = 3 × 8 = 24 m
∴ Breadth of the rectangle = 8 m
Length of the rectangle = 24 m

Question 9.
How many different rectangles can be made with a 48 cm long string? Find the possible pairs of length and breadth of the rectangles.
Solution:
Length of the string to be made into rectangle = 48 cm

2 × (l + b) = 48 cm
l + b = \(\frac{48}{2}\)
l + b = 24 cm
Possible pairs of length and breadth are (1, 23), (2, 22) (3, 21), (4, 20), (5, 19),
(6, 18), (7, 17), (8, 16), (9, 15), (10, 14), (11, 13), (12, 12)
Number of different rectangles = 12.

Question 10.
Draw a square B whose side is twice of the square A. Calculate the perimeters of the squares A and B.
Solution:

Perimeter of A = s + s + s + s units = 4 s units
Perimeter of B = (2s + 2s + 2s + 2s) units
= 8s units = 2 (4s) units.
∴ The perimeter of B is twice the perimeter of A

Question 11.
What will be the area of a new square formed if the side of a square is made one – fourth?
Solution:
Let the side of square is s units then area = (s × s) units²
If the side of the new square is made one fourth then side = \(\left(\frac{1 \times s}{4}\right)\) units
Then area = \(\left(\frac{1 \times s}{4} \times \frac{1 \times s}{4}\right)\) units² = \(\frac{s \times s}{16}=\frac{1}{16}\) (s × s) units²
Area of the new square is reduced to \(\frac{1}{16}\) times to that of original area.

Question 12.
Two plots have the same perimeter. One . is a square of side 10 m and another is a rectangle of breadth 8 m. Which plot has the greater area and by how much?
Solution:
a = 10 m, b = 8 m
Perimeter of the square plot
= 4 a units
= 4 × 10 m
= 40 m
Perimeter of the rectangular plot
40 = 2 (l + b) units
40 = 2 (l + 8) m
40 = 2 l + 16
2 l = 40 – 16
2 l = 24
l = \(\frac{24}{2}\)
l = 12 m
Area of the square plot
= a × a sq units
= 10 × 10 m²
= 100 m²
Area of the rectangular plot
= l × b sq units
= 8 × 12 m²
= 96 m²
Square plot has the greater area by 100 m² – 96 m² – 4 m²

Question 13.
Look at the picture of the house given and find the total area of the shaded portion.

Solution:
Total area of the shaded region = Area of a right triangle + Area of a rectangle
= (\(\frac{1}{2}\) × b × h) + (l × b) cm²
= [(\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 3 × 4) + (9 × 6)] cm²
= (6 + 54) cm² = 60 cm²

Question 14.
Find the approximate area of the flower in the given square grid.

Question 6.
A store purchased pens at ₹ 216 per dozen. He paid ₹ 58 for conveyance and sold the pens at the discount of n per pen and made an overall profit of ₹ 50. Find the M.P of each pen.
Solution:
Cost of a dozen pens = ₹ 216
Paid for conveyance = ₹ 58
Cost price of 12 pens = 216 + 58 = ₹ 274 [∵ 1 dozen = 12]
Profit of 12 pens = ₹ 50
Profit = S.P – C.P
⇒ 50 = S.P – 274
⇒ S.P = 50 + 274 = ₹ 324
Also discount allowed per pen = ₹ 2
Discount for 12 pens = 2 × 12 = ₹ 24
S.P = M.P – Discount
⇒ 324 = M.P – 24
⇒ M.P = 324 + 24 = ₹ 348
Marked price for 12 pens = ₹ 348
M.P of a pen = \(\frac { 348 }{ 12 }\) = ₹ 29
M.P per pen = ₹ 29

Question 7.
A Vegetable vendor buys 10 kg of tomatoes per day at Rs 10 per kg, for the first three days of a week. 1 kg of tomatoes got smashed every day for those 3 days. For the remaining 4 days of the week, he buys 15 kg of tomatoes daily per kg. If for the entire week he sells tomatoes at Rs 20 per kg, then find his profit or loss for the week.
Solution:
Total tomatoes bought for 3 days = 3 × 10 = 30 kg
Cost of 1 kg = ₹ 10
Cost of 30kg tomatoes = 30 × 10 = ₹ 300
Total tomatoes bought for other 4 days = 4 × 15 = 60 kg
Cost of 1 kg = ₹ 8
Cost of 60 kg tomatoes = 60 × 8 = ₹ 480
Total cost of 90 kg tomatoes = 300 + 480 = ₹ 780
C.P = ₹ 780
Tomatoes smashed = 3 kg
Total kg of Tomatoes for sale = 90 – 3 = 87 kg
S.P of 1 kg tomatoes = ₹ 20
S.P of 87 kg tomatoes = 87 × 20 = ₹ 1740
Here S.P > C.P
Profit = S.P – C.P = 1740 – 780 = ₹ 960
Profit = ₹ 960

Question 8.
An electrician buys a used T.V for ₹ 12,000 and a used Fridge for ₹ 11,000. After spending ₹ 1000 on repairing the T.V and ₹ 1500 on painting the Fridge, he fixes up the M.P of T.V as ₹ 15,000 and that of the Fridge as ₹ 15,500. If he gives each ₹ 1000 discount oh each find his profit or loss.
Solution:
(i) Cost of a T.V = ₹ 12,000
Paid for repair = ₹ 1,000
C.P of the T.V = 12,000 + 1000 = ₹ 13,000
M.P of the T.V = ₹ 15,000
Discount on a TV = ₹ 1000
S.P = M.P – Discount = 15,000 – 1000 = ₹ 14,000
Here S.P > C.P
Profit = S.P – C.P = 14,000 – 13,000 = ₹ 1,000
Profit on the T.V = ₹ 1,000
(ii) Cost of the Fridge = ₹ 11,000
Painting charge = ₹ 1500
C.P of the Fridge = 11000 + 1500 = ₹ 12,500
M.P of the Fridge = ₹ 15,500
Discount allowed = ₹ 1000
S.P = M.P – Discount = ₹ 15,500 – ₹ 1000 = ₹ 14,500
Here also S.P > C.P
Profit = ₹ 14,500 – ₹ 12,500 = ₹ 2000
Total profit = Profit on T.V + Profit on Fridge = ₹ 1000 + ₹ 2000 = ₹ 3000
Profit = ₹ 3000
