Question 1.
The diameter of round table upper surface in Science lab is 70 cm. Find the area.
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 1
Answer:
Given diameter of table d = 70 cm
Radius of table r = [latex]\frac{\mathrm{d}}{2}[/latex] = [latex]\frac{70}{2}[/latex] = 35 cm
Area of the table = πr2
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 2
∴ Area of the round table = 3,850 sq.cm.

AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3

Question 2.
Radius of the circular shaped wall painting is 14 cm. Calculate the area of wall painting.
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 3
Answer:
Given radius of the wall painting
r = 14 cm
Area of the circle = πr2
= [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × 142
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 4
= 616
∴ Area of the wall painting = 616 sq.cm

Question 3.
If the area of circular shaped dart board is 1386 sq.cm. Find its radius and diameter.
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 5
Answer:
Given the area of circular shaped dart board = 1386 sq.cm
Area of the circle = πr2 = 1386
⇒ [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × r2 = 1386
⇒ 22 × r2 = 1386 × 7
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 6
⇒ r2 = 441 = 212
⇒ r2 = 212
∴ Radius of dart board r = 21 cm
Diameter of dart board d 2r
= 2 × 21
= 42 cm

Question 4.
Circumference of the circular shaped clock is 44 cm. Find the radius and surface area of the clock.
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 7
Answer:
Given the circumference of clock = 44 cm
⇒ 2πr = 44 cm
⇒ 2 × [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × r = 44
⇒ 44 × r = 44 × 7
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 8
∴ Radius of the clock r = 7 cm
Surface area of the clock = πr2
= [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × 72
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 9
∴ Surface area of the clock = 154 sq.cm

Question 5.
The circumference of a circular shaped lawn in a park is 352 m. Find the area of the circular shaped lawn. If cost of grass per sq. m is ₹ 30, then find total cost of laying grass on lawn.
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 10
Answer:
Given the circumference of lawn = 352 m
⇒ 2πr = 352 m
⇒ 2 × [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × r = 352
⇒ 44r = 352 × 7 7
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 11
∴ Radius of the lawn r = 56 m
Area of the lawn = πr2
= [latex]\frac{22}{7}[/latex] × 562
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.3 12
Area of the lawn = 9856 sq.m
Cost of grass per sq.m = ₹ 30
Cost of grass per 9856 sq.m = 9856 × 30
∴ Total cost of laying grass on lawn = ₹ 2,95,680

SCERT AP 7th Class Maths Solutions Pdf Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

AP State Syllabus 7th Class Maths Solutions 11th Lesson Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2

Question 1.
The length and breadth of the tablet are 16 cm, 8 cm respectively. It has a inner side black border of 1 cm width around the screen. Find the area of the black border.
Answer:
Given length of the tablet l = 16 cm
breadth b = 8 cm
Area of the tablet ABCD
= l × b
= 16 × 8
= 128 sq.cm
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 1
Width of border = 1 cm
Border running around the screen.
So, length of screen
l = 16 – 2 × width
= 16 – 2 × 1
= 16 – 2 = 14 cm
Breadth of screen
b = 8 – 2 × 1
= 8 – 2 = 6 cm
Area of the screen
= l × b
= 14 × 6
= 84 sq.cm
Area of the border = Area of the tablet – Area of screen
= 128 – 84
= 44 sq.cm
∴ Area of black border = 44 sq.cm.

Question 2.
Revanth has a rectangular lawn of length 45 m and breadth 20 m in his garden. He wants to do flooring 5 m along out-side the lawn for path. Find out the area of path. Find the cost of flooring at the rate ₹ 100 per sq.m.
Answer:
Given inner length of lawn l = 45 m
breadth b = 20 m
Inner area of lawn = l × b
= 45 × 20
= 900 sq.m
Width of the path = 5 m
Path is outside the lawn.
So, outer length of lawn
L = l + 2 × w
= 45 + 2 × 5
= 45 + 10 = 55 m
Breadth B = b + 2w
= 20 + 2 × 5
= 20 + 10 = 30 m
Outer area of lawn = l × b
= 55 × 30
= 1650 sq.m
Area of the path
= outer area – inner area
= 1650 – 900
= 750 sq.m.
Cost of flooring per sq.m = ₹ 100
∴ Cost of flooring per 750 sq.m
= 750 × 100 = ₹ 75,000/-

