Question 11. Perimeter is the distance covered along the boundary forming a/an________ when you go round the figure once. 
  1.    open figure
  2.    open curve
  3.    closed figure
  4.    line
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> closed figure
:
C
The length of the boundary of a closed figure is called its perimeter.
Hence, perimeter is the distance covered along the boundary forming a closed figure when you go round the figure once.
Question 12. Perimeter is not valid for
  1.    irregular and closed figures
  2.    all closed figures
  3.    closed regular figures
  4.    open figures
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> open figures
:
D
Perimeter is basically the total length of the boundary of afigure. This is valid for closed figures only (both regular and irregular).
Question 13. The area of given figure is:
The Area Of Given Figure Is:
  1.    41 sq. units
  2.    42 sq. units
  3.    24 sq. units
  4.    40 sq. units
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 42 sq. units
:
B
The Area Of Given Figure Is:Area of the figure = Area of A + Area of B + Area of C
Area of rectangle=length×breadth

A , B & C are rectangles
=3×6+4×(63)+2×6
=(3×6)+(4×3)+(2×6)
= 18+12+12=42sq.units
Question 14. The perimeter of a regular octagon with each side measuring 15 cm is
  1.    275 cm
  2.    100 cm
  3.    120 cm
  4.    None of above
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 120 cm
:
C
Perimeter = Sum of all the sides
Sinceit is a regular octagon, all sides will be equal.
Perimeter = 8 × length of a side
= 8× 15 cm
= 120 cm
Question 15. The perimeter of a square of side 15 cm will be:
  1.    90 cm
  2.    60 cm
  3.    225 cm
  4.    34 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 60 cm
:
B
Perimeter of square = 4 × length of side
= 4 × 15
= 60 cm
Question 16. Perimeter of any figure is
  1.    Sum of lengths of sides
  2.    Product of length of all sides
  3.    Square of lengths of all sides
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Sum of lengths of sides
:
A
The perimeter of a figure is the sum of lengths of all sides. In other words, perimeter is the distance covered along the boundary of the figure when you go round the figure once.
Question 17. Karan wants to cover the floor of his room with lavish tiles. His room is square in shape with sides of 6 m. The shopkeeper told him that the area of each tile is 0.5 m2. Can you tell how many tiles Karan should buy? 
  1.    108
  2.    36
  3.    72
  4.    144
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 72
:
C
Given a square room of side = 6 m.
Area of each tile = 0.5 m2
We know that, area of a square = Side × Side
Area of a square room
= 6 × 6 = 36 m2.

So, number of tiles required
= Area of roomArea of a single tile
= 360.5= 72
Hence, Karanshouldbuy 72 tilesto cover the floor of his room.
Question 18. Calculate the perimeter of the given figure -
Calculate The Perimeter Of The Given Figure -
  1.    29.2 cm
  2.    35.6 cm
  3.    30 cm
  4.    28.4 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 35.6 cm
:
B
Calculate The Perimeter Of The Given Figure -
In the given figure, sides FE and ED are unknown.
Now, FE + GH + CD = AB = 5.6 cm
1.2 + 0.8 + FE = 5.6
FE = 3.6 cm
GF = ED = 5.8 cm and AH = BC = 6.4cm

Perimeter of the figure is sum of all sides
= HG + GF + FE + ED + DC + CB + BA + AH
= 1.2cm + 5.8cm + 3.6cm + 5.8cm + 0.8cm + 6.4cm + 5.6cm + 6.4 cm
=35.6 cm
Question 19. The area of a rectangular piece of a board is 36 cm2. If the length is 4 cm, what is the width of the board?
  1.    26 cm
  2.    4 cm
  3.    9 cm
  4.    12 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 9 cm
:
C
Area of rectangle = length × breadth
36 = 4 × breadth
364 = breadth
breadth = 9 cm
Question 20. The given figure is a combination of
The Given Figure Is A Combination Of
  1.    a square and a triangle.
  2.    a triangle and a hexagon.
  3.    a triangle and a pentagon.
  4.    a pentagon and a square.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> a triangle and a pentagon.
:
C
The given figure has two parts, the lower part is a triangle and the upper part is a pentagon.
