∴ The length of each side of the field = a m = 21 m.

7. In a right triangle ABC, ∠B = 90°.

a. If AB = 6 cm, BC = 8 cm, find AC

b. If AC = 13 cm, BC = 5 cm, find AB

Solution:

a.

Hence, AC = 10 cm.

b.

Hence, AB = 12 cm

8. A gardener has 1000 plants. He wants to plant these in such a way that the number of rows

and the number of columns remain same. Find the minimum number of plants he needs more for this.

Solution:

Let the number of rows and column be, x.

∴ Total number of row and column= x× x = x2 As per question, x2 = 1000

⇒ x = √1000
