Practice Time<\/strong>
(\u0430)Arbaz plans to tile his kitchen floor with green square tiles. Each side of the tile is 10 cm. His kitchen is 220 cm in length and 180 cm wide. How many tiles will he need?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Area of floor = length x width
= 220 x 180 = 39600 square cm Area of a tile = Side x Side
= 10 x 10 = 100 square cm Number of tiles = Area of floor + Area of tile
= 39600 + 100 = 396 tiles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(b)The fencing of a square garden is 20 m in length. How long is one side of the garden?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Perimeter of garden = 20 m
Hence, length of each side = 20 + 4 = 5 m<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(c) A thin wire 20 cm long is formed into a rectangle. If the width of this rectangle is 4 cm, what is its length?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Perimeter = 20 cm
Width = 4 cm
We know, perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
Hence, 2 (length + breadth) = 20
Or, length + 4 = 20\u00f72 = 10
Or, length = 10 \u2013 4 = 6 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(d)A square carromboard has a perimeter of 320 cm. How much is its area?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Perimeter = 320 cm
We know, perimeter = 4 x Side Hence, 4 x Side = 320 cm Or, Side = 320 4 = 80 cm
Now, area = Side x Side
= 80 x 80 = 6400 square cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(e)How many tiles like the triangle given here will fit in the white design? Area of design =\u2026\u2026\u2026. square cm<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"NCERT<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


(Hint: This triangle is half of the cm square)<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> As is clear from the above figure, the design needs 6 such triangles.
Area of design = 6 x 1\/2 = 3 square cm.
Make your own designs of area 4 square cm and 6 square cm.
As two triangles make 1 square cm so,
For a design of 4 square cm. we need 4\u00d72 = 8 triangles
And for a design of 6 square cm we need 6 x 2 = 12 triangles

(f) Sanya, Aarushi, Manav and Kabir made greeting cards. Complete the table for their cards:<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"NCERT<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Ans.<\/strong>Sanya
We have length = 10 cm and width = 8 cm
Perimeter = 2(Lehgth + Width)
Manav = 2(10 + 8)
= 2 x 18 = 36 cm Area = Length x Width
= 10 x 8 = 80 square cm
We have length = 11 cm and Perimeter = 44 cm
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
or, 44 = 2(Length + Width)
or, Length + Width = 44 2 = 22
or, 11 + Width = 22
Hence, Width = 22 \u2013 11 = 11 cm \u2013
Now, area = Length x Width 1
Aarushi
We have = 11\u00d711 = 121 square cm width = 8 cm and area = 80 square cm
Area = Length x Width Or, Length x 8 = 80
Or, Length = 80 -5- 8 = 10 cm
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
= 2(10 + 8) = 2 x 18 = 36 cm
Kabir
We have Perimeter = 40 cm and area = 100 square cm Hence, 2(Length + Width) = 40 cm Or, Length + Width = 40 + 2 = 20
And, Length x Width = 100
Let us factorize 100 in such a way that both factors add up to 20 100 = 2 x 50; But 2 + 50 = 52 100 = 4 x 25; But 4 + 25 = 29 100 = 5 x 20; But 5 + 20 = 25 100 = 10 x 10 and 10 + 10 = 20 So, Length = 10 cm and width = 10 cm

