MENSURATION

       Mensuration means measurement. It is being done in our life in many situations. For example, Length of cloth we need for stitching, the area of a wall which is being painted, perimeter of a rectangular plot to be fenced, quantity of water needed to fill the tank etc. For these kinds of activities, we are doing measurements for further needs.
Here, we cover three areas
1. Perimeter 2. Area 3. Volume
        To find these things we have to remember the formulae of plane figures and solid figures. Try to understand the concept behind reaching the formula.

 

1. The area of a rectangular plate is 236.25 sq.cm. If the length of the plate is 17.5 cm, find the perimeter of the plate.
