Answer: Option D. -> 1188 cm2
Radius and height of a right circular cylinder is 7 cm and 20 cm respectively
Total surface area of right circular cylinder :
$$\eqalign{
& = 2\pi rh + 2\pi r^2 \cr
& = 2\pi r\left( {h + r} \right) \cr
& = 2 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times 7\left( {20 + 7} \right) \cr
& = 2 \times 22 \times 27 \cr
& = 1188\,sq.\,cm \cr} $$

Answer: Option B. -> Rs. 1650
Length of the fence =$$4\pi R$$
Where, $$R = \frac{{21}}{2}m$$
$$\eqalign{
& 4\pi R \cr
& = \left( {4 \times \frac{{22}}{7} \times \frac{{21}}{2}} \right)m \cr
& = 132\,m \cr} $$
Cost of fencing :
$$\eqalign{
& = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\left( {132 \times \frac{{25}}{2}} \right) \cr
& = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.1650}} \cr} $$
Length of the fence =$$4\pi R$$
Where, $$R = \frac{{21}}{2}m$$
$$\eqalign{
& 4\pi R \cr

Answer: Option B. -> 20 m × 5 m
We have :
$$\eqalign{
& 2b + l = 30 \cr
& \Rightarrow l = 30 - 2b \cr} $$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Area}} = {\text{100 }}{m^2} \cr
& \Rightarrow l \times b = 100 \cr
& \Rightarrow b\left( {30 - 2b} \right) = 100 \cr
& \Rightarrow {b^2} - 15b + 50 = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow \left( {b - 10} \right)\left( {b - 5} \right) = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow b = 10{\text{ or }}b = 5 \cr} $$
When, b = 10, $$l$$ = 10 and when b = 5, $$l$$ = 20
Since the garden is rectangular, so its dimension is 20 m × 5 m
We have :
$$\eqalign{
& 2b + l = 30 \cr
& \Rightarrow l = 30 - 2b \cr} $$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Area}} = {\text{100 }}{m^2} \cr
& \Rightarrow l \times b = 100 \cr
& \Rightarrow b\left( {30 - 2b} \right) = 100 \cr
& \Rightarrow {b^2} - 15b + 50 = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow \left( {b - 10} \right)\left( {b - 5} \right) = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow b = 10{\text{ or }}b = 5 \cr} $$
When, b = 10, $$l$$ = 10 and when b = 5, $$l$$ = 20
Since the garden is rectangular, so its dimension is 20 m × 5 m
Answer: Option A. -> 4.5%
Let the actual length and width of the rectangle be $$l$$ and b respectively.
Then, measured length :
$$ = 100\% {\text{ of }}l = \frac{{11l}}{{10}}$$
Measured width :
$$ = 95\% {\text{ of }}b = \frac{{19b}}{{20}}$$
Actual area = $$lb$$
Measured area :
$$\eqalign{
& = \left( {\frac{{11l}}{{10}} \times \frac{{19b}}{{20}}} \right) \cr
& = \frac{{209lb}}{{200}} \cr} $$
Error in measurement :
$$\eqalign{
& = \left( {\frac{{209lb}}{{200}} - lb} \right) \cr
& = \frac{{9lb}}{{200}} \cr} $$
∴ Error % :$$\eqalign{
& = \left( {\frac{{9lb}}{{200}} \times \frac{1}{{lb}} \times 100} \right)\% \cr
& = 4.5\% \cr} $$

Answer: Option B. -> 20 cm
Let the side of the square be x cm
Then, its area = x2 cm2
Area of the rectangle = 3x2 cm2
∴ 40 × $$\frac{3}{2}$$ × x = 3x2
⇔ x = 20 cm
Let the side of the square be x cm
Then, its area = x2 cm2
Area of the rectangle = 3x2 cm2
∴ 40 × $$\frac{3}{2}$$ × x = 3x2
⇔ x = 20 cm

Answer: Option B. -> 2 : 1
$$\eqalign{
