II. Answer the Following Question

Question 1.
Given Sec θ = \(\frac{13}{12}\). Calculate all other trigonometric ratios.
Solution:
In the right triangle ABC

BC² = AC² – AB²
= 13² – 12²
= 169 – 144
= 25
∴ BC = \(\sqrt{25}\)
= 5

Question 2.
If 3 cot A = 4 check weather \(\frac{1- tan²A}{1+ tan²A}\) = cos² A – sin² A or not?
Solution:
3 cot A = 4
cot A = \(\frac{4}{3}\)
In the right ΔABC

AC² = AB² + BC²
= 4² + 3²
= 16 + 9
= 25
= \(\sqrt{25}\)
= 5

Hence \(\frac{1- tan²A}{1+ tan²A}\) = cos² A – sin² A
R.H.S = cos² A – sin² A

L.H.S = R.H.S

Question 3.
Evaluate \(\frac{sin 30° + tan 45° – cosec 60°}{sec 30° + cos 60° + cot 45°}\)
Solution:
sin 30° = \(\frac{1}{2}\); tan 45° = 1; cosec 60° = \(\frac{2}{√3}\); sec 30° = \(\frac{2}{√3}\); cos 60° = \(\frac{1}{2}\); cot 45° = 1
\(\frac{sin 30° + tan 45° – cosec 60°}{sec 30° + cos 60° + cot 45°}\)

The value is \(\frac{43-24√3}{11}\)

Question 4.
Find A if sin 20° tan A sec 70° = √3
Solution:
sin 20° . tan A . sec 70° = √3
sin 20° . sec 70° . tan A = √3
sin (90° – 70°). sec 70° . tan A = √3
cos 70° × latex]\frac{1}{cos 70°}[/latex] tan A = √3
tan A = √3
tan A = tan 60°
∴ ∠A = 60°

Question 5.
Find the area of the right triangle with hypotenuse 8 cm and one of the acute angles is 57°
Solution:
In the ΔABC

sin C = \(\frac{AB}{AC}\)
Sin 57° = \(\frac{AB}{8}\)
0.8387 = \(\frac{AB}{8}\)
∴ AB = 0.8387 × 8
= 0.71 cm
In the ΔABC
cos C = \(\frac{BC}{AC}\)
cos 57° = \(\frac{BC}{8}\)
0.5446 = \(\frac{BC}{8}\)
BC = 0.5446 × 8
= 4.36
Area of the right ΔABC
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × AB × BC sq. units
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 6.71 × 4.36 cm²
= 14.62 cm²
Area of the Δ = 14.62 cm²

L.C.M. = (x + y)(x – y) (x² + xy + y²)
(x² – xy + y²)
= [(x + y) (x² – xy +y²)]
[(x – y) (x² + xy + y²)]
= (x³ + y³) (x³ – y³)
L.C.M. = x⁶ – y⁶

15z = 5x + 3y + 30
-5x – 3y + 15z = 30
5x + 3y – 15z = -30 ………(2)
By the given third condition

substitute the value of x = 60 in ….(1)
2(60) – 3y = 0
120 = 3y
y = \(\frac { 120 }{ 3 } \) = 40
substitute the value of x = 60 and y = 40 in (3)

Question 5.
Find the G.C.D. of x³ – 10x² + 31x – 30 and 2x³ – 8x² + 2x + 12
Answer:
p(x) = x³ – 10x² + 31x – 30
g(x) = 2x³ – 8x² + 2x + 12
= 2(x³ – 4x² + x + 6)

G.C.D. = x² – 5x + 6

Question 6.
The G.C.D of x⁴ + 3x³ + 5x² + 26x + 56 and x⁴ + 2x³ – 4x² – x + 28 is x² + 5x + 7. Find their L.C.M.
Answer:
p(x) = x⁴ + 3x³ + 5x² + 26x + 56
g(x) = x⁴ + 2x³ – 4x² – x + 28
G.C.D. = x² + 5x + 7

Question 7.
Find the values of “a” and “b” given that p(x) = (x² + 3x + 2) (x² – 4x + a); g(x) = (x² – 6x + 9) × (x² + 4x + b) and their G.C.D is (x + 2) (x – 3)
Answer:
p(x) = (x² + 3x + 2) (x² – 4x + a)
= (x + 1) (x + 2) (x² – 4x + a)
G.C.D is given as (x + 2) (x – 3)
x – 3 is a factor of x² – 4x + a

p(3) = 0
9 – 4(3) + a = 0
9 – 12 + a = 0
– 3 + a =0
a = 3

g(x) = (x² – 6x + 9) (x² + 4x + 6)
= (x – 3) (x – 3) (x² + 4x + b)
But G.C.D. is (x + 2) (x – 3)
∴ x + 2 is a factor of x² + 4x + 6
g(-2) = 0
4 + 4(-2) + b = 0
4 – 8 + 6 = 0
-4 + b = 0
b = 4
The value of a = 3 and b = 4

