Think & Reflect — Solution 1
A clear step-by-step explanation based on Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area.
Question:
In my school, the playground is too small to have a 400 m track, so the school constructed a 200 m track instead. Does this mean that we need a smaller stagger for the race tracks in my school (i.e., smaller than the stagger used in the Olympics), for the same 4 × 100 m relay race?
In my school, the playground is too small to have a 400 m track, so the school constructed a 200 m track instead. Does this mean that we need a smaller stagger for the race tracks in my school (i.e., smaller than the stagger used in the Olympics), for the same 4 × 100 m relay race?
✍️ Solution
The stagger is needed because runners in the outer lanes travel a greater distance on the curved portions of the track.
The extra distance depends on the difference in the radii of adjacent lanes, which is determined by the width of the lanes.
Stagger = Difference in the curved distances
= 2π × Difference in radii
= 2π × Difference in radii
Therefore, simply making the track 200 m instead of 400 m does not mean that the stagger must be smaller.
If the school uses the same lane width, the difference in radii of adjacent lanes remains the same. Hence, the required stagger will also remain the same.
Final Answer
No. A 200 m track does not necessarily require a smaller stagger.
The stagger depends on the lane width (difference in radii), not simply on the total length of the track.
The stagger depends on the lane width (difference in radii), not simply on the total length of the track.

Think & Reflect — Solution 2
A clear step-by-step explanation based on Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area.
Question:
What is the connection between this question and the one about the 400 m athletics track?
What is the connection between this question and the one about the 400 m athletics track?
✍️ Solution
The 400 m athletics track and the circle both involve finding the total distance around a shape.
For the 400 m athletics track, the total distance is found by adding the lengths of the two straight sections and the two semicircular sections.
Perimeter of track
= Length of all parts around the track
= Length of all parts around the track
Similarly, the perimeter of a circle is the total distance around the circle, which is called its circumference.
Circumference of a circle = 2πr
Thus, both questions are connected by the idea of finding the perimeter, or total distance around a shape. The curved parts of the athletics track are related to the circumference of a circle.
Final Answer
Both questions are connected by the concept of
perimeter—finding the total distance around a shape.
The curved parts of the 400 m track are related to the
circumference of a circle.

Think & Reflect — Solution 3
A clear step-by-step explanation based on Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area.
Question:
What is the difference in radius between the first and second lanes? Use Fig. 6.11 to find the stagger needed by the runner in the second lane. Will an equal stagger be needed between the third and second lanes?
What is the difference in radius between the first and second lanes? Use Fig. 6.11 to find the stagger needed by the runner in the second lane. Will an equal stagger be needed between the third and second lanes?
✍️ Solution
From Fig. 6.11, the width of each lane is 1.22 m. Therefore, the difference in radius between the first and second lanes is
Difference in radius = 1.22 m
The curved portions of the track consist of two semicircles. Together, these two semicircles form one complete circle.
Hence, the extra distance travelled by the runner in the second lane on the curved portions is
Stagger = 2 × π × 1.22
= 2 × 3.1416 × 1.22
≈ 7.66 m
= 2 × 3.1416 × 1.22
≈ 7.66 m
Thus, the runner in the second lane needs to start approximately 7.66 m ahead of the runner in the first lane.
The width of every lane is the same, 1.22 m. Therefore, the difference in radius between the second and third lanes is also 1.22 m.
Therefore,
the stagger between the third and second lanes will also be approximately 7.66 m.
the stagger between the third and second lanes will also be approximately 7.66 m.
Final Answer
Difference in radius = 1.22 m
Stagger = 7.66 m (approximately)
Equal stagger is needed between the third and second lanes.
Stagger = 7.66 m (approximately)
Equal stagger is needed between the third and second lanes.

