Perimeter and Area Class 7 Extra

Questions Very Short Answer
Type
Question 1.
The side of a square is 2.5 cm. Find its perimeter and
area.
Solution:
Side of the square = 2.5 cm
Perimeter = 4 × Side = 4 × 2.5 = 10 cm
Area = (side)2 = (4)2 = 16 cm2

Question 2.
If the perimeter of a square is 24 cm. Find its area.
Solution:
Perimeter of the square = 24 cm
Side of the square = 24 cm = 6 cm
4
Area of the square = (Side)2 = (6)2 cm2 = 36 cm2

Question 3.
If the length and breadth of a rectangle are 36 cm
and 24 cm respectively. Find
(i) Perimeter
(ii) Area of the rectangle.
Solution:
Length = 36 cm, Breadth = 24 cm
(i) Perimeter = 2(l + b) = 2(36 + 24) = 2 × 60 = 120 cm
(ii) Area of the rectangle = l × b = 36 cm × 24 cm =
864 cm2

Question 4.
The perimeter of a rectangular Weld is 240 m. If its
length is 90 m, Wnd:
(i) it’s breadth
(ii) it’s area.
Solution:
(i) Perimeter of the rectangular Weld = 240 m
2(l + b) = 240 m
l + b = 120 m
90 m + b = 120 m
b = 120 m – 90 m = 30 m
So, the breadth = 30 m.
(ii) Area of the rectangular Weld = l × b = 90 m × 30 m
= 2700 m2
So, the required area = 2700 m2

Question 5.
The length and breadth of a rectangular Weld are
equal to 600 m and 400 m respectively. Find the cost
of the grass to be planted in it at the rate of ₹ 2.50 per
m 2.
Solution:
Length = 600 m, Breadth = 400 m
Area of the Weld = l × b = 600 m × 400 m = 240000 m2
Cost of planting the grass = ₹ 2.50 × 240000 = ₹
6,00,000
Hence, the required cost = ₹ 6,00,000.

Question 6.
The perimeter of a circle is 176 cm, Wnd its radius.
Solution:
The perimeter of the circle = 176 cm

Question 7.
The radius of a circle is 3.5 cm, Wnd its circumference
and area.
Solution:
Radius = 3.5 cm
Circumference = 2πr

Question 8.
Area of a circle is 154 cm2, Wnd its circumference.
Solution:
Area of the circle = 154 cm2

Question 9.
Find the perimeter of the Wgure given below.

Solution:
Perimeter of the given Wgure = Circumference of the
semicircle + diameter
= πr + 2r
= 22
7 ×7+2×7
= 22 + 14
= 36 cm
Hence, the required perimeter = 36 cm.

Question 10.
The length of the diagonal of a square is 50 cm, Wnd
the perimeter of the square.

Solution:
Let each side of the square be x cm.
x2 + x2 = (50)2 [Using Pythagoras Theorem]
2x2 = 2500
x2 = 1250

−−−−−−−−−−−−−
x = √1250 = √2 × 5 × 5 × 5 × 5
x = 5 × 5 × √2 = 25√2
The side of the square = 25√2 cm
Perimeter of the square = 4 × side = 4 × 25√2 =
100√2 cm

Questions Short Answer Type
Question 11.
A wire of length 176 cm is Wrst bent into a square and
then into a circle. Which one will have more area?
Solution:
Length of the wire = 176 cm
Side of the square = 176 ÷ 4 cm = 44 cm
Area of the square = (Side)2 = (44)2 cm2 = 1936 cm2
Circumference of the circle = 176 cm

Since 2464 cm2 > 1936 cm2

Hence, the circle will have more area.

Question 12.
In the given Wgure, Wnd the area of the shaded
portion.

Solution:
Area of the square = (Side)2 = 10 cm × 10 cm = 100
cm2
Area of the circle = πr2
= 22
7 × 3.5 × 3.5
= 77
2 cm
2

= 38.5 cm2
Area of the shaded portion = 100 cm2 – 38.5 cm2 =
61.5 cm2

Question 13.
Find the area of the shaded portion in the Wgure given
below.

Solution:
Area of the rectangle = l × b = 14 cm × 14 cm = 196
cm2
Radius of the semicircle = 14
2 = 7 cm
Area of two equal semicircle = 2 × 12 πr2
= πr2
= 22
7 ×7×7
= 154 cm2
Area of the shaded portion = 196 cm2 – 154 cm2 =
42 cm2

Question 14.
A rectangle park is 45 m long and 30 m wide. A path
2.5 m wide is constructed outside the park. Find the
area of the path.

Solution:
Length of the rectangular park = 45 m
Breadth of the park = 30 m
Area of the park = l × 6 = 45m × 30m = 1350 m2
Length of the park including the path = 45 m + 2 × 2.5
m = 50 m
Breadth of the park including the path = 30 m + 2 ×
2.5 m = 30m + 5m = 35m
Area of the park including the path = 50 m × 35 m =
1750 m2
Area of the path = 1750 m2 – 1350 m2 = 400 m2
Hence, the required area = 400 m2.

Question 15.
In the given Wgure, calculate:
(а) the area of the whole Wgure.
(b) the total length of the boundary of the Weld.

