A, C and E only

Evaluating Solution Statements

We need to verify the area calculations for each shape mentioned in the options.

Statement A: Right Triangle Area

The area of a right triangle is calculated using the formula: Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}$.

  • Given: base = 10 cm, height = 7 cm
  • Calculation: Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times 10 \text{ cm} \times 7 \text{ cm} = 35 \text{ cm}^2$
  • Conclusion: Statement A is correct.

Statement B: Square Area

The area of a square is calculated using the formula: Area = side$^2$.

  • Given: side = 12 cm
  • Calculation: Area = $(12 \text{ cm})^2 = 144 \text{ cm}^2$
  • Conclusion: Statement B claims the area is 140 cm$^2$, which is incorrect.

Statement C: Rectangle Area

The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula: Area = length $\times$ width.

  • Given: sides = 11 cm and 70 cm
  • Calculation: Area = $11 \text{ cm} \times 70 \text{ cm} = 770 \text{ cm}^2$
  • Conclusion: Statement C is correct.

Statement D: Circle Area (Diameter)

The area of a circle is calculated using the formula: Area = $\pi r^2$. First, find the radius from the diameter. Diameter = 28 cm, so radius $r = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{28 \text{ cm}}{2} = 14 \text{ cm}$. Using $\pi \approx \frac{22}{7}$.

  • Calculation: Area = $\frac{22}{7} \times (14 \text{ cm})^2 = \frac{22}{7} \times 196 \text{ cm}^2 = 22 \times 28 \text{ cm}^2 = 616 \text{ cm}^2$
  • Conclusion: Statement D claims the area is 606 cm$^2$, which is incorrect.

Statement E: Circle Area (Radius)

The area of a circle is calculated using the formula: Area = $\pi r^2$. Using $\pi \approx \frac{22}{7}$.

  • Given: radius = 7 cm
  • Calculation: Area = $\frac{22}{7} \times (7 \text{ cm})^2 = \frac{22}{7} \times 49 \text{ cm}^2 = 22 \times 7 \text{ cm}^2 = 154 \text{ cm}^2$
  • Conclusion: Statement E is correct.

Identifying the Correct Option

The correct statements are A, C, and E.

Checking the options provided:

  • Option 1: B, C and D only (Incorrect)
  • Option 2: B, D and E only (Incorrect)
  • Option 3: A, D and E only (Incorrect)
  • Option 4: A, C and E only (Correct)

Therefore, the option that includes all the correct statements (A, C, and E) is the right choice.