My Belt is Longest!<\/strong>
1.Take a thick paper sheet of length 14 cm and width 9 cm. You can also use an old postcard.<\/strong>
What is its area? What is its perimeter?<\/strong>
Now cut strips of equal sizes out of it.<\/strong>
Using tape join the strips, end to end, to make a belt.<\/strong>
How long is your belt?<\/strong>
What is its perimeter?<\/strong>
Whose belt is the longest in the class?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Area of rectangle = Length x Breadth
Hence, area of the paper sheet = 14 x 9
= 126 square cm Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
= 2(14 + 9)
= 2 x 23 = 46 cm
Now, let us cut the sheet in strips of following widths:
Strip of width 1 cm
We can have 9 strips of width 1 cm.
Joining 9 such strips will give a belt of length 9 x 14 = 126 cm
Strip of width IV2 cm
We can have 6 strips of width IV2 cm
Joining 6 such strips will give a belt of length 6 x 14 = 84 cm
Strip of width 3 cm
We can have 3 strips of width 3 cm
Joining 3 such strips will give a belt of length 3 x 14 = 42 cm Let us assume that I made the belt of 3 cm wide strips.
Then perimeter of the belt = 2(length + breadth) .
= 2(42 + 3)
= 2 x 45 = 90 cm
Observation: Strips of the least width will make the longest belt in the class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Page 150<\/strong>
Discuss<\/strong>
1.Why did some of your friends get longer belts than others?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Because they made belts from thinner strips than others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.Is the area of your belt the same as the area of the postcard? Why or why not?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Area of the belt of 3 cm wide strip = length x breadth = 3 x 42 = 126 square cm Yes, this is equal to the area of the postcard.
In fact, area of all the belts would be equal to the area of the postcard; because every part of the postcard is being used in making a belt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.What will you do to get the longer belt next time?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> By making thinner belts; I can get longer belt the next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Number of complete squares = 9 Number of more than half squares = 7 Number of half squares = 2 Area of shape Q
= (2 + 2 x 1\/2 + 7)
= 10 square cm Area of shape R
= (9 + 1 x 1\/2 + 7)
= 16 (1\/2) square cm
So, shape P has the biggest area
Perimeter of this shape is 15 cm (because the length of the thread is 15 cm)
(b) Shape Q has the smallest area.
Perimeter of this shape = 15 cm (because the length of the thread is 15 cm) Area of triangle = (6 + 0 x 1\/2 + 6)
= 12 square cm
Area of square = (9 + 0 x 1\/2 + 7)
= 16 square cm
Area of rectangle = (10 + 5 x 1\/2 + 0)
= 12 square cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King\u2019s Story<\/strong>
The king was very happy with carpenters Cheggu and Anar. They had made a very big and beautiful bed for him. So as gifts the king wanted to give some land to Cheggu, and some gold to Anar.
Cheggu was happy. He took 100 metres of wire and tried to make different rectangles.
He made a 10 m x 40 m rectangle. Its area was 400 square metres.
So he next made a 30 m x 20 m rectangle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCERT 5th Maths Chapter 11, class 5 Maths Chapter 11 solutions<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.What is its area? Is it more than the first rectangle?<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Area of rectangle = 30 x 20 = 600 square metres Yes, it is more than the first rectangle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.What other rectangles can he make with 100 metres of wire. Discuss which of these rectangles will have the biggest area.<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Following rectangles are possible:
5 m x 45 m = 225 square m
15 m x 35 m = 525 square m
25 m x 25 m = 625 square m
The square will have the biggest area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.Cheggu\u2019s wife asked him to make a circle with the wire. She knew it had an area of 800 square metres. <\/strong>Why did Cheggu not choose a rectangle? Explain.<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Because none of the rectangle will have an area of 800 square meter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Page 158<\/strong>
So Anar also tried many different ways to make a boundary for 800 square metres of land.He made rectangles A, B and C of different sizes. Find out the length of the boundary of each. How much gold wire will he get for these rectangles?<\/strong>
(a)40 m x 20 m<\/strong>
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 2 (40 + 20) = 2 x 60 = 120 m<\/strong>
(b)80 m x 10 m<\/strong>
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 2(80 + 10) = 2 x 90 = 180 m<\/strong>
(c)800 m x 1 m<\/strong>
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 2 (800 + 1) = 2 x 801 = 1602 m<\/strong>
But then Anar made an even longer rectangle See how long!<\/strong>
(d)8000 m x 0.1 m<\/strong>
Perimeter = 2(length + breadth) = 2(8000 + 0.1) = 2 x 8000.1 = 16000.2 m<\/strong>
1.Now do you understand why the king fainted!!<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> The king fainted because he could not arrange so much of gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.Can you make a rectangle with a still longer boundary? I made a rectangle 1 cm wide and 80000 m long. Imagine how long that boundary will be!!! With that much gold wire I can become a king!<\/strong>
Ans.<\/strong> Perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
2(80000 m + 1 cm)
= 2(80000 m + 1\/100 m)
= 2(80000 m + 0.01 m)
= 2 x 80000.01 m = 16000.02 m<\/p>\n\n\n\n
