PQRS is a quadrilateral in which PQ=52cm, QR=52cm, RS=8cm, SP=6cm, PSR=PQR=90. Then its area is


  1.     40.4 cm2
  2.     46.4 cm2
  3.     32.4 cm2
  4.     49 cm2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 49 cm2
:
D

PQRS Is A Quadrilateral In Which PQ=5√2cm, QR=5√2cm, RS=...
Area of right angled triangle ΔPQR 
=12×Base×Height=12×52×52=25 cm2


Area of right angled triangle ΔPSR
=12×8×6=24 cm2


Area of quadrilateral PQRS
= Area of ΔPQR+ΔPSR=49 cm2


Question 52.


The Capacity Of A Soda Can Be Calculated Using The Formula....


The capacity of a soda can be calculated using the formula.


  1.     2πr(r+h) 
  2.     2πr
  3.     πr2h
  4.     All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> πr2h
:
C

A soda can is a rough example of a cylinder.
The volume of a cylinder is πr2h.
The capacity of any vessel is its internal volume so, the capacity of a soda can be calculated using the formula πr2h.


Where,
r = base radius of the can


h = height of the can


Question 53.


The volume of a cube whose edge is 24 m is 1296 m3 .


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     πr2h
  4.     All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

Volume of cube = (edge)3
Hence the volume of cube with edge 24 m is (24)3
= 13824 m3.


Question 54.


An isosceles trapezium has an area of 36 cm2, the parallel sides are 12 cm and 6 cm respectively. The perimeter of the trapezium should be  


An Isosceles Trapezium Has An Area Of 36 Cm2, The Parallel S...


  1.     28 cm
  2.     32 cm
  3.     24 cm
  4.     20 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 28 cm
:
A

The area of a trapezium is given by:
A=12×(Sum of parallel sides)×(height)
36=12×(12+6)×h
h=4 cm
So now in the trapezium,
h=4 cm
a=b=6 cm
AB=CD[S-A-S congruency inAFB and DEC]
2AB+a=12 cm
2AB=126
AB=CD=3 cm
So now inABF,AB2+h2=d2
d2=32+42=25
d=5 cm
As the trapezium is isosceles, the slant sides of the trapezium are equal in length
d=c=5 cm
the perimeter of the trapezium
=(2×AB)+a+c+b+d
=(2×3)+6+5+6+5=6+22=28 cm


Question 55.


A cuboid whose length, breadth and height are equal is called a ___________.


  1.     Hexagon
  2.     Pentagon
  3.     Cube
  4.     Cuboid
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Cube
:
C

A cuboid whose length, breadth and height are equal is called a Cube. Cube is a special case of a cuboid in which all the sides are equal.


Question 56.


If the height of a cylinder is halved and its diameter is doubled then, the new volume is   the initial volume.


  1.     is equal to
  2.     is double of 
  3.     is three times of
  4.     is four times of
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> is double of 
:
B

Let the radius of a cylinder be 'r' and the height of a cylinder be 'h'.
Volume  of  cylinder=V=πr2hNew  radius=2rNew height=h2New volume=π(2r)2h2=2πr2hNew volume=2V


Question 57.


Every quadrilateral has two pairs of parallel sides.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     24 cm
  4.     20 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
A quadrilateral is a four- sided rectilinear figure and parallelogram is a four-sided plane rectilinear figure with opposite sides parallel. Square, rectangle are considered as parallelogram because both of them have opposite sides parallel. In trapezium, only one side is parallel hence, it is not considered as a parallelogram. Hence, every quadrilateral doesn't have two pairs of parallel sides.
