15.In a rectangular- shaped field, a goat is tied with a rope in such a way that it can graze the whole
field. All the corners of the field are at equal distance from the point where the rope has been
tied. The length and breadth of the field are 15 m and 8 m respectively.
a. What is the length of the rope?
b. If the rope is tied to one of the corners and the goat can graze the whole field, then find the
length of the rope?
16. Rohan cycles at a uniform speed and covers a distance of 1245
4
km in 83

hours. Find his speed in
m/s and the distance (in km) covered by him in 5 hours
Dear Student,
Area covered by Goat = r ( here we divide by 4 because rope is tied at the corner of the plot and only 1/4 part , the goat can graze
where r= 7 m = length of rope
so area = (22/7)77/4 = 38.5 sq m
Regards
