Step 1
a+b+c
Consider a triangle QRS with sides a, b and c. Let S =
2
Area of triangle QRS = A1

Step 2
Increasing the side of each side by Z times, we get a new triangle XYZ
XYZ has sides Za, Zb and Zc
By Heron's formula
Area of new triangle =
Za + Zb + Zc a+b+c
Where S1 = =Zx = MS

Area of XYZ = =

This means the area increases by

(2) 48√3 cm 2

Step 1
Following figure shows the required triangle,

Let's assume the sides of the equilateral triangle ΔABC be x.

The area of the triangle ΔABC can be calculated using Heron's formula, since all sides of the
triangles are known.
S = (AB + BC + CA)/2
= (x + x + x)/2
= 3x/2 cm.
The area of the ΔABC = √[S(S - AB)(S - BC)(S - CA) ]

If we look at the question carefully, we notice that the 9 consecutive integers starting from 15 = 15
, 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23
Sum of 9 consecutive integers = 15 + 16 + 17 + 18 + 19 + 20 + 21 + 22 + 23

Therefore, the numbers are , 1, 1, 1 …… (where n is the total number of numbers

Out of n numbers one is and remaining n-1 numbers are 1.

Therefore, the sum of n-1 numbers is n-1.

(7) Area : 66 cm 2
Altitude : 12 cm

Step 1

The area of the triangle can be calculated using Heron's formula, since all sides of the triangle are
known.
S = (11 + 13 + 20)/2 = 22 cm.
The area of the triangle = √[ 22(22 - 11) (22 - 13) (22 - 20) ] = 66 cm2

Step 2
Let's assume, 'h' is the altitude to the base of the triangle,

The altitude to the base of the triangle =

(8) 15π cm 2

Step 1
Following figure shows the square inscribed into a semi-circle,

Let's assume, a is the length of the side of the square.

Therefore, AB = BC = CD = DA = a,
The area of the square = a 2

Step 2

According to the question, the area of the square is 24 cm 2.

Therefore, a 2 = 24 -----(1)

Step 3
If we look at the figure carefully, we notice the OC is the radius of the semi-circle and 'O' is the
center of the semi-circle.
Therefore, OA = OB = a/2

Step 4
In right angled triangle OBC,
OC2 = OB2 + BC2 [By the Pythagorean theorem]
= (a/2)2 + a2
= (a 2/4 + a 2)
= 5a 2/4
= (5 × 24)/4 [From equation (1)]
= 30 cm2

Step 5

Now, the area of the semi-circle = π(OC) 2/2

= (π × 30)/2
= 15π

Step 6

Hence, the area of the semi-circle is 15π cm 2.

Step 1
After 5 hours of burning, both candles have the same length remaining. Let this length be r.

Step 2
The shorter candle can burn fully in a total of 11 hours but has already been lit for 5 hours. Thus its
remaining length r will burn in another 11 - 5 = 6 hours.
Similarly, for the longer candle, the remaining length r will burn in another 7 - 5 = 2 hours.

Step 3
For shorter candle:

Length that burns in 6 hours = r units

r
Length that burns in 11 hours = × 11 units

Thus, the original length of the candle = units

Let us first find all divisors of 6, excluding 6 itself.

Step 2
We know that the divisors of 6 are: 1, 2, and 3.

Step 3
The sum of its divisors, {6} = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.

Step 4
Since {6} = 6:

Sum of the age of the employees = 50 + 25 + 49 + 29 + 49 + 46 + 43 + 39 + 55 + 55

Total number of employees = 10

Step 2
Sum of the age of the employees
Average age of the employees =
