Let the length of plot be x meters
Its perimeter = 2 [length + breadth]
=2(x + 16) = (2x + 32) meters

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 15–Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Exercise 15B Question 1

Length of the rectangle is 21. 5 meter
Area of the rectangular plot = length × breadth = ( 16 × 21.5 ) m2 = 344 m2
The length = 21.5 m and the area = 344 m2

Question 2:
Let the breadth of a rectangular park be x meter
Then, its length = 2x meter
∴ perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
=2(2x + x) = 6x meters
∴ 6x = 840 m [ ∵ 1 km = 1000 m]
⇒ x = 140 m
Then, breadth = 140 m and length = 280 m
Area of rectangular park = (length × breadth) = ( 140 × 280 ) m2 = 39200 m2
Hence, area of the park = 39200 m2

Question 3:
Let ABCD be the rectangle in which AB = 12 cm and AC = 37 m

Hence, the other side = 35 cm and the area = 420 cm2

Question 4:
Let the breadth of the plot be x meter
Area = Length × Breadth = (28 × x) meter
= 28x m2

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 15–Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Exercise 15B Question 4

Cost of carpet = Rs. 15 per meter
Cost of 288 meters of carpet = Rs. (15 × 288) = Rs. 4320

Question 8:
Area of floor = Length × Breadth
= (24 x 18) m2
Area of carpet = Length × Breadth
= (2.5 x 0.8) m2
Number of carpets =

Number of stones required = 

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 15–Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Exercise 15B Question 9


Hence, 1800 stones are required to pave the verandah.

Question 10:
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
2(l + b) = 56 ⇒ l + b = 28 cm
b = (28 – l) cm
Area of rectangle = 192 m2
l × (28 – l) = 192
28l – l= 192
l2 – 28l + 192 = 0
l2 – 16l – 12l + 192 = 0
l(l – 16) – 12(l – 16) = 0
(l – 16) (l – 12) = 0
l = 16 or l = 12
Therefore, length = 16 cm and breadth = 12 cm

Question 11:
Length of the park = 35 m
Breadth of the park = 18 m

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 15–Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Exercise 15B Question 11

Length of the park with grass =(35 – 5) = 30 m
Breadth of the park with grass = (18- 5) m = 13 m
Area of park with grass = (30 × 13) m2 = 390 m2
Area of path without grass = Area of the whole park – area of park with grass
= 630 – 390 = 240 m2
Hence, area of the park to be laid with grass = 240 m2

Question 12:
Length of the plot = 125 m
Breadth of the plot = 78 m

RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 15–Perimeter and Areas of Plane Figures Exercise 15B Question 12

Length of the plot including the path = (125 + 3 + 3) m = 131 m
Breadth of the plot including the path = (78 + 3 + 3) m = 84 m
Area of plot PQRS including the path
= (131 × 84) m2 = 11004 m2
Area of path = Area of plot PQRS – Area of plot ABCD
= (11004 – 9750) m2
= 1254 m2
Cost of gravelling = Rs 75 per m2
Cost of gravelling the whole path = Rs. (1254 × 75) = Rs. 94050
Hence, cost of gravelling the path = Rs 94050

Question 13:
Area of rectangular field including the foot path = (54 × 35) m2
Let the width of the path be x m
Then, area of rectangle plot excluding the path = (54 × 2x) × (35 × 2x)
Area of path = (54 × 35) + (54 × 2x) (35 × 2x)
(54 × 35) + (54 × 2x) (35 × 2x) = 420
1890 – 1890 + 108x + 70x – 4x2 = 420
178x – 4x2 = 420
4x2 – 178x + 420 = 0
2x2 – 89x + 210 = 0
2x2 – 84x – 5x + 210 = 0
2x(x – 42) – 5(x – 42) = 0
(x – 42) (2x – 5) = 0

Question 14:
Let the length and breadth of a rectangular garden be 9x and 5x.
