Direction (Qs. 22 to 25): Jhilmil Aunty is making a table cloth. She wants to put a lace border around the boundary of the cloth. She bought 20m lace from the market. Look at the picture of the table cloth given below and answer the questions that follow:

State true/false for the following statements: A: Perimeter of the table cloth is 15m. B: Jhilmil aunty needs only 15m of lace for the table cloth. C: Table cloth is in the shape of a rectangle. D: 6m lace would be left.

A) FTFT                          

B) TTFF        

C) TFTF                          

D) FFTT

Correct Answer: D

Solution :

    Since, perimeter of the table cloth = 5m + 2m + 5m + 2m = 14m. Statement A is false. Since, perimeter is 14m, so Jhilmil aunty needs only 14m of cloth. So, statement B is false. Since, the table cloth is in the shape of a rectangle so statement C is true. Length of lace left = 20m ? 14m = 6m. So, statement D is true. Therefore, the answer is option (d) FFTT.
