In our village Asadpur, the school building will be repaired. This year the ex-students have decided to take over this duty. There are two rooms of different shapes in this school building. Tathagatha and I calculated the expenditure of repairing the room of class-l.

Question 1. After taking measurements of the room of class-l, it has been found that its length, breadth and height are 5 m, 4 m and 3 m respectively. Let us calculate how much money will be required to cement the floor at the rate of Rs. 55 per square metre.

Solution:

Given

After taking measurements of the room of class-l, it has been found that its length, breadth and height are 5 m, 4 m and 3 m respectively.

The area of the floor of that room (5 x 4) square metres = 20 square metres.

∴ The total cost for cementing the floor of that room will be

Rs. (20 x 55)

= Rs 1100

Rs 1100 will be required to cement the floor at the rate of Rs. 55 per square metre

Question 2. There is a door of dimension of 2 m x 1.4 m and there are 2 windows of the dimension of 1.3 m x 1.2 m in that room. Let’s find out how much it will cost to colour the 2 windows and 1 door at Rs. 42/ sq.m.

Solution:

Given

There is a door of dimension of 2 m x 1.4 m and there are 2 windows of the dimension of 1.3 m x 1.2 m in that room.

The area of the door = 2 m. x 1.4 m = 2.8 sq.m.

The area of a window the room = 1.3 m x 1.2m = 1.56

∴ The area of two windows = 2  1.56 sq.m = 3.12 sq.m.

∴ The total area of 1 door and 2 windows is = (2.8 + 3.12) sq.m.. = 5.92 sq.m.

Question 3. Now let’s calculate the total expenditure if I whitewash four walls and the roof of this room at Rs. 6 sq.m.

Solution:

Including the door and windows, the area of 4 walls and roof is

= 2 x length x height + 2 x breadth x height + length x breadth

= (2x5x3 + 2x4x3 + 5 x 4) sq.m.

= (30 + 24 + 20) sq.m..

= 74 sq.m.

∴ The total area of 4 walls and roof without door and windows is

=  74  sq.m. 5.92 sq.m.

= 68.08 sq.m.

Total expenditure = Rs. 1653.12

Question 4. There is a rectangular shaped playground at the back of our school. The length of this playground is 40 meter and the breadth is 20 meter. A road having 3 meter width is there all around inside the playground. Let’s work out how much money will be required to construct the road at Rs. 95/sq.m.

Solution:

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Rectangular Playground

Given

There is a rectangular shaped playground at the back of our school. The length of this playground is 40 meter and the breadth is 20 meter. A road having 3 meter width is there all around inside the playground.

The area of the rectangular playground including the road is (40 x 20) sq.m. =  800 sq.m.

The length of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 40 metre -2 x 3 metre = (40 – 6) metre

= 34 metre

The breadth of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 20 metre -2 × 3 metre = (20 – 6) metre

= 14 meter

∴ The area of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 34 sq.m, x 14 sq.m.

= 476 sq.m.

∴ The area of the road is = 800 sq.m.-476 sq.m. = 324 sq.m.

∴ Total amount required to construct this road at rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m, is

= Rs.  324 × 95 = Rs. 30780

Rs. 30780 will be required to construct the road at Rs. 95/sq.m.

“Class 8 WBBSE Maths Chapter 1 solutions, Algebraic Expression study material”

Question 5. If there is road all around outside the ground of width 3 meter, then let us work out the expenditure of constructing the road at the same rate above (let’s do).

Solution:

Given

If there is road all around outside the ground of width 3 meter,

The area of the playground = 40 x 20 sq.m. = 800 sq.m.

Length of the playground including the road = (40 + 2 x 3) m.

= (40 + 6) m. = 46 m.

Breadth of the playground including the road = (20 + 2 x 3 ) m.

= (20 + 6) m. = 26 m.

Area of the playground including the road = 46 x 26 sq.m. = 1196 sq.m.

Area of the road =(1196 – 800) sq.m. = 396 sq.m..

The cost of constructing this road at the rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m.

= Rs. 396 x 95 = Rs. 37,620

The cost of constructing this road at the rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m. = Rs. 37,620

Tirthanker draws:

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Tirthanker Draws

Area of the paper with black road = 12 x 8 sq. cm.

