________________ 188 GANITASARASANGRAHA. 10. In the case of a scalone trilateral figure, one side is 13 dundas, the opposite side is 15 dandas; and the base is 14 dandas. So what is the quantitative measure (of the area) of this (figare) P 11. In the case of a figure resembling (the medial longitudinal section of the tusk of an elephant, the length of the outer curve is seen to be 88 dandas ; that of the inner curve is (seen to be) 72 dandas; the measure of the thickness at) thd root of the tusk is 30 dandas. (What is the measure of the area ?) 12. In the case of an equilateral quadrilateral figure, the sides and the opposite sides (whereof) are each 60 dandas in measure, you tell me quiokly, 0 friend, the resulting (quantitative measure (of the area thereof). 13. In the case of a longish quadrilateral figure here, the length is 61 dandas, the breadth is 32. Give out the practically approximate measure (of the area thereof). 14. In the case of a quadrilateral with two equal sides, the length (as measured along either of the oqual sides) is 67 dandas, the breadth of this figure is 38 dandas (at the base) and 33 dandas (at the top. What is the measure of the area of the figuro ?) 15. In the case of a quadrilateral figure with three equal sides, (each of these) three sides measures 108 dandas, the (romaining side here called) mukha or top-side measures 8 dundas and 3 hastas. Accordingly, tell me, 0 mathematician (the measure of the area of this figure). 16. In the case of a quadrilateral the sides of which are all unequal, the side forming the tase measures 38 dandas, the side forming the top is 32 dandas : one of the lateral sides is 50 dindas and the other is 60 dandas. What is the area of this (figure) P 17. In an annulus, the inner circular boundary ineasures 30 dandow; the outer cironlar boundary is seen to be 800. The breadth 11. The shape of the figure mentioned in this stansa sooms to be what is given here in the margin: it is intended that this should be treated as a trilateral fgare, and that the area thereof should be found out in acoordano with the rule given in relation to trilateral figuros.
