  1. There is a rectangular tank of length 180 m and breadth 120 m in a circular field. If the area of the land portion of the field is 40000 m², what is the radius of the field ? (Take π = 22/7 )
    1. 130 m
    2. 135 m
    3. 140 m
    4. 145 m
Correct Option: C

Using Rule 14, Area of the tank = 180 × 120 = 21600 m².
Total area of the circular plot = 40000 + 21600 = 61600 m².
∴ πr² = 61600

⇒ r² =
61600 × 7
22

= 2800 × 7
⇒ r = √2800 × 7
⇒ r = 2 × 7 × 10 = 140m
