Step 1: Calculate the area of the triangular plot. The area of a triangle is:
Area \(= \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Base} \times \text{Height}\)
Substitute the base = 300 feet and height = 200 feet:
Area \(= \frac{1}{2} \times 300 \times 200 = 30,000\) square feet.
Step 2: Calculate the radius of the circular pond. Since the circumference of the circle touches the two equal sides of the triangle, the radius \(r\) is the inradius of the triangle. The inradius is given by:
\(r = \frac{\text{Area}}{\text{Semi-perimeter}}\)
Calculate the semi-perimeter \(s\). Let the two equal sides of the triangle each be \(x\). Using the Pythagoras theorem:
\(x^2 = \left( \frac{\text{Base}}{2} \right)^2 + \text{Height}^2\)
\(x^2 = \left( \frac{300}{2} \right)^2 + 200^2 = 150^2 + 200^2 = 22500 + 40000 = 62500\)
\(x = 250\) feet.
The semi-perimeter is:
\(s = \frac{\text{Base} + 2 \times \text{Equal Side}}{2} = \frac{300 + 2 \times 250}{2} = 400\) feet.
The inradius is:
\(r = \frac{\text{Area}}{s} = \frac{30,000}{400} = 75\) feet.
Step 3: Calculate the area of the circular pond. The area of a circle is:
Area \(= \pi r^2\)
Substitute \(r = 75\):
Area \(= \pi \times 75^2 = 3.14 \times 5625 = 17,662.5\) square feet.
Since half the area is outside the plot, the area outside is:
Outside Area \(= \frac{\text{Total Area}}{2} = \frac{17,662.5}{2} = 8,831.25\) square feet.
Step 4: Calculate the cost. The cost of the land outside is:
Cost = Outside Area × Rate per square feet
Cost \(= 8,831.25 \times 1400 = 12,363,750\) Rs.
Answer: Rs. 4,25,60,000
The center of a circle $ C $ is at the center of the ellipse $ E: \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 $, where $ a>b $. Let $ C $ pass through the foci $ F_1 $ and $ F_2 $ of $ E $ such that the circle $ C $ and the ellipse $ E $ intersect at four points. Let $ P $ be one of these four points. If the area of the triangle $ PF_1F_2 $ is 30 and the length of the major axis of $ E $ is 17, then the distance between the foci of $ E $ is:
