(i) Perimeter of a rectangle $= 2(l+b) = 2(15+8) = 46 \ cm$

Area of a rectangle $= l \times b = 15 \times 8 = 120 \ cm^2$

Length of diagonal $= \sqrt{l^2+b^2} = \sqrt{15^2+8^2} = 17 \ cm$

(ii) Perimeter of a rectangle $= 2(l+b) = 2(20+15) = 70 \ m$

Area of a rectangle $= l \times b = 20 \times 15 = 300 \ m^2$

(iii) Perimeter of a rectangle $= 2(l+b) = 2(3.2+2.4) = 11.2 \ m$

Area of a rectangle $= l \times b = 3.2 \times 2.4 = 7.68 \ m^2$

Length of diagonal $= \sqrt{l^2+b^2} = \sqrt{3.2^2+2.4^2} = 4 \ m$

Question 8: The sides of a rectangular park are in the ratio $3 : 2$. If its area is $1536\ m^2$, find the cost of fencing it at $Rs.\ 23.50$ per meter.

Let the length $= 3x$ and breadth $= 2x$

Therefore $1536 = 3x \times 2x \Rightarrow x = 16 \ m$

Therefore Length $= 48 \ m$ and breadth $= 32 \ m$

Perimeter of a rectangle $= 2(l+b) = 2(48+32) = 160 \ m$

Cost of fencing $= 160 \times 23.50 = Rs. \ 3760$

$\\$

Therefore $384 = 2(7x+5x) \Rightarrow x = 16 \ m$

Therefore Length $= 112 \ m$ and breadth $= 80 \ m$

Area of the fiels $= 112 \times 80 = 8960 \ m^2$

Cost of reaping $= 8960 \times 1.25 = Rs. \ 11200$

$\\$

Question 12: A room $9.5\ m$ long and $6\ m$ wide is surrounded by a verandah $1.25\ m$ wide. Calculate the cost of cementing the floor of this verandah at $Rs. \ 28$ per sq. meter.

Area of outer perimeter $= (6+2 \times 1.25) \times (9.5 + 2 \times 1.25) = 8.5 \times 12 = 102 \ m^2$

Area of inner perimeter $= 9.5 \times 6 = 57 \ m^2$

Therefore area of the verandah $= 102 - 57 = 45 \ m^2$

Cost of cementing the verandah $= 45 \times 28 = Rs. \ 1260$

$\\$

Question 13: A rectangular grassy plot is $125\ m$ long and $74\ m$ broad. It has a path $2.5\ m$ wide all round it on the inside. Find the cost of leveling the path at $Rs.\ 6.80 \ per \ m^2$.

Area of inner perimeter $= (125 - 2 \times 2.5) \times (74 - 2 \times 2.5) = 120 \times 69 = 8280 \ m^2$

Area of outer perimeter $= 125 \times 74 = 9250 \ m^2$

Therefore area of the path $= 9250 - 8280 = 970 \ m^2$

Cost of leveling the path $= 970 \times 6.80 = Rs. \ 6596$

$\\$

Question 14: A rectangular plot of land measures $95\ m$ by $72\ m$. Inside the plot, a path of uniform width $3.5\ m$ is to be constructed all around. The rest of the plot is to be laid with grass. Find the total expense involved in constructing the path at $Rs. 46.50 \ per\ m^2$ and laying the grass at $Rs. \ 3.75 \ per \ m^2$.

Area of inner perimeter $= (95 - 2 \times 3.5) \times (72 - 2 \times 3.5) = 88 \times 65 = 5720 \ m^2$

Area of outer perimeter $= 95 \times 72 = 6840 \ m^2$

Therefore area of the path $= 6840 - 5720 = 1120 \ m^2$

Cost of constructing the path $= 1120 \times 46.50 = Rs. \ 52080$

Cost of laying the grass $= 5720 \times 3.75 = 21450 \ Rs.$

Total cost $= 52080 + 21450 = 73530 \ Rs.$

Find the area of the carpet and the area of the strip left uncovered. If the width of the carpet is $82\ cm$, find its cost at the rate of $Rs.\ 124$ per meter.

Area of carpet $= (22 - 2 \times 0.75) \times (15.5 - 2 \times 0.75) = 20.50 \times 14 = 287 \ m^2$

Area of outer perimeter $= 22 \times 15.5 = 341 \ m^2$

Therefore area of the strip left uncovered $= 341 - 287 = 54 \ m^2$

Length of the carpet needed $=$ $\frac{287}{0.82}$ $= 350 \ m$

Cost of laying the carpet $= 350 \times 124 = 43400 \ Rs.$

Total cost $= 52080 + 21450 = 73530 \ Rs.$

Area of road running parallel to the length $= 4 \times 75 = 300 \ m^2$

Area of road running parallel to the Breadth $= 4 \times 60 = 240 \ m^2$

Area of the road to be graveled $= 300 + 240 - 4 \times 4 = 524 \ m^2$

Cost of graveling $= 524 \times 14.50 = 7598 \ Rs.$

$\\$

Question 17: The length and breadth of a rectangular park are in the ratio $5 :2$. A $2.5\ m$ wide path running all around the outside of the park has an area of $305 \ m^2$. Find the dimensions of the park.

Let the length $= 5x$ and breadth $= 2x$

Area of outer perimeter $= (5x+2 \times 2.5) \times (2x + 2 \times 2.5) = (5x+5) \times (2x+5)$

Area of inner perimeter $= 5x \times 2x = 10x^2$

Therefore area of the path $\Rightarrow (5x+5)(2x+5) - 10x^2 = 305$

$\Rightarrow x =$ $\frac{280}{35}$

Hence length $= 5 \times$ $\frac{280}{35}$ $= 40 \ m$

Breadth $= 2 \times$ $\frac{280}{35}$ $= 16 \ m$
