the area of a rectangular field is 0.5 hectares. if one of the sides of the field is 40 m. find the other side
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
the area of a rectangular field is 0.5 hectares. and one of the sides of the field is 40 m.
To find:-
find the other side of the rectangular field?
Solution:-
Given that
The one side of the rectangular field = 40 m
Let the other side of the rectangular field be X m
Area of a rectangle = length×breadth sq.units
=>Area of the rectangular field
=>40×X sq.m
=>40X sq.m
Area of the rectangular field = 40X sq.m
According to the given problem
Area of the rectangular field = 0.5 hectares
We know that
1 hectare = 10000 sq.m
0.5 hectares = 0.5×10000 sq.m
0.5 hectares = 5000 sq.m
Now,
40 X = 5000
=>X= 5000/40
=>X=500/4
=>X=125 m
The value of X = 125 m
The other side = 125 m
Answer:-
The another side of the given rectangular side is 125 m
Check:-
The two sides of the rectangular field are
40 m and 125m
Area of the rectangular field
= 40×125
=>5000 sq.m
We know that 10000 sq.m = 1 hectare
=>1 sq.m = 1/10000 hectares
=>5000 sq.m = 5000/10000 hectares
=>5/10 hectares
=>0.5 hectares
Verified the given relation.
Used formulae:-
- Area of a rectangle = Length ×Breadth
- 1 hectare = 10000 sq.m
- 1 sq.m = 1/10000 = 0.0001 hectares
