141. Sol, (a) Diagonal of a square = a √2, where a is the side of square.
a √2 = 34 √2 ⇒ a= 34 m
Now, 4a = 2(l + b)

⇒ I + b = 68
Also, I-b=12 ...(ii)
On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
I = 40 m and b = 28 m
∴Area = I x b = 40 x 28 = 1120 𝑚 2

144. Sol. (a) Let a two-digit number = 10x + y
⇒ 10x + y —9 = 10y + x
⇒ 9x — 9y = 9
⇒ x—y= 1
𝑥+𝑦
Also, = 7.5

⇒X + y = 15 ... (ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii),
x = 8 and y=7
∴ Required number

=10 x 8+ 7 = 87
145. Sol. (c) let, CP = Rs 100
Then MP = Rs 150 and SP= Rs 135
Now. 80 % is sold for 135
135 ×100
∴ 100% will be sold for Rs. = Rs 168.75

150. Sol. (c) Let the 5 consecutive odd numbers of set A be 2n + 1, 2n + 3, 2n + 5, 2n +7 and
2n+ 9.
Then, (2n -F I) (2n + 3) + (2n + 5)
(2n+ 7) + (2n + 9) = 125
⇒ 10n + 25 = 125
⇒10n = 100
⇒n = 10
Now, highest number of A = 2n + 9 = 29
∴Smallest number of B = 16 + 29 = 45
∴ Required sum = 45 + 47 + 49 + 51 = 192
