      Question

      On a rectangular wall of length 28 metres and height 23

      metres, there is a window in the shape of triangle surmounted on a square. If the base of triangle and square overlap and length of each side of the square is 8 metres and length of altitude of the triangle is 5 metres, then excluding the window, what is the surface area of the wall?
      A 616 sq.m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 942 sq.m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 702 sq.m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 560 sq.m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Surface area of the entire wall = length Γ— height = 28 Γ— 23 = 644 m2 Surface area of the window = sum of surface area of the square part + surface area of the triangular part => 82Β + (1/2) Γ— 8 Γ— 5 => 64 + 20 = 84 m2 Required surface area = 644 – 84 = 560 m2
