The circumference of a circle is 44 cm. Find its area (use π = 22/7)
Circumference of a circle = 44 cm
2πr = 44
2 ⋅ (22/7) ⋅ r = 44
r = 7
Area of circle = πr2
= (22/7) ⋅ (7)2
= 154 cm2

The volume of a right circular cylinder is 1100 cm3 and the radius of its base is 5 cm. Calculate its curved surface area.
Volume of a right circular cylinder = 1100 cm3
πr2h = 1100 cm3
Here r = 5
(22/7) ⋅ (5)2 ⋅ h = 1100
h = 2/7
Curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh
= 2 ⋅ (22/7) ⋅ 5 ⋅ (2/7)
= 440 cm2
So, the curved surface area of cylinder is 440 cm2

A triangle is given whose sides are of length 21 cm, 20 cm and 29 cm. Check whether these are the sides of a right-angled triangle.
If these are the sides of a right-angled triangle, it must satisfy the Pythagoras theorem.
We have to check whether 212 + 202 = 292
Now, 212 + 202 = 441 + 400 = 841 = 292
Thus, the given triangle is a right-angled triangle.
