Question 1.
What would you need to find area or perimeter, to answer the following?
1. how much space does a black-board occupy?
2. What is the length of wire require to fence a rectangular flower bed?
3. What distance would you cover by taking two rounds of a triangular park?
4. How much plastic sheet do you need to cover a rectangular swimming pool?
Solution:
1. Perimeter of rectangular black board = 2 x (l + b)
2. Length of the wire = Perimeter of rectangular flower bed = 2 x (l + b)
3. Perimeter of rectangular park = 2(l + b).
4. Perimeter ofrectangular swimming pool = 2(l+b).

Question 1.
Experiment with several such shapes and cut-outs. You might find it useful to draw these shapes on squared sheets and compute their area and perimeter.
You have seen that increase in perimeter does not mean that area will also increase.
Question 2. Give two examples where the area increases as the perimeter increases.
Question 3. Give two examples where the area does not increase when perimeter increases.
Solution:
1. Area of rectangle = l × b
= 3 cm × 2 cm
= 6 cm².

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (l + b)
= 2 (3 + 2) = 2 × 5 = 10 cm. 2.

2. (a) Area of rectangle = l × b
= 4 cm × 3 cm = 12 cm².

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
= 2 (4 cm + 3 cm)
= 2 × 7 cm = 14 cm.

(b) Area of square (Fig.) = Side × side = 2 cm × 2 cm = 4 cm².
Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 4 × 2 cm = 8 cm.

3. Area of square = 3 cm × 3 cm = 9 cm²
Perimeter of square = 4 × 3 cm = 12 cm.
Hence area decreases as the perimeter increases.

Question 1.
Each of the following rectangles of the length 6 cm and the breadth 4 cm is composed of congurent polygons. Find the area of each polygon.

Solution:
Since, the two parts are congruent to each other.
So, the area of any part is equal to the area of the other part.
Therefore the area of congurent polygons 1
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) (The area of rectangle)
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) (6 cm × 4 cm) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 24 cm² = 12 cm²

Question 1.
Find the area of following parallelograms :
(i)

(ii) In a parallelogram ABCD, AB = 7.2 cm and the prependicular from con AB is 4.5 cm.
Solution:
Area of parallelogram = base × height
(i) Here, base = 8 cm,
height = 3.5 cm
∴ Area = 8 × 3.5 = 28.0 cm²

(ii) base = 8 cm,
height = 2.5 cm
Area = 8 × 2.5 = 20.0 cm²

(iii) Here base = 7.2 cm
height = 4.5 cm
(ii) Area of parallelogram = base × height
= 7.5 × 2.5 = 32.40cm²

Question 1.
Try the above activity with dirrerent types of triangles.
Solution:
Area of parallelogram = base × height
or, Area of parallelogram
= [ \(\frac{1}{2}\) × b × h + \(\frac{1}{2}\) × b × h ]
i.e. In a parallelogram,
Area of each triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (b × h)

Question 2.
Take different paralelograms. Divide each of the parallelograms into two triangles by cutting along any of its diagonals. Are the triangles congruent?
Solution:
In a parallelogram have two triangle, ΔABD and ΔBDC.

In a parallellogram,
AB = DC andAD = BC
and AB || DC and AD || BC.
Hence, AB = DC, B = BD (common)
and AD = BC
∴ ∆ABD ≅ ∆BDC (SSS congruency)
So, by CPCT all angles are equal.

Question 1.
(a) Which square has the larger perimeter ?
(b) Which is larger, perimeter of smaller square or the circumference of the circle?

Solution:
(a) Perimeter of square = 4 × side According to fig. outer square is larger perimeter than inner square.
(b) Perimeter or circumference of circle
= 2πr [π = 22/7]
and perimeter of square = 4 × side
If side of square = diameter of circle = 14 cm
hence radius of circle = \(\frac{14}{2}\) = 7 cm
Now, Perimeter of square = 4 × 7 = 28 cm
and circumference of circle = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 7
= 44 cm.
Hence, perimeter of square is smaller than circumference of circle.

Question 1.
Draw circles of different radii on a graph paper. Find the area by counting the number of squares. Also find the area by using the formula. Compare the two amswer.


Solution:
(i) radius of circle = 1 cm
d = 2cm
hence, side of square = 2 cm
Area of square = (side)²
= (2)² = 4 cm²

(ii) r = 2 cm, ∴ d = 4 cm
Area of Square = (4)² = 16cm²

(iii) r = 3 cm, ∴ d = 6 cm
Area of Square = (6)² = 36 cm²
If the area by counting the number of square and compare the answer, we get.
Area circle = Area of Square

Question 1.
Convert the following:
(i) 50 cm² in mm²
(ii) 50 ha in m²
(Hi) 110 m² in cm²
(iv) 1,000 cm² in m²
Solution:
(i) ∵ 50 cm² = 50 × 100 mm²
= 5000 mm²

(ii) ∵ 1 hectare = 10,000 m²
∴ 2 hectare = 2 × 10,000 m²
= 20,000 m²

(iii) ∵ 1 m² = 10,000 cm²
∴ 10 m² = 10 × 10,000 cm²
= 1,00,000 cm²

(iv) ∵ 10000 cm² = 1 m²
∴ 1² = \(\frac{1}{10000}\)m²
∴ 1000 cm² = \(\frac{1}{10000}\) m² × 1,000
= \(\frac{1}{10}\)cm² = 0.1 m²
