Mensuration: Rectangle

MENSURATION: RECTANGLE


In mathematics, a rectangle represents a closed geometrical shape which has four sides and four right angles, right angle means 90 degrees.

Properties of Rectangle

  1. l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle
  2. d is the diagonal of the rectangle
  3. All internal angle is 90 degree
  4. Parallel side are equal

Important Formula for Rectangle

Area Of Rectangle (A)

Area(A) = Length(l) X Width(w)
Example: Calculate the area of whose length is 4cm and with is 3cm
Given: Length(l) = 4cm
            Width(w) = 3cm
Formula:
           Area(A) = Length(l) X Width(w)
           Area(A) = 4cm X 3cm
          Area(A) = 12 cm^2
Area of given rectangle is 12 cm^2

Perimeter of Rectangle(P)

Perimeter(P) = 2 x (Length(l) + Width(w))
Example: Calculate the perimeter of whose length is 4cm and with is 3cm
Given: Length(l) = 4cm
            Width(w) = 3cm
Formula:
            Perimeter(P) = 2 x (Length(l) + Width(w))
            Perimeter(P) = 2 x (4cm + 3cm)
            Perimeter(P) = 2 x 7cm
            Perimeter(P) = 14 cm  
The perimeter of the given rectangle is 14 cm

Diagonal of Rectangle(D)

Diagonal(D) = Sqrt(Length(l)^2 + Width(w)^2)
Example: Calculate the diagonal of whose length is 4cm and with is 3cm
Given: Length(l) = 4cm
            Width(w) = 3cm
Formula:
            Diagonal(D) = Sqrt(Length(l)^2 + Width(w)^2)
            Diagonal(D) = Sqrt(4cm^2 + 3cm^2)
            Diagonal(D) = Sqrt(16cm^2+9cm^2)
            Diagonal(D) = Sqrt(25cm^2)
            Diagonal(D) = 5cm
Diagonal of given rectangle is 5 cm

SSC Practice Problem Solution

SSC Practice Problem Solution In this post, we will discuss solution of  SSC Practice Problem . Question 1  The efficiency of (A + B) = 100/24 = (25/6)% The efficiency of (A + B + C) = 100/8 = (25/2)% The efficiency of C = 25/2 – 25/6 = (50/6)% Hence, C can alone finish this job in = 100/(50/6) = 12 days Answer: 12 days option (1) Question 2  Original price = Rs. 6000; Price after discount = 6000 – 1200 = Rs. 4800; Price after raising service contract = 4800 + 480 = Rs. 5280 Answer: Rs. 5280 option (2) Question 3  Suppose the received money by A, B, and C is respectively 5x, 6x, and 9x. 5x = 450; => x = 90; Hence, the total money = 20x = 20*90 = Rs. 1800; Answer: Rs. 1800 option (2) Question 4 Suppose the Cost price of the bag= Rs. x; Hence, x + 0.15x = 230; => x = Rs. 200; Selling price after selling on 20% = 200 + 20% of 200 = Rs. 240 Answer: Rs. 240 option (3) Question 5  The required percentage ...

Average

Average In this post, We will learn about average.  Average of any collection of data is the sum of data divide by number of data. Average = (Sum of observations /  Number of observations) Please write comments if you find anything incorrect, or you want to share more information about the topic discussed above.  problems The arithmetic mean of x, y and z is 80, and that of x, y, z, u and v is 75, where u=(x+y)/2 and v=(y+z)/2. If x ≥ z, then the minimum possible value of x is (CAT 2018) As specified in the question mean of x and y and z is 80 x+y+z=3*80 mean of x, y, z,u,v is 75 x+y+z+u+v=75*5 2u=x+y 2v=y+z x+y+z+((x+y+y+z)/2)=75*5 y+3(x+y+z)=75*10 y=750-720 y=30 since x+y+z=240 y=30 so x+z=210 since x>=z so minimum value of x=210/2 = 105 Problem2: In first 5 inings sehwag has scored at average of 40.

Complex Number

Complex Number While solving the equation of the form  a x 2 + b x + c = 0 , the roots of the equations can take three forms which are as follows: Two Distinct Real Roots Similar Root No Real roots (Complex Roots) The introduction of complex numbers in the 16th century made it possible to solve the equation  x 2 + 1 = 0 . The roots of the equation are of the form  x = ± − 1 ‾ ‾ ‾ √  and no real roots exist. Thus, with the introduction of complex numbers, we have Imaginary roots. We denote  − 1 ‾ ‾ ‾ √  with the symbol i, where i denotes Iota (Imaginary number). An equation of the form z= a+ib, where a and b are real numbers, is defined to be a complex number. The real part is denoted by Re z = a and the imaginary part is denoted by Im z = b. Algebraic Operation on Complex numbers: Addition of two complex numbers Subtraction of two complex number Multiplication of two complex number Division of two complex number Power of Iota (i) ...

Logarithm

Logarithm When a x   = N , then we say that x = logarithm of N to the base a and write it as x = log a N . In simple words, it represents the power to which a number must be raised. Let me expand on that by giving a simpler example. If we are asked, what would be the result if ‘a’ is multiplied with itself ‘b’ times; then your answer would be x = a*a*a*…. b (times). This can also be written as a^b. This is also known as ‘a raised to the power of b’ If we are asked, which number multiplied with itself ‘b’ times, will result in a; then you are asked for the value of x such that x*x*x*… b(times) = a => x^b = a => x = a^(1/b) This is also known as ‘bth root of a’ If swe are asked, how many times should you multiply ‘a’ with itself to get ‘b’, that is where the concept of logarithm comes into the picture. You are asked for the value of ‘x’ such that a*a*a…. x (times) = b => x = Log  a  b This is also known as ‘ Log b to the base a’ ...
