Important Questions from Mensuration

1multiple choice

An isosceles triangle has equal sides 10 cm each and base 12 cm. Find its area.

Show answer

48 cm²

For an isosceles triangle, area = 1/4 × b × √(4a² - b²). Here a = 10 cm and b = 12 cm. So area = 1/4 × 12 × √(4 × 10² - 12²) = 3 × √(400 - 144) = 3 × √256 = 3 × 16 = 48 cm².

The perimeter of a rectangle is 96 cm and its length is 28 cm. Find its breadth and area.

Show answer

Breadth 20 cm, area 560 cm²

Use b = P/2 - l. Here P = 96 cm, so P/2 = 48 cm. Breadth = 48 - 28 = 20 cm. Area = l × b = 28 × 20 = 560 cm².

A square has diagonal 14√2 cm. Find its area and side.

Show answer

Side 14 cm, area 196 cm²

For a square, diagonal = s√2. Given diagonal = 14√2 cm, so s = 14 cm. Area = s² = 14² = 196 cm².

4multiple choice

The radii of two circles are 6 cm and 9 cm. Find the radius of a circle whose circumference equals the sum of their circumferences.

Show answer

15 cm

Sum of circumferences = 2π × 6 + 2π × 9 = 2π(6 + 9) = 2π × 15. So the required radius is 15 cm.
