Question 1.
A plot is in the form of a rectangle ABCD having semi-circle on BC as shown in the figure. If AB = 60 m and BC = 28 m, find the area of the plot.

Solution:
Plot is formed of a rectangle ABCD and one semicircle on BC as diameter
∴  AB (l) = 60 m,
BC (b) = 28 m
∴ Radius of semicircle (r) = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ BC
= $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x 28 = 14m
Area of plot = area of rectangle ABCD + area of semicircle

Question 2.

and width (b) = 24.5 =  $$\frac { 49 }{ 2 }$$ m

Question 3.
Find the area of the circle in which a square of area 64 cm2 is inscribed. (Use π = 3.14)
Solution:
Area of square = 64 cm²
∴  Side of square = $$\sqrt { Area }$$  = $$\sqrt { 64 }$$  = 8 cm
∵ The square in inscribed in the circle
∴  Radius of the circle will be = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ diagonal of
the square (r)=$$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x $$\sqrt { 2 }$$a = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x $$\sqrt { 2 }$$ x 8 cm = 4$$\sqrt { 2 }$$
∴ Area of the circle = πr²
= 3.14 x (4$$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x $$\sqrt { 2 }$$ x 8 cm = 4$$\sqrt { 2 }$$)² cm²
= 3.14 x 32 = 100.48 cm²

Question 53.
In a hospital used water is collected in a cylindrical tank of diameter 2 m and height 5 m. After recycling, this water is used to irrigate a park to hospital whose length is 25 m and breadth is 20 m. If tank is filled completely then what will be the height of standing water used for irrigating the park? [CBSE 2017]
Solution:
Diameter of cylinder (d) = 2 m
Radius of cylinder (r) = 1 m
Height of cylinder (H) = 5 m
Volume of cylindrical tank, Vc = = πr²H = π X (1) 2 X 5= 5πm
Length of the park (L) = 25 m
Now water from the tank is used to irrigated the park. So, volume of cylindrical tank = Volume of water in the park.
⇒ 5π = 25 x 20 x h
⇒ 5π/25 x 20 = h
⇒ h = π/100 m
⇒ h = 0.0314 m
Through recycling of water, better use of the natural resource occurs without wastage. It helps in  reducing and preventing pollution.
It thus helps in conserving water. This keeps the greenery alive in urban areas like in parks gardens etc.
