1. (A) 1 1 1 11 1 + 6 6 5 30 5 5 5 5 6 = 6 6 SOLUTIONS SECTION A. (B) Let the angles be x and 3x respectively x+3x = 180 o (sum of angles on same side of transversal is 180 o ) x=36 0 So, larger angle=3x = 3.36 o =108 o 3. (A) s = a + b + c 15 + 5 + 14 = = 7 Apply the formula = area of a triangle = s(s a)(s b)(s c) = 7(7 15)(7 5)(7 14) = 7(1)()(13) = 18 6 cm 4. (C) Apply the formula (a b) = a + b ab. (3a 7b) = 9a + 49 b x 3 x 7ab 9a + 49b = (3a 7b) + x 3 x 7ab On substitution, we get 9a + 49b = (6) + x 3 x 7 x 5 = 676 + 10 = 886 5. (A) A non-zero constant polynomial has no zero.
6. (B) The highest power in the given polynomial is 7, so degree=7 7. (B) Perimeter of the rhombus = 36cm, hence each side is 9 cm. Area of rhombus = (area of the triangle) = 1 Base Height = Base Height 108 = 9.h h = 1cm 8. (B) x+5y=180 o.30 o +5y = 180 o Thus, y = 4 o SECTION B 9. 1 + x = 180 o (Linear Pass) 1 + 61 o = 180 o 1 = 180 o 61 o 1 = 119 o Now 1 & y are corresponding angle such that
1 = 119 o & y = 118 o i.e. 1 y Therefore, M is not parallel to n. 10. As the point lies on x-axis, its y coordinate is zero. So, it will be of the form (x,0) It is 9 units away from y-axis, so x= 9 Hence its coordinates will be (9,0) Similarly, any point lying on y axis is of the form (0,y) It is -9 units from x axis, so y = -9 Hence its coordinates will be (0,-9) 11. 4 81 8 3 16 + 15 5 3 + 5 1 1 1 1 = 4 3 + 5 + ( 3 4) 8( 6 3) 15 5 ( ) ( 15 ) = 3-8 6 + 15 + 15 =0 1. From the figure we may observe that AC = AB + BC BD = BC + CD Given that AC = BD AB + BC = BC + CD ------ (i)
According to Euclid s axiom, we know that when equals are subtracted from equals, remainders are also equal. Subtracting BC from the equation (i), we have AB + BC BC = BC + CD BC AB = CD Or AOC= BOD (vertically opposite angles) BOD = 40 AOD + BOD = 180 o (Linear pair of angles) AOD =140 o BOC =140 o (vertically opposite angles) 13. x -1 - a a = x (a + a +1) = x (a+1) = (x+a+1)(x-a-1) 14. Since (x-1) is a factor of p(x) = kx + 1 k, p(1)=0 p(1) = k(1) + 1 k
k+1-k = 0 k=1 SECTION C 15. Consider ABC and ABD AB is a common side AC = BD BC = AD (given that diagonals are equal) (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal) ABC BAD (By SSS congruency criterion) ABC= DAB...CPCT But, ABC+ DAB=180 o (adjacent angles of a parallelogram) ABC= DAB=90 o Next, if the diagonals intersect at O, Consider AOB and AOD AOB = AOD (each 90 o ) AO is the common side BO = OD (diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other) AOB AOD (By SAS congruency criterion) AB = AD So we can say that ABCD is a square as its adjacent sides are equal and one angle is a right angle.
OR Consider triangles CAB and DBA A = B (each 90 o ) AB = AB (common) AD = BC (opposite sides of a parallelogram) Therefore, CAB DBA (SAS) AC = DB (c.p.c.t) Hence diagonals of a rectangle are equal. Consider triangle AOB and BOC AO=OC OB is common but we cannot locate 3 rd point to make triangles congruent. Hence we cannot prove AOB = BOC to make diagonals perpendicular. 16. x 1 + + x x x 1 1 = + + + x x x x 1 1 = x + x + x x 1 1 = x + x + x x OR

Let y = 3k & z = 7k 375 15m x = z (Alternate angles) x = 7k x + y = 180 o (Interior angles on same sets of transversal)
7k + 3k = 180 o k = 18 o x = 7k = 7 x 18 o = 16 o [1½] y = 3k = 3 x 18 o = 54 o z = x = 16 o 19.

Using Pythagoras Theorem: 5= +1 Taking positive square root we get 5 = ( ) + ( 1)
1. We mark a point A representing units on number line.. Now we construct AB of unit length perpendicular to OA. Join OB 3. Now taking O as centre and OB as radius lets draw an arc, intersecting number line at point C. 4. Point C represents 5 on number line [1½] 1. BD = DC = BC/ (As AD is given to be a median) AD > BC/ (given) AD > BD from (i) In triangle ABD, B > BAD... (ii) (The side opposite to the bigger angle is longer) Similarly, in triangle ACD, C > CAD.

8. (a) Let A be the point having coordinates (3, ) and B be the point with coordinates (, 3). Now on plotting, we get the required plot as: The position of point A (3, ) and (, 3) is different on the Cartesian plane. So, (3, ) and (, 3) are the two distinct points. [] (b) Let A be the point having coordinates (-1, 5) and B be the point with coordinate (1, 5). Now on plotting, we get the required plot as:
The position of point A(-1, 5) and B (1, 5) is different on the Cartesian plane. So, (-1, 5) and B (1, 5) are the two distinct points. [] 9. 16x 16x n+ 1 4x n n+ n+ x 4 n+ 1 n x x = x x 4 n+ n+ n+ 5 n+ = n+ 6 n+ 3 n+ 5 n+ =.. n+ 5 n+ n+ 5 n+ ( ) n+ 5 n+ ( ) 1 = = Or

(i) In BAD and CAD ADB = ADC AB = AC AD = AD (each 90º as AD is an altitude) (given) (common) BAD CAD (by RHS Congruence rule) [] BD = CD (by CPCT) Hence AD bisects BC (ii) Also by CPCT, BAD = CAD Hence, AD bisects A. [1½] Or In ABC
AB = AC ACB = ABC (given) (angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are also equal) Now In ACD AC = AD ADC = ACD (angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are also equal) Now, in BCD ABC + BCD + ADC = 180º (angle sum property of a triangle) ACB + ACB + ACD + ACD = 180º ( ACB + ACD) = 180º ( BCD) = 180º BCD = 90º 31. As PR > PQ PQR > PRQ (angle opposite to larger side is larger)... (1) PS is the bisector of QPR QPS = RPS... () Now, PSR is the exterior angle of PQS PSR = PQR + QPS... (3) Now, PSQ is the exterior angle of PRS PSQ = PRQ + RPS... (4) Now, adding equations (1) and (), we have PQR + QPS > PRQ + RPS PSR > PSQ [Using the values of equations (3) and (4)] 3.
Given: In ABC, AD, BE and CF are the altitudes and they are all equal To prove: ABC is equilateral. Proof: In right triangles BCE and BFC, Hypotenuse BC = hypotenuse CB (common) BFC = BEC = 90 o Side BE = side CF [given] Therefore, BCE CBF [by RHS theorem] Therefore, B = C [corresponding angles of congruent triangles] AB = AC ---- (i) [sides opposite equal angles of a triangle are equal] Similarly, ABD CAF Therefore, B = A AC = BC ---- (ii) From (i) and (ii) we get, BC = CA = AB Hence, ABC is an equilateral triangle. 33.
