Area = r*s =$\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$
s = (3+4+5)/2 = 6
6*r = $\sqrt{6(6-3)(6-4)(6-5)}$
6*r = 6
r = 1

Area of trapezium = 0.5(Sum of parallel sides)(Height)
= 0.5(7+8)(18) = 15*9 = 135 $cm^2$

Let the length and the breadth be l and b respectively.
$\sqrt{l^2+b^2} = \sqrt{41}$
$l^2+b^2 = 41$
lb = 20
2lb = 40
$l^2+b^2+2lb = 41+40$
$(l+b)^2 = 81$
l+b = 9
2(l+b) = 18 cm

Let the ant start from point A. It has to reach point E. The ant will travel the least distance when it travels along AG – GE, Here, AE forms the diagonal of the rectangle AFED if the cube is cut along AD and the surface ABCD is lifted to make it level with BFEC. In this case, AF = 20 cm and FE = 10 cm. So, the length of the diagonal is $\sqrt{10^2 + 20^2}$ = $10\sqrt5\ cm$

One side of the rectangle is 8 cm and the area is 40 $cm^2$. So, the other side is 5 cm. So, the largest square that can be cut out of the rectangle is a square with side 5 cm.
So, the diameter of the circle inscribed in that square is 5 cm
Area of the circle = $\pi * r^2 = \pi * 2.5^2 = 6.25\pi\ cm^2$

$r^2+h^2 = l^2$
$9^2+h^2 = 15^2$
h = 12
Volume = (1/3)*(22/7)*9*9*12 =$1019cm^2$

Let the side of the square be x.
Diameter of the circle = x
(22/7)*x/2*x/2 = 154
$x^2$ = 7*7*4
x = 14
Area of the square = 14*14 = 196 square units.

Given,diagonal of rectangle = $\sqrt{l^2 + b^2} = 4\sqrt5 = \sqrt{80}$
also given, lb = 32
$(l + b)^2 = l^2 + b^2 + 2lb = 80 + 2\times32 = 144$
=> l + b = 12
thus, perimeter = 2(l + b) = 24 cm

Perimeter of square = 4a
4a = 8+10+6 = 24
a = 6
Area of square =$a^2$ = 6*6 = 36

Length of the open box = (24 – 2×6 ) = 12 cm
Breadth of the open box = (16 – 12) = 4 cm
Height of the open box = 6 cm
Thus, volume of the open box = 12 x 4 x 6 = 288 cm$^3$

area of 4 walls = 2(lh) + 2(bh)
area of floor + ceiling = 2lb = 2x12x8 = 192m
Given, 2lh + 2bh = 192 + 48
12h + 8h = 120
thus, h = 6m
∴: the volume of the room = lxbxh = 12x8x6 = 576m$^2$

Area of the rhombus =$\frac{1}{2}*12*14 = 84$

Volume of cylindrical tank = $\pi r^2 h$ = $\frac{22}{7}* 7/2 * 7/2 * 10$ =385 $m^3$.
Hence, time taken =385/2 minutes = 192.5 minutes = 3 hours 12.5 mins

Area =$\frac{1}{2}(13+7)(5) = 50$