Chapter 6 • Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area
Question:
What happens if the parallelogram is ‘thin’ (Fig. 6.18) and the foot of perpendicular from C to AD does not lie on side AD? The construction then does not seem to work. How do we fix this ‘gap’?
What happens if the parallelogram is ‘thin’ (Fig. 6.18) and the foot of perpendicular from C to AD does not lie on side AD? The construction then does not seem to work. How do we fix this ‘gap’?
Given
ABCD is a thin parallelogram.
The perpendicular from C to the line AD falls outside the side AD.
To Find:
A construction that removes the gap and helps us transform the parallelogram into a rectangle.
Fig. 6.18 – A thin parallelogram in which the perpendicular
falls outside AD
Construction
1. Choose a point D′ on DA, close to D.
2. Extend DA beyond A and mark a point A′ such that
AA′ = D′D
3. Join A′B′, where B′ coincides with B.
4. Join CD′.
5. The new quadrilateral A′B′CD′ is the required parallelogram.
✍️ Proof
Fig. 6.19 – The thin parallelogram is rearranged by transferring
the equal triangular gap
Let D′ be a point on DA close to D.
Extend DA beyond A and choose A′ such that
AA′ = D′D
Since ABCD is a parallelogram,
AB ∥ CD
and
AB = CD
Also, A′A and D′D lie on the same straight line.
Therefore,
AA′ ∥ DD′
and
AA′ = DD′
Hence, quadrilateral A′B′CD′ is a parallelogram.
Now consider triangles △CDD′ and △BAA′.
We have:
CD = BA
because opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.
Also,
DD′ = AA′
by construction.
Further, the included angles are equal because
CD ∥ BA
and
DD′ ∥ AA′
Therefore, by the SAS congruence criterion,
△CDD′ ≅ △BAA′
Thus, the area of the removed triangle is equal to the area of the added triangle.
Therefore, the area of the new parallelogram A′B′CD′ is equal to the area of the original parallelogram ABCD.
The new parallelogram has the same base and height as the original parallelogram, but its construction removes the gap. It can now be transformed into a rectangle by drawing a perpendicular from C to A′D′.
Extend DA beyond A and choose A′ such that
AA′ = D′D
Since ABCD is a parallelogram,
AB ∥ CD
and
AB = CD
Also, A′A and D′D lie on the same straight line.
Therefore,
AA′ ∥ DD′
and
AA′ = DD′
Hence, quadrilateral A′B′CD′ is a parallelogram.
Now consider triangles △CDD′ and △BAA′.
We have:
CD = BA
because opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.
Also,
DD′ = AA′
by construction.
Further, the included angles are equal because
CD ∥ BA
and
DD′ ∥ AA′
Therefore, by the SAS congruence criterion,
△CDD′ ≅ △BAA′
Thus, the area of the removed triangle is equal to the area of the added triangle.
Therefore, the area of the new parallelogram A′B′CD′ is equal to the area of the original parallelogram ABCD.
The new parallelogram has the same base and height as the original parallelogram, but its construction removes the gap. It can now be transformed into a rectangle by drawing a perpendicular from C to A′D′.
Therefore,
To fix the gap, extend AD beyond A, choose D′ close to D,
and mark A′ such that
AA′ = D′D.
Then construct the parallelogram A′B′CD′. The equal triangular regions △CDD′ and △BAA′ compensate for each other, so the new parallelogram has the same area as ABCD and can be converted into a rectangle.

Think & Reflect — Solution 6
Chapter 6 • Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area
Question:
Since △ABD and △ACD have equal area, you may wonder—Can we divide △ABD using straight cuts into two or more pieces that we can then rearrange to exactly cover △ACD? What do you think? Is it possible?
Since △ABD and △ACD have equal area, you may wonder—Can we divide △ABD using straight cuts into two or more pieces that we can then rearrange to exactly cover △ACD? What do you think? Is it possible?
✍️ Solution
Yes, it is possible.
In parallelogram ABCD, diagonal AC divides the parallelogram into two triangles, △ABD and △ACD.
These two triangles have the same base AD and equal perpendicular heights because the points B and C lie on a line parallel to AD.
Area (△ABD) = Area (△ACD)
To rearrange △ABD, we can make a straight cut through the triangle to form smaller pieces. These pieces can then be moved and fitted together along the sides of △ACD.
The cut pieces do not overlap and no piece is left over. Since cutting and rearranging do not change the total area, the pieces can exactly cover △ACD.
Equal-area triangles can be divided into pieces and rearranged to cover one another
This is an example of an area-preserving dissection: the shape may change after rearrangement, but the total area remains unchanged.
Therefore,
Yes, △ABD can be divided by straight cuts into smaller pieces. These pieces can be rearranged to exactly cover △ACD because both triangles have equal area.
Yes, △ABD can be divided by straight cuts into smaller pieces. These pieces can be rearranged to exactly cover △ACD because both triangles have equal area.
Final Answer
Yes, it is possible to dissect △ABD and rearrange the pieces to
exactly cover △ACD.

