Step-by-step explanation:
ok Solutions:
(a) Perimeter of triangle = 3 + 4 + 5
= 12 cm
(b) Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3 × side
= 3 × 9
= 27 cm
(c) Perimeter of isosceles triangle = 8 + 8 + 6
= 22 cm
7. Find the perimeter of a triangle with sides measuring 10 cm, 14 cm and 15 cm.
Solutions:
Perimeter of triangle = 10 + 14 + 15
= 39 cm
∴ The perimeter of triangle is 39 cm
8. Find the perimeter of a regular hexagon with each side measuring 8 m.
Solutions:
Perimeter of hexagon = 6 × 8
= 48 m
∴ Perimeter of regular hexagon is 48 m
9. Find the side of the square whose perimeter is 20 m.
Solutions:
Perimeter of square = 4 × side
20 = 4 × side
Side = 20 / 4
Side = 5 m
∴ The side of the square is 5 m
10. The perimeter of a regular pentagon is 100 cm. How long is its each side?
Solutions:
Perimeter of regular pentagon = 100 cm
5 × side = 100 cm
Side = 100 / 5
Side = 20 cm
∴ Side of the pentagon is 20 cm
11. A piece of strings is 30 cm long. What will be the length of each side if the string is used to form:
(a) a square?
(b) an equilateral triangle?
(c) a regular hexagon?
Solutions:
(a) Perimeter of square = 30 cm
4 × side = 30
Side = 30 / 4
Side = 7.5 cm
(b) Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 30 cm
3 × side = 30
Side = 30 / 3
Side = 10 cm
(c) Perimeter of a regular hexagon = 30 cm
6 × side = 30
Side = 30 / 6
Side = 5 cm
12. Two sides of a triangle are 12 cm and 14 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is 36 cm. What is its third side?
Solutions:
Let x cm be the third side
Perimeter of triangle = 36 cm
12 + 14 + x = 36
26 + x = 36
x = 36 – 26
x = 10 cm
∴ The third side is 10 cm
13. Find the cost of fencing a square park of side 250 m at the rate of ₹ 20 per metre.
Solutions:
Side of square = 250 m
Perimeter of square = 4 × side
= 4 × 250
= 1000 m
Cost of fencing = ₹ 20 per m
Cost of fencing for 1000 m = ₹ 20 × 1000
= ₹ 20,000
14. Find the cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 175 cm and breadth 125 m at the rate of ₹ 12 per metre.
Solutions:
Length = 175 cm
Breadth = 125 m
Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 (Length + Breadth)
= 2 (175 + 125)
= 2 (300)
= 2 × 300
= 600 m
Cost of fencing = 12 × 600
= 7200
∴ Cost of fencing is ₹ 7,200
15. Sweety runs around a square park of side 75 m. Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with length 60 m and breadth 45 m. Who covers less distance?
Solutions:
Perimeter of square = 4 × side
= 4 × 75
= 300 m
∴ Distance covered by Sweety is 300 m
Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 (Length + Breadth)
= 2 (60 + 45)
= 2 (105)
= 2 × 105
= 210 m
∴ Distance covered by Bulbul is 210 m
Hence, Bulbul covers less distance than Sweety.
16. What is the perimeter of each of the each of the following figures? What do you infer from the the answers?
Solutions:
(a) Perimeter of square = 4 × side
= 4 × 25
= 100 cm
(b) Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (40 + 10)
= 2 × 50
= 100 cm
(c) Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)
= 2 (30 + 20)
= 2 (50)
= 2 × 50
= 100 cm
(d) Perimeter of triangle = 30 + 30 + 40
= 100 cm
All the figures have same perimeter.
17. Avneet buys 9 square paving slabs, each with a side of 1 / 2 m. He lays them in the form of a square.
(a) What is the perimeter of his arrangement [fig 10.7(i)]?
(b) Shari does not like his arrangement. She gets him to lay them out like a cross. What is the perimeter of her arrangement [(Fig 10.7 (ii)]?
(c) Which has greater perimeter?
(d) Avneet wonders if there is a way of getting an even greater perimeter. Can you find a way of doing this? (The paving slabs must meet along complete edges i.e they cannot be broken.)
Solutions:
(a) Side of square = 3 × side
= 3 × 1 / 2
= 3 / 2 m
Perimeter of Square = 4 × 3 / 2
= 2 × 3
= 6 m
(b) Perimeter = 0.5 + 1 + 1 + 0.5 + 1 + 1 + 0.5 + 1 + 1 + 0.5 + 1 + 1
= 10 m
(c) The arrangement in the form of cross has greater perimeter
(d) Perimeters greater than 10 m cannot be