Solution:
Area of the rectangular portions = l × b = 80 cm × 42
cm = 3360 cm2
Area of two semicircles = 2 × 12 πr2 = πr2
= 22
7 × 21 × 21
= 22 × 3 × 21
= 1386 cm2
Total area = 3360 cm2 + 1386 cm2 = 4746 cm2
Total length of the boundary of Weld = (2 × 80 + πr +
πr) cm
= (160 + 22 22
7 × 21 + 7 × 21)
= (160 + 132) cm
= 292 cm
Hence, the required (i) area = 4746 cm2 and (ii) length
of boundary = 292 cm.

Question 16.
How many times a wheel of radius 28 cm must
rotate to cover a distance of 352 m?
(Take π = 22
7 )
Solution:
Radius of the wheel = 28 cm
Circumference = 2πr = 2 × 22
7 × 28 = 176 cm
Distance to be covered = 352 m or 352 × 100 =
35200 m
Number of rotation made by the wheel to cover the
given distance = 35200
176 = 200
Hence, the required number of rotations = 200.

Question 17.
A nursery school playground is 160 m long and 80 m
wide. In it 80 m × 80 m is kept for swings and in the
remaining portion, there are 1.5 m wide path parallel
to its width and parallel to its remaining length as
shown in Figure. The remaining area is covered by
grass. Find the area covered by grass. (NCERT
Exemplar)

Solution:
Area of the playground = l × b = 160 m × 80 m =
12800 m2
Area left for swings = l × b = 80m × 80m = 6400 m2
Area of the remaining portion = 12800 m2 – 6400 m2
= 6400 m2
Area of the vertical road = 80 m × 1.5 m = 120 m2
Area of the horizontal road = 80 m × 1.5 m = 120 m2
Area of the common portion = 1.5 × 1.5 = 2.25 m2
Area of the two roads = 120 m2 + 120 m2 – 2.25 m2 =
(240 – 2.25) m2 = 237.75 m2
Area of the portion to be planted by grass = 6400 m2
– 237.75 m2 = 6162.25 m2
Hence, the required area = 6162.25 m2.

Question 18.
Rectangle ABCD is formed in a circle as shown in
Figure. If AE = 8 cm and AD = 5 cm, Wnd the
perimeter of the rectangle. (NCERT Exemplar)

Solution:
DE (Radius) = AE + AD = 8 cm + 5 cm = 13 cm
DB = AC = 13 cm (Diagonal of a rectangle are equal)
In right ∆ADC,
AD2 + DC2 = AC2 (By Pythagoras Theorem)
(5)2 + DC2 = (13)2
25 + DC2 = 169
DC2 = 169 – 25 = 144
DC = √144 = 12 cm
Perimeter of rectangle ABCD = 2(AD + DC)
= 2(5 cm + 12 cm)
= 2 × 17 cm
= 34 cm

Question 19.
Find the area of a parallelogram-shaped shaded
region. Also, Wnd the area of each triangle. What is
the ratio of the area of shaded portion to the
remaining area of the rectangle?

4cm
10cm

Solution:
Here, AB = 10 cm
AF = 4 cm
FB = 10 cm – 4 cm = 6 cm
Area of the parallelogram = Base × Height = FB × AD
= 6 cm × 6 cm = 36 cm2
Hence, the required area of shaded region = 36 cm2.
Area ∆DEF = 12 × b × h
= 12 × AF × AD
= 12 × 4 × 6
= 12 cm2
Area ∆BEC = 12 × b × h
= 12 × GC × BC
= 12 × 4 × 6
= 12 cm2
Area of Rectangle ABCD = l × b = 10 cm × 6 cm = 60
cm2
Remaining area of Rectangle = 60 cm2 – 36 cm2 = 24
cm2
Required Ratio = 36 : 24 = 3 : 2

Question 20.
A rectangular piece of dimension 3 cm × 2 cm was
cut from a rectangular sheet of paper of dimensions
6 cm × 5 cm. Find the ratio of the areas of the two
rectangles. (NCER T Exemplar)

Solution:
Length of the rectangular piece = 6 cm
Breadth = 5 cm
Area of the sheet = l × b = 6 cm × 5 cm = 30 cm2
Area of the smaller rectangular piece = 3 cm × 2 cm =
6 cm2
Ratio of areas of two rectangles = 30 cm2 : 6 cm2 = 5

Question 21.
In the given Wgure, ABCD is a square of side 14 cm.
Find the area of the shaded region.
(Take π = 22
7 )

Solution:
PQ = 12 AB = 12 × 14 = 7 cm
PQRS is a square with each side 7 cm
Radius of each circle = 72 cm
Area of the quadrants of each circle = 14 × πr2
Area of the four quadrants of all circles

Area of the square PQRS = Side × Side = 7 cm × 7 cm

= 49 cm2
Area of the shaded portion = 49 cm2 – 38.5 cm2 =
10.5 cm2
Hence, the required area = 10.5 cm2.

Question 22.
Find the area of the following polygon if AB = 12 cm,
AC = 2.4 cm, CE = 6 cm, AD = 4.8 cm, CF = GE = 3.6
cm, DH = 2.4 cm.

Solution:
BE = AB – AE
= 12 cm – (AC + CE)
= 12 cm – (2.4 cm + 6 cm)
= 12 cm – 8.4 cm
= 3.6 cm

Area of the polygon AFGBH = Area of ∆ACF + Area of

rectangle FCEG + Area of ∆GEB + Area of ∆ABH
= 3.6 cm2 + 4.32 cm2 + 21.6 cm2 + 6.48 cm2 + 14.4
cm2
= 50.40 cm2
Hence, the required area = 50.40 cm2.
