1. The area and width of a rectangle are 768 cm2 and 16 cm respectively. Find the perimeter.

____________________________ cm

2. Area of the shaded region is ____________________________ sq m

3. Find the area of the shaded region. ____________________________ m2

4. The perimeter of a rectangular plot is 180 m and its breadth is 38 m. Find its length and area.

length = 52 m, area = 2704 m2

none of these
length = 90 m, area = 3420 m2
length = 52 m, area = 1976 m2

5. Length and breadth of a rectangular field are 460 m and 250 m. Find its area and perimeter.

area = 1,51,000 m2, perimeter = 1420 m

area = 1,15,000 m2, perimeter = 1420 m
area = 11,500 m2, perimeter = 1420 m
area = 1,15,000 m, perimeter = 710 m

6. The cost of fencing a square field at Rs. 15 per meter is Rs.432. Find the length of each of the side and its area.
 side = 7.2 m., area = 51.84 sq. m.
side = 28.8 m., area = 51.84 sq. m.
side = 7.2 sq. m., area = 51.84 m
side = 7.2 m, area = 51.84 m

7. The side of a square is 21 m and a rectangular field has its sides in the ratio 4:3. If the perimeter of the square and

rectangle both are equal, find its length and breadth.

length = 24 m, breadth = 81 m
length = 42 m, breadth = 18 m
length = 18 m, breadth = 24 m
length = 24 m, breadth = 18 m

8. A playground has length of 75 m and breadth of 20 m. Find the cost of levelling it at the rate of Rs. 3.50 per sq m, and the
cost of fencing it at the rate of Rs. 5.25 per meter.

cost of levelling= Rs. 5250, cost of fencing= Rs. 498.75

cost of levelling= Rs. 7895, cost of fencing= Rs. 997.50
cost of levelling= Rs. 5250, cost of fencing= Rs. 665
cost of levelling= Rs. 5250, cost of fencing= Rs. 997.50

9. Jack owns a square land of size 300 m x 300 m. If he keeps 7 hectares and sells the remaining at the rate of Rs. 900 per
sq. meter, find the cost?

Rs. 6,30,000
Rs. 1,80,00,000
Rs. 1,80,000
Rs. 63,000
10. A room of length 8.6 m and breadth 2.8 m is to be laid with square marbles of size 10 cm x 10 cm. Find how many no of
tiles can be laid and the cost at the rate of Rs. 5/ tile.

no. of tiles = 12040, cost = Rs. 2408

no. of tiles = 2408, cost = Rs. 12040
no. of tiles = 240, cost = Rs. 1204
no. of tiles = 240800, cost = Rs. 1204000

11. If the side of a square is halved , then its area is equal to half of the original area.

FALSE
TRUE

12. The area of a ring lying between the circumference of two concentric circles is 205354.29 sq cm. whose radii are 242 cm

and 352 cm.

FALSE
TRUE

13. When you double both length and breadth of a rectangle, 8 times you should multiply the area?

FALSE
TRUE
14. The total cost of cultivating a rectangular field at Rs. 1.50 per square meter is Rs. 1833. If the breadth is 26 m, the cost of
fencing the field at Rs. 7.50 per meter is Rs. 1095.

TRUE
FALSE

15. 15588 envelopes can be made out of a sheet of paper 324 cm by 172 cm, then each envelope requires a piece of paper of

size 18 cm by 12 cm?

FALSE
TRUE
