9. Convert the following:
i) 50 square cm in square mm.
ii) 10 square metre in square cm.

10. A rectangular park is 40 m long and 24 m wide. A path 3m wide is constructed outside the park. Find the area of the path?

ANSWERS:

1. Area of the parallelogram = b x h
Given b= 6 cm and h = 2 cm
Area = 6 x 2 = 12 sq. cm.

2. Given perimeter of a square = 480 m
Length of one side =480/4 = 120 m
Area = side x side = 120 x 120 = 14400 sq. m.

3. Given area = 120 sq. m and length = 20 m
b = Area/length = 120/20 = 6m.
Perimeter = 2 x (l +b) = 2 x (20 + 6) = 2 x 26 = 52 m

4. Given perimeter of a rectangular sheet = 120 cm and length = 30 cm
Let breadth be b then 2 x (30 + b) = 120
30 + b = 120/2 = 60
b = 60 – 30 = 30 cm
Area = side x side = 30 x 30 = 900 sq. cm (since it is a square)

5. Given area of the parallelogram = 48 q cm and breadth = 6cm
Area = b x h
48 = 6 x h
h = 48/6 = 8 cm.

6. Area of a triangle = 48 sq. cm and h = 4 cm
Area = ½ x b x h
48 = ½ x b x 4
96 = 4b
b = 96/4 = 24 cm

7. Circumference of a circle = Pi x d
Given d = 12 cm
C = 12 x 3.14 = 37.68cm

8. Circumference of a circle = 2 x pi x r
Given r = 28 cm
C = 2 x 22/7 x 28
= 176 cm

9. i. 50 sq. cm = 5000 sq. mm
ii. 10 sq. m = 100000 sq. cm

10. Let ABCD be the inner rectangle and PQRS be the outer rectangle.
To find the area of the path,
we need to find Area of PQRS – Area of ABCD.
We have PQ = 40 + 3 + 3 = 46m
PS = 24 + 3 + 3 = 30 m
Area of ABCD = l x b = 40 x 24 = 960 sq. m
Area of PQRS = l x b = 46 x 30 = 1380 sq. m
Area of the path = 1380 – 960 = 420 sq. m.
