A hall is in the shape of a parallelogram. One of the parallel walls measures 8 m. The perpendicular distance corresponding to that wall is 1.75 times the length of this wall. If the cost of carpeting the hall is   2 per m2 . Find the total cost of carpeting the hall.  


Options:
A .   224
B .   264
C .   642
D .   292
Answer: Option A
:
A

Area of parallelogram = Base × corresponding height 
Area of parallelogram = 8 × (1.75 × 8) 
Area of parallelogram = 112 m2 ​.
Total cost of carpeting the hall = Cost per m2 ×​ Area
=
2/m2 × 112 m2 = 224.
