Let original radius be r.
Then, according to the questions,
π (r + 1)2 - πr2 = 22Correct Option: C
Let original radius be r.
Then, according to the questions,
π (r + 1)2 - πr2 = 22
⇒ π x [(r + 1)2 - r2] = 22
⇒ (22/7) x (r + 1 + r ) x (r + 1 - r) = 22
⇒ 2r + 1 = 7
⇒ 2r = 6
∴ r = 6/2 = 3 cm

Increase in circumference of circle = 5%
∴ Increase in radius is also 5%.
Now, increase in area of circle = 2a + (a2/100) %Correct Option: B
Increase in circumference of circle = 5%
∴ Increase in radius is also 5%.
Now, increase in area of circle = 2a + (a2/100) %
Where, a = increase in radius= 2 x 5 + (5 x 5)/100 % = 10.25%
- The breadth of a rectangle is 25 m. The total cost of putting a grass bed on this field was ₹ 12375, at the rate of ₹ 15 per sq m. What is the length of the rectangular field?

Area to the rectangular field = 12375/15 = 825 sq m
According to the question,
(L x B) = 825 [L = length and B = breadth]Correct Option: C
Area to the rectangular field = 12375/15 = 825 sq m
According to the question,
(L x B) = 825 [L = length and B = breadth]
⇒ L x 25 = 825
∴ L = 825/25 = 33 m

l1 = 20 cm, A1 = 200 sq cm
∴ b1 = 200/20 = 10 cm
Now, A2 = 200 x 6/5 = 240 sq cm
b2 = 10 cm
∴ l2 = 240/10 = 24 cm
∴ Perimeter of new rectangle = 2(l2 + b2)Correct Option: D
l1 = 20 cm, A1 = 200 sq cm
∴ b1 = 200/20 = 10 cm
Now, A2 = 200 x 6/5 = 240 sq cm
b2 = 10 cm
∴ l2 = 240/10 = 24 cm
∴ Perimeter of new rectangle = 2(l2 + b2)
= 2(24 + 10) = 2 x 34 = 68 cm
- Find the cost of carpeting a room 8 m long and 6 m broad with a carpet 75 cm wide at ₹ 20 per m.

Area of the carpet = Area of the room
Correct Option: D
Area of the carpet = Area of the room
= 8 x 6 = 48 sq m
Width of the carpet = 75/100 = 3/4 m
Length of the carpet = 48 x (4/3)
= 16 x 4 = 64 m
∴ Cost of carpeting = 64 x 20 = ₹ 1280
