762. The diagonals of rhombus are 18cm and 12 cm. Find the area of the rhombus










SHOW ANSWER
Correct Ans:96 sq. cm
Explanation:
Solution:
If d1 and d2 are the diagonals of the rhombus
Area of the rhombus = ( d1 x d2 ) / 2
Area = ( 18 x 12 ) / 2
= 216 / 2
= 108sq cm
If d1 and d2 are the diagonals of the rhombus
Area of the rhombus = ( d1 x d2 ) / 2

765. A coffee grower is going to package his coffee in cylindrical cans which will hold exactly 785 cubic inches of his product. If the cans are to be 10 inches in height, what must be the radius of the can ? (take pi = 3.14)










SHOW ANSWER
Correct Ans:5
Explanation:
Solution is
Given ,
Can is in Cylindrical shape
Cylindrical cans hold = Volume of Cylinder
=785 cu.inches
Height of can, h = 10 inches
To find radius of the can :

768. A hall is 15 m long and 12 m broad. If the sum of the areas of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the areas of four walls, the volume of the hall is










SHOW ANSWER
Correct Ans:1200
Explanation:
Solution is
Let , A hall is in the shape of cuboid as follows
Given l = 15 m
b = 12 m

Area of the floor [ since floor is in rectangular shape, we use area of rectangle ]
= l x b
= 15 x 12
Area of ceiling [ since ceiling is in rectangular shape, we use area of rectangle ]
= l x b
= 15 x 12
Sum of the Areas of four walls = 2 ( l + b ) * h
= 2 ( 15 + 12 ) * h
= 2 ( 27 ) * h
= 54 * h
Given ,
Ceiling of four walls = Area of the floor + Area of the sum of areas of four walls
=> ( 15 x 2 ) + ( 15 x 2 ) = 54 * h
=>2 ( 15 x 12 ) = 54 * h
=> 2 ( 180 ) = 54 * h
=> 360 = 54 * h
=> 360 / 54 = h
Volume of the hall = Volume of cuboid
= l x b x h
= 15 x 12 x ( 20 / 3)
= 5 x 12 x 20
= 1200 m3
Answer is 1200
Let , A hall is in the shape of cuboid as follows
Given l = 15 m
b = 12 m

Area of the floor [ since floor is in rectangular shape, we use area of rectangle ]
= l x b
= 15 x 12
Area of ceiling [ since ceiling is in rectangular shape, we use area of rectangle ]
= l x b
= 15 x 12
Sum of the Areas of four walls = 2 ( l + b ) * h
= 2 ( 15 + 12 ) * h
= 2 ( 27 ) * h
= 54 * h
Given ,
Ceiling of four walls = Area of the floor + Area of the sum of areas of four walls
=> ( 15 x 2 ) + ( 15 x 2 ) = 54 * h
=>2 ( 15 x 12 ) = 54 * h
=> 2 ( 180 ) = 54 * h
=> 360 = 54 * h
=> 360 / 54 = h
Volume of the hall = Volume of cuboid
= l x b x h
= 15 x 12 x ( 20 / 3)
= 5 x 12 x 20
= 1200 m3

=> l2 x b2 x h2= 9 x 16 x 25
=> (l x b x h )2 =9 x 16 x 25
=> l x b x h =
= 3 x 4 x 5
= 60

771. A cistern 6m long and 4 m wide contains water up to a depth of 1 m 25 cm. The total area of the wet surface is ?










SHOW ANSWER
Correct Ans:49
Explanation:
Solution is
Let l = 6 m
b = 4 m
h = 1m25 cm
1 m = 100 cm
1 cm = 1 / 100 m
25 cm = 25 / 100
= 1/ 4 m
= 0.25 m
= 1m + 0.25 cm
= 1.25 m
Area of the wet surface = 2 (lb+bh+lh)-lb =2 x ( bh + lh ) + lb
= 2 x ( 4 x 1.25 + 6 x 1.25) + 6 x 4
= 2 x (5 + 7.5) + 24
= 2 x ( 12.5 ) + 24
= 25 + 24
= 49
Answer is 49
Let l = 6 m
b = 4 m
h = 1m25 cm
1 m = 100 cm
1 cm = 1 / 100 m
25 cm = 25 / 100
= 1/ 4 m
= 0.25 m
= 1m + 0.25 cm
= 1.25 m
Area of the wet surface = 2 (lb+bh+lh)-lb =2 x ( bh + lh ) + lb
= 2 x ( 4 x 1.25 + 6 x 1.25) + 6 x 4
= 2 x (5 + 7.5) + 24
= 2 x ( 12.5 ) + 24

Explanation:
Solution is :
Let l, b and h be the length, breadth and height of the cuboid respectively.
l x b = 9 ,
b x h = 16
and h x l = 25 Mul.
The above equations we get l x b x b x h x l x h = 9 x 16 x 25 (l x b x h)2
= 9 x 16 x 25 l x b x h
= 3 x 4 x 5 = 60
Let l, b and h be the length, breadth and height of the cuboid respectively.
l x b = 9 ,
b x h = 16
and h x l = 25 Mul.
The above equations we get l x b x b x h x l x h = 9 x 16 x 25 (l x b x h)2
= 9 x 16 x 25 l x b x h
= 3 x 4 x 5 = 60

780. Area of the base of a cuboid 49 sq m, area of side face and other side face are 64 sq m and 25 sq m respectively. Find the volume of the cuboid










SHOW ANSWER
Correct Ans:504
Explanation:
Given
Let l, b and h be the length, breadth and height of the cuboid respectively
Area of the base = l x b = 49 ---> (1)
Area of side face = b x h = 64 ----> (2)
Area of other side face = h x l = 25 ----> (3)
On multiplying equations (1), (2) and (3), we get
l x b x b x h x l x h = 49 x 64 x 25
=> (l x b x h)^2 = 49 x 64 x 25
=> (l x b x h) = sqrt(49 x 64 x 25)
=> l x b x h = 7 x 8 x 5
= 280
Volume of cuboid = l x b x h = 280
Answer is 280