= 96 sq. cm.

Area of the paper without the black road = 32 sq. cm.

∴ Area of the black road = 64 sq. cm.

We stick the two black roads in the middle of the green paper and so we get four green rectangular regions with same area.

Titli draws:

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Titli Draws

∴ Length of a green rectangular region = \(\frac{28-4}{2}\) cm. = 12  cm.

Breadth of a green rectangular region = \(\frac{18-4}{2}\)cm. = [7] cm

∴ Area of a green rectangular region = 12 × 7 sq. cm

=84 sq. cm

Area of 4 green rectangular regions with black road = 4 × 84 sq. cm

= 336 sq. cm

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 1, Algebraic Expression solved examples”

= Area of big rectangular region with black road 28  x 18 sq. cm

It is seen that the black coloured road divides the square region into four equal squares.

Question 8. Let’s see the pictures drawn by David, Farukh and Mitali and then let’s find the area of the black coloured roads and note it down.

Solution:

Area of the black coloured road drawn by David :

Area of the rectangular area= (13 + 5) × (16 + 5) sq. cm.

= 18 x 21 sq. cm. = 378 sq. cm.

Area of the land = 2 (13 x 8). sq. cm.

= 2 x 104 sq. cm.

= 208 sq. cm

Area of the road = (378 – 208) sq. cm = 170

Area of the black coloured road draw by Farukh :

Area of the region including the road 20 × 20 sq. cm. = 400 sq. cm.

Area of the region excluding the road = (20-12) × (20 – 12) sq. cm.

= 8 x 8 = 64 sq. cm.

Area of the road = (400 – 64) sq. cm. = 336 sq. cm.

Area of the black coloured road draw by Mitali

Area of the region including the road = 24 x 24 sq. cm. = 576 sq. cm.

Area of a pink sub-division = \(\left(\frac{24-4}{2}\right) \times\left(\frac{24-4}{2}\right)\) sq. cm.

= 10 x 10 sq. cm.

= 100 sq.cm.

Area of 4 pink regions = 4 x 100 sq. cm.

= 400 sq. cm.

∴ Area of the road = (576 – 400) sq. cm.

= 176 sq. cm.

Question 2. The length and breadth of the rectangular courtyard of the house of Amina are 6 m. and 4.2 m. respectively. We put a mattress of measure 3.5 m x 2.5 m in the middle of the courtyard. Let’s find the area of the courtyard except the mattress and note it down.

Solution:

Given

The length and breadth of the rectangular courtyard of the house of Amina are 6 m. and 4.2 m. respectively. We put a mattress of measure 3.5 m x 2.5 m in the middle of the courtyard.

Area of the courtyard = 6 × 4.2 sq. m. = 25.2 sq.m.

Area of the matress = 3.5 m. × 2.5 m. = 8.75 sq.m.

Area of the courtyard without the mattress = (25.2 – 8.75) sq.m. = 16.45 sq. m.

The area of the courtyard except the mattress = 16.45 sq. m.

Question 3. There is a path of 3 m width all around outside the square-shaped park of Ajanta Housing Complex. The perimeter of the park including the path is 484 m. Let’s calculate the area of the parth.

Solution:

Given

There is a path of 3 m width all around outside the square-shaped park of Ajanta Housing Complex. The perimeter of the park including the path is 484 m.

Perimeter of the square shaped park including the road = 484 m.

Length of one side of the square shaped park including the road = 484 ÷ 4 m. = 121 m.

Area of the park including the road = (121 )2 sq.m = 14641 sq.m.

= (121-6) m. = 115 m.

Area of the park including the road = (115)2 sq.m = 13225 sq.m.

∴ Area of the road = (14641 – 13225) sq.m = 1416 sq.m.

The area of the parth= 1416 sq.m.

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression The Length And Breadth Of Rectangle.

Breadth of the garden without the road = (30 – 4) m. = 26 m.

Area of the garden without the road = 50 × 26 sq.m= 1300 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1300)sq.m = 200 sq.m

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Breadth Of The Garden

Breadth of the garden without the road = (50 – 4) m. = 46 m.

