b) 45

c) 60

d) 75

e) Can’t be determined

Diagonal = $\sqrt {2}$times the side. So, the area = $\frac {(diagonal) ^ {2}}{2}$= 50 square metres.

The required ratio is 2*$\pi$*r : 4*r = $\pi$:2

Circumference = 2*$\pi$*r = 100 $\pi$. So, r = 50 metres. Area = $\pi$* r * r = 2500 $\pi$

If the perimeter of the rectangle is 84, 2 * (l + b) = 84. So, breadth is 18 metres since length is 24. $diagonal^{2} = length^{2} + breadth^{2}$. So, diagonal = 30. Area of the triangle = ½*base*height = ½* 18*30 = 270

If the breadth is s, length is 2s and area = 2s * s = 50. So, s is 5 and 2s is 10.

Area of square = 28 x 28 = 784 sq.cm
Area of four circles = 4$\pi$r2
= 4 x $\frac{22}{7}$ x 7 x 7 = 616 sq.cm
= 784 – 616 = 168 sq. cm

length of diagonal = $\sqrt{100}$*$\sqrt{2}$ = diameter. Radius = diameter/2. Area = $\pi$*$radius^{2}$

If the breadth is x, length = 3x. Perimeter = 2*(x+3x) = 544. so, breadth = 68 and length = 204. Area = 68*204
