solving we get d = 15.

Ques:- A circle and a rectangle have the same perimeter. The sidesof the rectangle are 18 cm and 26 cm. What will be the areaof the circle?

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:03:54:

perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)
given l abd b as 18 cm and 26 cm
therefore perimeter of rectangle = 2(44)
perimeter of circle = 2*pi*r
given 2*pi*r=2(l+B)
i.e, 2*(22/7)*r= 2(44)
(22/7)*r=44
r=14 cms
area of the circle = pi*r*r
=(22/7)*14*14
=616 sqcm is the answer

Ques:- There is a 50m long army platoon marching ahead. The last person in the platoon wants to give a letter to the first person leading the platoon. So while the platoon is marching he runs ahead, reaches the first person and hands over the letter to him and without stopping he runs and comes back to his original position. In the mean time the whole platoon has moved ahead by 50m. The question is how much distance did the last person cover in that time. Assuming that he ran the whole distance with uniform speed.

Recent Answer : Added by Admin On 2020-05-17 12:00:37:

The last person covered 120.71 meters.
It is given that the platoon and the last person moved with
uniform speed. Also, they both moved for the identical
amount of time. Hence, the ratio of the distance they
covered – while person moving forward and backword – are
equal.
Let’s assume that when the last person reached the first
person, the platoon moved X meters forward.
Thus, while moving forward the last person moved (50+X)
meters whereas the platoon moved X meters.
Similarly, while moving back the last person moved [50-(50-
X)] X meters whereas the platoon moved (50-X) meters.
Now, as the ratios are equal,
(50+X)/X = X/(50-X)
(50+X)*(50-X) = X*X
Solving, X=35.355 meters
Thus, total distance covered by the last person
= (50+X) + X
= 2*X + 50
= 2*(35.355) + 50
= 120.71 meters
Note that at first glance, one might think that the total
distance covered by the last person is 100 meters, as he
ran the total lenght of the platoon (50 meters) twice.
TRUE, but that’s the relative distance covered by the last
person i.e. assuming that the platoon is stationary.
