Join MQ, MO and RP
NQ = 23 cm,
NA = BQ = $$\frac { 10 }{ 2 }$$ = 5 cm
MR = OP = 13 cm

In right ∆BDQ,
PQ² = BQ² + BP²
⇒ (13)² = (5)² + BP²
⇒ 169 = 25 + BP²
⇒ BP² = 169 – 25 = 144 = (12)²
BP = 12 cm
PR = MO = 2 x 12 = 24 cm
Now area of rectangle RPOM = RP x PO = 24 x 13 = 312 cm²
Area of ∆PRQ = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x PR x BQ
= $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x 24 x 5 = 60 cm²
Similarly area ∆MON = 60 cm²
Area of the hexagon MNOPQR = 312 + 60 + 60 = 432 cm²

Solution:
Length of rectangular plot (l) = 112 m
and breadth (b) = 78 m
Width of path = 2.5 m

Inner length = 112 – 2 x 2.5 = 112 – 5 = 107 m
and inner breadth = 78 – 2 x 2.5 = 78 – 5 = 73 m
Area of path = outer area – inner area
= (112 x 78 – 107 x 73) m² = 8736 – 7811 = 925 m²
Rate of constructing = Rs 4.50 per m²
Total cost = 925 x Rs 4.50 = Rs 4162.50

Question 14.
Find the area of a rhombus, each side of which measures 20 cm and one of whose diagonals is 24 cm.

AB = 20 cm
and OA = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ AC = $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ x 24 cm = 12 cm
In right-angled ∆AOB,
AB² = AO² + BO² (Pythagoras theorem)
⇒ (20)² = (12)² + BO²
⇒ 400 = 144 + BO²
⇒ BO² = 400 – 144 = 256 = (16)²
⇒ BO = 16 cm
and diagonal BD = 2 x BO = 2 x 16 = 32 cm
Now area of rhombus ABCD

Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
In right ∆AOB
AB² = QA² + BO² (Pythagoras theorem)
= (8)² + (1)² = 64 + 1 = 65
AB = √65 m.
Now, length of perpendicular AL (h)

Question 16.
Find the area of the field in the form of a rhombus, if the length of each side be 14 cm and the altitude be 16 cm.
Solution:
Length of each side of rhombus = 14 cm.
Length of altitude = 16 cm
Area = Base x altitude = 14 x 16 cm² = 224 cm²

Question 17.
The cost of fencing a square field at 60 paise per metre is Rs 1,200. Find the cost of reaping the field at the rate of 50 paise per 100 sq. metres.

Solution:
Side of a square plot = 84 m
Area = (a)² = (84)² = 84 x 84 m² = 7056 m²
Area of rectangular field = 7056 m²
Length (l) = 144 m

Question 19.
The area of a rhombus is 84 m². If its perimeter is 40 m, then find its altitude.
Solution:
Area of rhombus = 84 m²
Perimeter = 40 m

Question 20.

Solution:
Side of rhombus garden (b) = 30 m.
Altitude (h) = 16 m
Area = Base x altitude = 30 x 16 = 480 m²
Rate of levelling the garden = Rs 2 per m²
Total cost = Rs 480 x 2 = Rs 960

Question 21.
A field in the form of a rhombus has each side of length 64 m and altitude 16 m. What is the side of a square field which has the same area as that of a rhombus ?
Solution:
Length of side of rhombus (b) = 64 m
and altitude (h) = 16 m
Area = b x h = 64 x 16 m² = 1024 m²
Now area of square = 1024 m²
Side of the square = √Area = √1024 m = 32 m

Question 22.

Solution:
x + y = 4
Squaring on both sides,
(x + y)2 = (4)2
⇒ x2 +y2 + 2xy = 16
⇒ x2+y2 + 2 x 2 = 16                       (∵ xy = 2)
⇒ x2 + y2 + 4 = 16
⇒ x2+y2 = 16 – 4= 12           ‘
∴ x2+y2 = 12

Question 11.
If x-y = 7 and xy = 9, find the value of x2+y2.

Solution:
2x + 3y = 14, 2x – 3y= 2
We know that
(a + b)2 – (a – b)2 = 4ab
∴ (2x + 3y)2 – (2x – 3y)2 = 4 x 2x x 3y = 24xy
⇒ (14)2 – (2)2 = 24xy
⇒ 24xj= 196-4= 192
⇒ xy = $$\frac { 192 }{ 24 }$$ = 8
∴  xy = 8

Solution:
x2 + y2 = 29, xy = 2
(i) (x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2xy
= 29 + 2×2 = 29+ 4 = 33
∴  x + y= ±√33
(ii) (x – y)2 = x2 + y2 – 2xy
= 29- 2×2 = 29- 4 = 25
∴ x-y= ±√25= ±5
(iii) x2 + y2 = 29
Squaring on both sides,
(x2 + y2)2 = (29)2
⇒ (x2)2 + (y2)2 + 2x2y2 = 841
⇒ x4 +y + 2 (xy)2 = 841
⇒ x4 + y + 2 (2)2 = 841          (∵ xy = 2)
⇒ x4 + y + 2×4 = 841
⇒ x4 + y + 8 = 841
⇒ x4 + y = 841 – 8 = 833
∴ x4 +y = 833

Question 18.
What must be added to each of the following expressions to make it a whole square ?’
(i) 4x2 – 12x + 7
(ii) 4x2 – 20x + 20
Solution:
(i) 4x2 – 12x + 7 = (2x)2 – 2x 2x x 3 + 7
In order to complete the square,
we have to add  32 – 7 = 9 – 7 = 2
∴ (2x)2 – 2 x 2x x 3 + (3)2
= (2x-3)2
∴ Number to be added = 2
(ii) 4x2 – 20x + 20
⇒ (2x)2 – 2 x 2x x 5 + 20
In order to complete the square,
we have to add (5)2 – 20 = 25 – 20 = 5
∴ (2x)2 – 2 x 2x x 5 + (5)2
= (2x – 5)2
∴ Number to be added = 5

= 6.25p2 + 2.25q2 – 7.5pq – 2.25p2 – 6.25q2 + 7.5pq
= 6.25p2 – 2.25p2 + 2.25g2 – 6.25q2
= 4.00P2 – 4.00q2
= 4p2 – 4q2 = 4 (p2 – q2)
