Subject: Mathematics
Scenario: Sam, Tim, Elle and Vinni participated in
Mathematical Garden competition. In this they
have to make a garden with the application of
Mathematics. They asked their teacher for help.
Their teacher suggested to form a garden of
quadrilateral shape. Teacher asked them to stand
at the four corners(vertex) such that they form a
quadrilateral. The order for them to stand has been
decided as Sam, Elle, Tim and Vinni. Teacher had
given the distance between Sam and Tim as 16m
whereas between Elle and Vinni as 30malso the
distance between consecutive positions are equal.
Now, the teacher had asked the students to
complete the garden in 10 days
Question:3) The students thought of
planting rose plants at the distance
between Sam-Tim and Elle-Vinni .A
Ficus plant at the centre of these.
Calculate the distance of Ficus plant
from Elle?
A)
15m
B)
13m
C)
11m
D)
12m
Answers
Given : the distance between Sam and Tim as 16m whereas between Elle and Vinni as 30m . also the distance between consecutive positions are equal
Order is Sam, Elle, Tim and Vinni.
Ficus plant at the centre of these
To Find : the distance of Ficus plant from Elle
(a) 15 m
(b) 13m
(c ) 11m
(d) 12m
Solution:
distance between Sam and Tim as 16m Diagonal
distance between Elle and Vinni as 30m Diagonal
the distance between consecutive positions are equal
Hence its a rhombus
Diagonal of rhombus bisect each other perpendicularly
Hence distance of Ficus plant from Elle = (1/2) distance between Elle and Vinni
= (1/2) 30
= 15 m
the distance of Ficus plant from Elle = 15 m
