Question 16 Mensuration 1 Exercise 20.3

A floral design on the floor of a building consists of 280 tiles. Each tile is in the shape of a parallelogram of altitude 3 cm and base 5 cm. Find the cost of polishing the design at a rate of 50 paise per cm^2.

Answer:

Given altitude of a tile = 3 cm

Base of a tile = 5 cm

Area of one tile = Attitude x Base

= 5 cm x 3 cm

= 15 cm^2

Area of 280 tiles = 280 x 15 cm^2 =

4200 cm^2

Rate of polishing the tile = Rs. 0.5 per cm^2

Thus, Total cost of polishing the design = 4200 x 0.5

= Rs. 2100
