Sample Questions

1multiple choice

What is the area of a square with side 8 meters?

Show answer

64 sq meters

Area of square = side × side = 8 × 8 = 64 sq meters. Common mistake: Using perimeter formula (4 × 8 = 32) or not squaring the side.

2multiple correct

Which of the following are correct formulas for finding perimeter? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Rectangle: 2 × (length + breadth), Square: 4 × side, Triangle: sum of all three sides

Perimeter formulas: Rectangle = 2(l+b), Square = 4s, Triangle = a+b+c. The other options are area formulas, not perimeter.

3multiple choice

A rectangular field is 25 m long and 18 m wide. How much fencing is needed to go around it once?

Show answer

86 m

Fencing needed = perimeter = 2 × (25 + 18) = 2 × 43 = 86 m. Common mistake: Calculating area (25 × 18 = 450) or adding only length and breadth.

4multiple choice

If the perimeter of a square is 32 cm, what is the length of each side?

Show answer

8 cm

If perimeter = 32 cm, then 4 × side = 32, so side = 32 ÷ 4 = 8 cm. Common mistake: Dividing by 2 instead of 4.