🚨 EXAM ALERT
Chapter 6 Common Exam Traps & Mistakes
Perimeter, Circumference, Arc Length, Area, Heron’s Formula & Sectors के questions में answer गलत होने से बचने के लिए इन common mistakes को solve करने से पहले एक बार जरूर check करें।
⚠️ Golden Rule:
Question में पहले यह पहचानें कि आपको
length चाहिए या area।
फिर सही formula, correct dimensions और
correct units के साथ calculation करें।
MISTAKE 01 · PERIMETER vs AREA
📏 Perimeter और Area को mix करना
Perimeter boundary की total length है, जबकि area enclosed region का measure है। Question में जो पूछा गया है उसी के अनुसार formula चुनें।
✓ Perimeter → length units
✓ Area → square units
✓ Area → square units
MISTAKE 02 · RADIUS & DIAMETER
⭕ Radius और Diameter को interchange करना
Circle में d = 2r और r = d/2। अगर question में diameter दिया है तो उसे सीधे πr² में radius की जगह न रखें।
✓ d = 2r | r = d/2
MISTAKE 03 · CIRCUMFERENCE
🔵 Circumference में wrong formula
Circle की boundary की length के लिए C = 2πr या C = πd use करें। Area का formula πr² circumference के लिए नहीं है।
✓ Circumference = 2πr = πd
MISTAKE 04 · ARC LENGTH
🌙 Arc Length में angle factor भूलना
Arc पूरे circumference का केवल एक हिस्सा होता है। इसलिए central angle θ के लिए पूरे circumference का θ/360° हिस्सा लेना होता है।
✓ Arc Length = θ/360° × 2πr
MISTAKE 05 · SECTOR PERIMETER
◔ Sector का perimeter सिर्फ arc मान लेना
Sector के boundary में केवल curved arc नहीं होता। इसमें दो radii भी शामिल होती हैं। इसलिए sector का perimeter निकालते समय दोनों radii को include करें।
✓ Sector Perimeter = 2r + Arc Length
MISTAKE 06 · TRIANGLE AREA
🔺 Slant side को height मान लेना
Triangle का area निकालते समय height हमेशा चुनी गई base पर perpendicular height होनी चाहिए। कोई भी slant side automatically height नहीं होती।
✓ Area = ½ × base × perpendicular height
MISTAKE 07 · PARALLELOGRAM
▱ Base और corresponding height गलत लेना
Parallelogram में area के लिए base × corresponding perpendicular height लें। Slant side को height मानना common mistake है।
✓ Area = base × corresponding height
MISTAKE 08 · HERON’S FORMULA
📐 Semiperimeter में गलती
Heron’s Formula में s semiperimeter है, पूरा perimeter नहीं। पहले तीनों sides का sum करें और फिर 2 से divide करें।
✓ s = (a + b + c) / 2
MISTAKE 09 · HERON SUBSTITUTION
√[s(s−a)(s−b)(s−c)] में values गलत रखना
Heron’s Formula में चारों factors को carefully substitute करें। प्रत्येक side को s से subtract करना है। Bracket या sign की छोटी गलती पूरा answer बदल देती है।
✓ s−a, s−b, s−c तीनों separately check करें।
MISTAKE 10 · UNITS
📦 Area के साथ square units भूल जाना
Length का answer cm, m, km जैसी units में हो सकता है, लेकिन area का answer cm², m², km² में होना चाहिए। Final answer में unit जरूर लिखें।
✓ Length → cm | Area → cm²
MISTAKE 11 · SECTOR AREA
◔ Sector Area और Arc Length को mix करना
Arc Length length है, जबकि Sector Area region का area है। दोनों में angle factor होता है, लेकिन formulas अलग हैं।
✓ Arc → 2πr | Sector → πr²
MISTAKE 12 · SECTOR & SEGMENT
🌙 Sector और Segment को same समझना
Sector दो radii और एक arc से bounded region है। Segment एक chord और corresponding arc से bounded region है। Diagram में boundary पहचानना जरूरी है।
✓ Sector → 2 radii + arc
✓ Segment → chord + arc
✓ Segment → chord + arc
✅ BEFORE YOU WRITE THE FINAL ANSWER
✓ Question में length या area पूछा है?
✓ Radius या diameter कौन-सा दिया है?
✓ सही formula चुना?
✓ Corresponding perpendicular height ली?
✓ Arc/sector में angle θ सही लिया?
✓ Heron में s = (a+b+c)/2 लिया?
✓ Calculation दोबारा check की?
✓ Final answer के units सही हैं?
