5. (1) Area of a circle with radius =π× = , which is irrational.
π π2 π

(3) C = 2 πr = 2 π × 1/ π = 2 which is rational. Ans.(3)
6. We know that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles.

D C

A B
∴ In right angled ∆ OAB, we have OA = 4 m, AB = 5 m and ∠ AOB = 90°.

∴ OB = AB2 − OA2 = 52 − 42 = 9 = 3m. ∴ BD = 2 × OB = 6 m.


Ans.(2)

7. Area of the rhombus =


FG 1 × 64 × 48IJ cm 2 = 1536 cm2 . Let OA = 32 cm and OB = 24 cm.
H2 K
∴ AB = OA2 + OB2 = c32h + c24h
2 2
= 1600 = 40 cm.

FG 1536IJ cm = 38.4 cm. Ans.(3)


So, Base × Height = 1536 ⇒ Height =
H 40 K
8. Area of the ring = [ π(r + h) 2 – πr 2 ] = π(2 r + h) h sq units. Ans.(1)