Area of the garden without the road = 46 x 30 sq.m = 1380 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1380) sq.m = 120 sq.m

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Parallel To The Length And Breadth

Area of the garden including the road = 50 x 30 sq.m = 1500 sq.m

Length of each part of the garden =  \(\frac{50-4}{2}\)m. = 23 m.

Breadth of each part of the garden = \(\frac{30-4}{2}\)m. = 13 m.

Area of each part of the garden = 23 x 13 sq.m – 299 m.

Area of all 4 parts of the garden without the road = 4 x 299 sq.m = 1196 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1196) sq.m = 304 sq.m

Uma Samir, Sudir and I have decided that we will make some square and rectangular cards and will write length and breadth. We will pick up cards one by one and will write area or length or breadth of the cards.

Let’s see the length and breadth of my card which I picked up.

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression length And Breadth Of My Card

Area of the card = (2x + 4)m x(x – 5)m

= (2x + 4)(x – 5) sq.m.

= (2x2+ 4x – 10x – 20)sq.m = (2x2– 6x – 20) sq.m

Let’s see the length and breadth of Lima’s card-

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Length And Breadth Of Umas Card

Area of Uma’s card =5x – 7m × \(\frac{x}{5}+2\) m

= \(x^2+10 x-\frac{7 x}{5} 14\) sq.m

However, area of Samir’s card is (7a2b – 35ab2 + 14abc) sq.m and breadth is 7ab m.

∴ Length of Samir’s card

= (7a2b – 35ab2 + 14abc) sq. m. ÷ 7ab m.

= \(\left(\frac{{ }^a 7 a^2 b}{7 a b}-\frac{{ }^{5 b} 35 a b^2}{7 a b}+\frac{{ }^{2 c} 14 a b c}{7 a b}\right) m .\)

= (a – 5b + 2c) m.

Area of Subir’s card is (6x4y4 — 12x2y2 + 30x2y4) sq. m. and length is 6x2y2 metre.

Breadth of the card = 6x4y4 – 12x2y2 + 30x2y4 sq. m. ÷ 6x2y2m.

= \(\frac{6 x^4 y^2-12 x^2 y^2+30 x^2 y^4}{6 x^2 y^2}\)

= \(\frac{6 x^4 y^2}{6 x^2 y^2}-\frac{12 x^2 y^2}{6 x^2 y^2}+\frac{30 x^2 y^4}{6 x^2 y^2}\)

= (x2 – 2 + 5y2) m.

“Class 8 WBBSE Maths Chapter 1, Algebraic Expression easy explanation”

Let’s find the length of the card where the area of the card is (9p2-4q2) sq.m and breadth of the card is (3p-2q) m.

Solution : Length = Area ÷ Breadth = \(\frac{9 p^2-4 q^2}{3 p-2 q}\)

Let’s express 9p2 – 4q2 into product of two expressions, i.e., factorise it. ,

9p2 – 4q2 = (3p)2 – (2q)2

= (3p + 2q)(3q – 2q)

∴ Length = \(\frac{9 p^2-4 q^2}{3 p-2 q}\) metre

= \(\frac{(3 p+2 q)(3 p-2 q)}{(3 p-2 q)}\)

= (3p + 2q) metre

Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 12y + 6 cm.

Question 3. Let’s write the area of the rectangular region whose length is (8x + 3y) cm and breadth is (8x – 3y) cm.

Solution:

Area of the rectangular region = (8x + 3y)cm × (8x – 3y) cm.

= (8x + 3y) (8x – 3y) sq. cm.

= (8x)2 – (3y)2 sq. cm.

= (64x2 – 9y2) sq.cm.

Area of the rectangular region = (64x2 – 9y2) sq.cm.

Question 4. Let’s write the area of the square region in terms of m where length is (3m – 4) metre. Let’s calculate the value of m when the perimeter of the square is 8 metre.

Solution:

Area of the square = (3m – 4) m. × (3m – 4) m.

= (3m – 4)2 sq. m.

= (3m)2 – 2.3m.4 + (4)2 sq m.

= (9m2– 12m + 16) sq. m.

The perimeter of the square =4 x (3m – 4) m.

= 12m – 16 metre.

