Detailed Solution

It is given the floor of a building consists of 3000 tiles which are rhombus shaped and each of its diagonals are 45 cm and 30 cm in length.
Question ImageLet diagonals be d1 = 45 and d2 = 30.
The area of rhombus is given as = 1 2 × d 1 × d 2  .
Area of one rhombus shaped tile,
1 2 × d 1 × d 2  
1 2 ×45×30  
675 cm 2  
Therefore, area of 3000 rhombus shaped tiles is given as,
Area of 3000 rhombus shaped tile is;
3000×Area of one rhombus shaped tile  
3000×675  
2025000 cm 2  
We know that 1  m 2 =10000 cm 2  
Area of 3000 rhombus shaped tiles = 2025000 10000    Area of 3000 rhombus shaped tiles =202.5 m 2  
The cost of polishing the floor per square meter is given to be Rs.4
Hence the total cost is given as,
Total cost of polishing the floor =202.50×4  
Total cost of polishing the floor = Rs. 810.
Hence option (3) is correct.