Question 3.
The surface of water pool is in the shape of a square whose side is 450 cm. Its exterior 20 cm width and the edge part is cemented along the side of the square. Find the area of that cemented part. Find cost for cementing if the rate is ₹ 15 per sq.cm.
Answer:
Given inner side of the pool (s) = 450 cm
Inner area of waterptool ABCD = s × s
= 450 × 450
= 202500 sq.cm
Width of the edge = 20 cm
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 2
Here path is running outside the pool.
So, outer side of the pool
(s) = s + 2 × w
= 450 + 2 × 20
= 450 + 40 = 490 cm
Outer area of waterpool EFGH
= s × s
= 490 × 490
= 2,40,100 sq.cm
Area of the edge
= Outer area – Inner area
= 240100 – 202500
Area of the path = 37,600 sq.cm
Cost of cementing per sq.cm = ₹ 15
∴ Cost of cementing per 37600 sq.cm
= 37,600 × 15
= ₹ 5,64,000

Question 4.
Two pathways parallel to the length and breadth have been constructed in the centre of the rectangular park whose length is 120 m and breadth is 90 m. If the width of each pathway is 15 m, find out expenditure of flooring on the pathway at the rate ₹ 80 per sq.m,
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 3
Answer:
In the figure ABCD is a rectangular park.
Length of ABCD = 120 m
Breadth of ABCD = 90 m
Width of path = 15 m
Area of EFGH = length × width
= 120 × 15
= 1800 sq.m
Area of MNOP = breadth × width
= 90 × 15
= 1350 sq.m
Area of common path = width × width
= 15 × 15
= 225 sq.m
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 4
Area of IJKL = 225 sq.m is included in both EFGH and MNOP paths. So, we subtract once.
Area of the path = Area of EFGH + Area of MNOP – Area of IJKL .
= 1800 + 1350 – 225
= 2925 sq.m
Cost of flooring per sq.m = ₹ 80
Cost of flooring per 2925 sq.m. = 2925 × 80
∴ Expenditure for path flooring = ₹ 2,34,000.

Question 5.
A photo frame of length 28 cm. and breadth 11 cm. has done decoration of 3 cm. along inside shown in the figure. Find the total area of decoration. If the cost of decoration is ₹ 2 per Sq.cm., find total cost of decoration.
Answer:
Given the length of frame ABCD = 28 cm
Breadth = 11 cm
Area of frame ABCD = l × b
= 28 × 11
= 308 sq.cm
Width of the decoration part = 3 cm
Decoration is tying inside the frame.
So, length of EFGH = l – 2 × width
= 28 – 2 × 3
= 28 – 6 = 22 cm
Breadth = b – 2 × width
= 11 – 2 × 3
= 11 – 6 = 5 cm
AP Board 7th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 11 Area of Plane Figures Ex 11.2 5
Area of frame EFGH = l × b
= 22 × 5
= 110 sq.cm
Area of the decoration part
= Area of ABCD – Area of EFGH
= 308 – 110
= 198 sq.cm
Cost of decoration per sq.cm = ₹ 2
Cost of decoration per 198 sq.cm = 198 × 2
∴ Total cost of decoration = ₹ 396.

  1. Reserved forests.
  2. Protected forests.
  3. Unclassified forests.

1. Reserved forests :
These are the forests where the activities like hunting, grazing etc. are prohibited and the rights of this land are reserved with the government.

2. Protected forests :
They are intended to protect certain species of flora and fauna. Excessive damage is not allowed here.

3. Unclassified forests :
No restrictions on collection of forest products for livelihood and grazing of cattle in these forests.

The British, who ruled India before independence, enacted two laws in 1864 and 1878 to establish the Forest Department and hand over control over the forests. The laws restricted the traditional/customary rights of the tribals and forest users by classifying forests as ‘reserved’ and ‘protected’ forests. Reserved forests where forests in which no one could enter. ‘Protected’ forests could be used by people; they could take head-loads of wood and,small forest produce for their own use and could graze their cattle.

But, here too, there were many restrictions over cutting trees, grazing more than the limit set by the Forest Department etc. The national forest policy 1988 declared that the primary task should be to associate the tribal people in the protection, regeneration and development of forests.

Now the Govt, of Andhra Pradesh has started Eco-tourism, initiative taking tip for the creation of new community-based Eco system centres and strengthening the existing eco-tourism centres by involving local tribes in Andhra Pradesh.