According to the problem,

12m -16 = 8

or, 12m = 8+16

or, 12m = 24

or, m= \(\frac{24}{2}\) = 2

If m is 2, perimeter will be 8 m

The value of m is 2 when the perimeter of the square is 8 metre

Algebraic Expression Geometric figures

Today we will play a game. We friends collect two blackboards. One of our friends will write several conditions and others will try to draw different geometrical figures according to the given conditions.

Seouli wrote, let’s draw a quadrilateral where length of four sides are 5 cm, 8 cm, 5 cm, and 8 cm respectively, i.e., opposite sides are equal in length.

Let’s see what kind of quadrilaterals are possible using two sticks of length 5 cm and two sticks of length 8 cm.’

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Different Geometrical Figures

Using sticks we see on fixed quadrilateral is possible. So to draw fixed quadrilateral another one condition is required. Now Seouli wrote, let’s draw a fixed quadrilateral whose opposite sides are equal in length and measurement of one angle is 90°. Hence we draw a Rectangle (rectangle square) figure where length is 8 cm and breadth is 5 cm.

Question 11. On another blackboard, Anita drew a rectangle ABCD of which the length is 8 cm and the breadth is 5 cm.
Solution :

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Anita Drew A Rectangle ABCD

each angle of the rectangle ABCD 90° and sum of 4 angles is  360° Measuring by scale, we see

AC = \(\sqrt{89}\)cm and BD = \(\sqrt{89}\)cm, so AC = BD [put=/≠] and AO = OC [put=/≠] BO = QD [put=/≠]. Let’s measure with a protractor, ∠AOD = 90° [put=/≠]

∴ Both the diagonals of rectangular figure ABCD bisect each other but not at right angle.

Question 12. Seoli wrote, I draw a quadrilateral PQRS, of which PQ=5cm QR=8 cm RS=5 cm, PS = 8 cm and ∠PQR = 45°; So PQRS is a parallelogram (parallelogram / rectangular region).

Solution :

Tuhin drew a parallelogram PQRS on another blackboard where PQ = 5 cm, QR = 8 cm, RS = 5 cm, PS = 8 cm, and ZPQR = 45° ∠PQR = 45°, ∠QRS =135°, ∠RSP = 45°, ∠SPQ = 135°

∴ The sum of measurement of 4 angles = 360°. Now measuring by scale we

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Drew A Parallelogram PQRS

PR =3.5 cm QS =5.5cm PO = OR [put=/≠] QO = OS [put=/≠]

∴ So both the diagonals bisect each other [ I also draw the diagram in exercise book and verify it measuring by myself].

Question 13. Now Tithi drew a square region of which each side is 4 cm.

Solution :

Each side of square LAND [4] cm measure of each angle 90 and LN and AD diagonals are equal [equal/unequal] LO = I ON [put =/≠ Put], AO = OD [ put=/≠] Measuring with the help of protractor we see ∠LOD = 90°

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Drew A Square Region

Both the diagonals of a square region bisect each other.

Question 14. Asif Iqbar drew a Rhombus LION of length of each side 5 cm and ∠LIO = 60°. Let’s measure with protractor.

Solution :

WBBSE Solutions For Class 8 Chapter 1 Algebraic Expression Drew A Rhombus

∠LIO = 60°, ∠ON = 120°, ∠ONL = 60°, ∠NLI = 120°, and ∠LXN = 90° The sum of measurement of four angles of the rhombus = 360°

Let’s see by measuring with scale, LX = XO [=/≠] and IX = XN [=/≠].

∴ Both the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other perpendicularly. Let’s see what I found –

  1. Length of opposite sides are equal
  2. Measurements of opposite angles are equal
  3. Generally length of diagonals are: unequal

  2. Generally, measurement of all angles are l 90° I
  3. Length of diagonals are equal
  4. Diagonals bisect each other

(Square):

  1. Length of all sides are equal
  2. Measurement of each angle is 90°
  3. Length of diagonals are equal
  4. Diagonals bisect each other

Parallelogram whose one angle is a right angle and one pair of adjacent sides are equal in length.

  1. With two 45° – 90° sets square, I shall find square [rectangle/ square]
  2. With two 30° – 60° – 90° sets square, I shall find [ [rectangle/ square]
  3. With two measurement set square, I shall find parallelogram.
