Question 1.
Two gates are fitted at the entrance of a library. To open the gates easily, a wheel is fixed at 6 feet distance from the wall to which the gate is fixed. If one of the gates is opened to 90°, find the distance moved by the wheel (π = 3.14).

Amswer:
Let A be the position of the wall AC be the gate in initial position and AB be position when it is moved 90°.
Now the arc length BC gives the distance moved by the wheel.

Question 3.
Find the area of the house drawing given in the figure.

Answer:
Area of the house = Area of a square of side 6 cm + Area of a rectangle with l = 8cm, b = 6 cm + Area of a ∆ with b = 6 cm and h = 4 cm + Area of a parallelogram with b = 8 cm, h = 4 cm
= (side × side) + (l × b) + (1/2 × b × h) + bh cm²
= (6 × 6) + (8 × 6) + (1/2 × 6 × 4) + (8 × 4) cm²
= 36 + 48 + 12 + 32 cm²
= 128 cm²
Required Area = 128 cm²

Question 5.
Guna has fixed a single door of width 3 feet in his room where as Nathan has fixed a double door, each of width 1 1/2 feet in his room. From the closed position, if each of the single and double doors can open up to 120°, whose door takes a minimum area?
Answer:
Width of the door that Guna fixed = 3 feet.
When the door is open the radius of the sector = 3 feet

Angle covered = 120°
∴ Area required to open the door

= 3π feet²

(b) Width of the double doors that Nathan fixed = 1 1/2 feet.
Angle described to open = 120°
Area required to open = 2 × Area of the sector
z
= 1/2 (3π) feet²
∴ The double door requires the minimum area.

 

Question 6.
In a rectangular field which measures 15 m x 8m, cows are tied with a rope of length 3m at four corners of the field and also at the centre. Find the area of the field where none of the cow can graze. (π = 3.14).
Answer:
Area of the field where none of the cow can graze = Area of the rectangle – [Area of 4 quadrant circles] – Area of a circle

Area of the rectangle = l × b units²
= 15 × 8m² = 120m²
Area of 4 quadrant circles = 4 × 1/4 πr² units
Radius ofthe circle = 3m
Area of 4 quadrant circles = 4 × 1/4 × 3.14 × 3 × 3 = 28.26 m²
Area of the circle at the middle = πr² units
= 3.14 × 3 × 3m² = 28.26m²
∴ Area where none of the cows can graze
= [120 – 28.26 – 28.26]m² = 120 – 56.52 m² = 63.48 m²

 

Question 7.
Three identical coins, each of diameter 6 cm are placed as shown. Find the area of the shaded region between the coins. (π = 3.14) (√3 = 1.732)

Answer:
Given diameter of the coins = 6 cm
∴ Radius of the coins = 6/2 = 3 cm
Area of the shaded region = Area of equilateral triangle – Area of 3 sectors of angle 60°

Question 8.
Using Euler’s formula, find the unknowns.

Answer:
Euler’s formula is given by F + V – E = 2
(i) V = 6, E = 14
By Euler’s formula = F + 6 – 14 = 2
F = 2 + 14 – 6
F = 10

(ii) F = 8,E = 10
By Euler’s formula = 8 + V – 10 = 2
V = 2 – 8 + 10
V = 4

 

(iii) F = 20, V = 10
By Euler’s formula = 20 + 10 — E = 2
30 – E = 2
E = 30 – 2.
E = 28
