 Exercise 14A

Question 1

Calculate the perimeter of each shape

(a) (4×8)cm= 32 cm


(b) (1+2+3+2+3+1+2+2)cm=16 cm


(c) (15+20+20) cm =55 cm


(d) 2(15+25) cm

=(2×40)=80 cm


(e) (5×14) cm

=70 cm


(f) (11+8+5+3+7) cm

=34 cm


(g) 3rd side $=\sqrt{(8)^2+(6)^2}$

=√64+36

=√100

=10


Perimeter=(6+8+10) cm

=24 cm


(h) (20+8+5+15+5+8+20+8+5+15+5+8) cm

=122 cm


Question 2

Find the perimeter of a square with side length

(a) (4×16) cm

=64 cm

(b) (4×3.12) cm

=12.48 cm

(c) (4×4.5) m

=18 cm

(d) (4×17) mm

=68 mm

Question 3

Find the perimeter of each rectangle given in the table below

(a) 2(8+5) cm

=2×13=26 cm

(b) 2(26+15) mm

=2×41=82 mm

(c) 2(8.3+4.9)cm

=2×13.2=26.4 cm

(d) 2(28.9+19.5) km

=2×48.4=96.8 km

Question 4

What is the cost of following 

(a) A rectangular field 80 m by 45 m, if fencing cost 85.40 per metre ?

Perimeter of field=2(80+45)m

=2×125=250 m


∴Fencing cost=(250×25.40)=21.350


(b) A square field with sides 57.5 m , when fencing costs 76.25 per metre

Perimeter of square field=(4×57.5)m

=230 m

∴Cost of fencing=(230×76.25)

=17537.50


(c) A triangular garden with sides 20.4 m, 63.8 m and 48.7 m, when fencing costs 39.80 per meter?

Perimeter of triangular garden=(20.4+63.8+48.7) m

=132.9 m

∴Cost of fencing=(132.9×39.80)

=5289.42


Question 5

(a) The perimeter of a square is 80 m. What is the length of each side of the sqaure?

∴Length of each side$=\frac{80}{4}$m

=20 m


(b) The perimeter of a rectangular card is 400 mm and its length is 6cm. What is its breadth ?

Let, the breadth be x

400 mm=40 cm

∴2(x+6)=40

$x+6=\frac{40}{2}$

x+6=20

x=20-6=14

Ans : 14


Question 6

This rectangular block of land is to be enclosed with fencing panels 2.6m long. How many panels will be needed if one panel is left out to put in a gate ?

Figure to be added

Perimeter of the rectangular block=2(39+208)=119.6 m


∴Number of panels$=\frac{119.6}{2.6}$

=46


∴One pannel is left out then total number of pannels

=46-1=45


Question 7

A 1.8 m wide path s built around a rectangular pool 20 m long and 8.7 m wide . What is the distance around the outside of 

Figure to be added

(a) The pool

(b) The path

Sol :

(a) Perimeter of the pool=2(87+20) =574 m

Ans : The distance around  the outside of pool is 57.4 m


(b) Length of the path=(20+1.8+1.8) =23.6 m

Breadth of the path=(8.7+1.8+1.8)=12.3 m

∴Perimeter of the path=2(23.6+12.3)=71.8 m
