Hence, the required breadth = 40 m.

Q.6 A wire is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is 40 cm and breadth is 22 cm. If the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side. Also find which shape encloses more area?

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

Given: Length = 40 cm,
Perimeter of the rectangle= Length of the wire
= 2(l + b) = 2(40 cm + 22 cm)
= 2 × 62 cm = 124 cm
Now, the wire is rebent into a square.
Perimeter = 124 cm
Or, 4 × side = 124
$?$side = $\frac{124}{4}$ cm = 31 cm
So, the measure of each side = 31 cm
Area of rectangular shape = l × b
= 40 cm x 22 cm = 880$c{m}^{2}$
Area of square shape = Side× side
= $\left(31{\right)}^{2}=961c{m}^{2}$
Since 961$c{m}^{2}>880c{m}^{2}$
Hence, the square encloses more area.

(i) the area of the path
(ii) the cost of planting grass in the remaining portion of the garden at the rate of Rs. 40 per ${m}^{2}.$

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

Area of the square garden =$\left(Side{\right)}^{2}$
= 30 m × 30 m =$900{m}^{2}$
Length of the garden excluding the path = 30 m – 2 × 1 m = 28 m
$?$Area of the garden excluding the path = 28 m × 28 m = 784${m}^{2}$
(i) Area of the path =$900{m}^{2}–784{m}^{2}=116{m}^{2}$
(ii) Cost of the planting the remaining portion
at the rate of Rs. 40 per${m}^{2}$ = Rs. 40 × 784 = Rs. 31,360

Q.6 Two cross roads, each of width 10 m, cut at right angles through the centre of a rectangular park of length 700 m and breadth 300 m and parallel to its sides. Find the area of the roads. Also find the area of the park excluding cross roads. Give the answer in hectares.

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

Length of the road parallel to the length of the park = 700 m
Width of the road = 10 m
$?$ Area of the road = l × b = 700 m × 10 m = 7000${m}^{2}$
Length of the road parallel to the breadth of the park = 300 m
Width of the road = 10 m Area of this road = l × b = 300 m × 10 =$3000{m}^{2}$
Area of the both roads = $7000{m}^{2}+3000{m}^{2}$– Area of the common portion
=$10,000{m}^{2}–10m×10m=10,000{m}^{2}–100{m}^{2}$
$=9900{m}^{2}=0.99hactare$
Area of the park = l × b = 700 m × 300 m = $210000{m}^{2}$
Area of the park without the roads
=$210000{m}^{2}–9900{m}^{2}$ =$200100{m}^{2}=20.01hactare$

Q.7 Through a rectangular field of length 90 m and breadth 60 m, two roads are constructed which are parallel to the sides and cut each other at right angles through the centre of the fields. If the width of each road is 3 m, find
(i) the area covered by the roads.
(ii) the cost of constructing the roads at of the rate of Rs. 110 per${m}^{2}.$

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

Length of the road along the length of the field = 90 m Breadth = 3 m
$?Areaofthisroad=l×b=90m×3m={\text{\(}}270{m}^{2}$
Similarly, the area of the road parallel to the breadth of the field = l × b
= 60 m × 3 m =$180{m}^{2}$
Area of the common portion =$3m×3m=9{m}^{2}$
(i) Area of the two roads = $270{m}^{2}+180{m}^{2}–9{m}^{2}$ =$450{m}^{2}–9{m}^{2}=441{m}^{2}$
(ii) Cost of constructing the roads
= Rs. 110 × 441 = Rs. 48,510

Q.8 Pragya wrapped a card around a circular pipe of radius 4 cm and cut off the length required of the cord. Then she wrapped it around a square box of side 4 cm (also shown). Did she have any cord left? ($?$= 3.14)

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

Length of the cord = Circumference of the circular pipe
= 2$?$r = 2 × 3.14 × 4 = 25.12 cm
Perimeter of the square box
= 4 × side = 4 × 4 cm = 16 cm
Length of the cord left
= 25.12 cm – 16 cm = 9.12 cm
Yes, 9.12 cm cord is left.

Q.9 The given figure represents a rectangular lawn with a circular flower bed in the middle. Find:
(i) the area of the whole land.
(ii) the area of the flower bed.
(iii) the area of the lawn excluding the area of the flower bed.
(iv) the circumference of the flower bed.

NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 11 Perimeter And Area

=$10m×5m=50{m}^{2}$
(ii) Area of the circular flower bed = $?{r}^{2}$
=$\frac{22}{7}×2×2=\frac{88}{7}{m}^{2}=12.57{m}^{2}$
= $50{m}^{2}?\frac{88}{7}{m}^{2}=\frac{350?88}{7}{m}^{2}=\frac{262}{7}$ = $37.43{m}^{2}$
(iv) circumference of the flower bed = 2$?r$
