Answer:
FOR FIRST QUESTION
Step-by-step explanation:
LENGTH OF COLOURED TAPE NEEDED WILL BE 8cm (2*4) AS BORDER WILL BE DRAWN ON FOUR SIDES
THE SIDES WILL BE 58 BY 58 AS 2cm HAS BEEN BORDERED FROM EACH SIDE
Given :
the length of the sides of the square = 60 cm
The width of the colored tape = 2 cm
To Find :
the length of the tape needed for a sheet.
and the side of the divided square.
Explanation:
Length of each sides of a square sheet = 60 cm.
Students had to make a border by using a colored tape.
Width of the coloured tape = 2 cm
(a) Length used for the two parallel sides = 60 × 2
= 120 cm
Now the remaining length for other two sides = (60-4) × 2
= 56 × 2 = 112 cm
Total length of the tape used for border = 120 + 112 = 232 cm
The 232 cm long tape needed for the border.
(b) After making border the remaining length of the sides
= 60 - 4 = 56 cm
Each side of the square into which the sheet has been divided
=
= 28 cm
(a) The 232 cm long tape needed for the border.
(b) Each side of the divided square is 28 cm.