Question 8.
Find the other polynomial g(x), given that LCM, HCF and p(x) as (x – 1) (x – 2) (x² – 3x + 3); x – 1 and x³ – 4x² + 6x – 3 respectively.
Answer:
LC.M. = (x – 1) (x – 2) (x² – 3x + 3)
HCF = (x – 1)
p(x) = x³ – 4x² + 6x – 3

p(x) = (x – 1) (x² – 3x + 3)
p(x) × g(x) = LCM × HCF
(x – 1) (x² – 3x + 3) × g(x)
= (x – 1) (x – 2) (x² – 3x + 3) (x – 1)

The other polynominal g(x) x² – 3x + 2

Question 9.
Divide

Answer:
2x² + x – 3 = 2x² + 3x – 2x – 3
= x(2x + 3) – 1 (2x + 3)
= (2x + 3) (x – 1)

2x² + 5x + 3 = 2x² + 3x + 2x + 3
= x(2x + 3) + 1 (2x + 3)
= (2x + 3) (x + 1)
x² -1 = (x + 1) (x – 1)

Question 10.
Simplify

Answer:
(x² – x – 6) = (x – 3) (x + 2)
2x² + 5x – 3 = 2×2 + 6x – x – 3

= 2x (x + 3) -1 (x + 3)
= (x + 3) (2x – 1)
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 2) (x + 3)

Question 11.
Find the square root of (6x² + 5x – 6) (6x² – x – 2) (4x² + 8x + 3)
Answer:
6x² + 5x – 6 = 6x² + 9x – 4x – 6
= 3x(2x + 3) -2 (2x + 3)
= (2x + 3) (3x – 2)

6x² – x – 2 = 6x² – 4x + 3x – 2
= 2x (3x – 2) + 1 (3x – 2)
= (3x – 2) (2x + 1)

4x² + 8x + 3 = 4x² + 6x + 2x + 3
= 2x(2x + 3) + 1 (2x + 3)
= (2x + 3) (2x + 1)

Question 12.
Find the square root of the polynomial

Answer:
Arrange the polynomial in descending power of x.
9x⁴ + 12x³ + 28x² – nx + m
Now,

Since the given polynomial is a perfect square,
-nx – 16x = 0
-x (n + 16) = 0
n + 16 = 0 ⇒ n = -16
m – 16 = 0 ⇒ m = 16
The value m = 16 and n = -16

Question 14.
If b + \(\frac { a }{ x } \) + \(\frac{13}{x^{2}}\) – \(\frac{6}{x^{3}}\) + \(\frac{1}{x^{4}}\) is a perfect square, find the values of “a” and “b”
Answer:
Arrange the values of “a” and “b”

Since it is a perfect square
\(\frac { a }{ x } \) + \(\frac { 12 }{ x } \) = 0
\(\frac { 1 }{ x } \) (a + 12) = 0
a + 12 = 0 ⇒ a = -12
b – 4 = 0 ⇒ b = 4
The value of a = -12 and b = 4

Question 15.
Solve
\(\frac { 1 }{ x + 1 } \) + \(\frac { 4 }{ 3x+6 } \) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
Answer:

6x² – 12x + 9x – 18 = 0
6x(x – 2) + 9(x – 2) = 0

(x – 2) (6x + 9) = 0
x – 2 = 0 or 6x + 9 = 0
x = 2 or 6x + 9 = 0
x = 2 or 6x = -9
x = – \(\frac { 9 }{ 6 } \) = \(\frac { -3 }{ 2 } \)
The solution is \(\frac { -3 }{ 2 } \) or 2

Question 16.
A two-digit number is such that the product of the digits is 14. When 45 is added to the number, the digits interchange their places. Find the number (solve by completing square method)
Answer:
Let the ten’s digit be “x”
∴ The unit digit = \(\frac { 14 }{ x } \)
∴ The number is 10x + \(\frac { 14 }{ x } \)
If the digits are interchanged the number is \(\frac { 140 }{ x } \) + x
By the given condition
10x + \(\frac { 14 }{ x } \) + 45 = \(\frac { 140 }{ x } \) + x
multiply by x
10x² + 14 + 45x = 140 + x²
9x² + 45x + 14 – 140 = 0
9x² + 45x – 126 = 0
Divided by 9
x² + 5x – 14 = 0
x² + 5x = 14

Since the digit of the number can not be negative
∴ x = 2
The number = 10x + \(\frac { 14 }{ x } \)
= 20 + \(\frac { 14 }{ 2 } \)
= 20 + 7
= 27
The number is 27

Question 17.
A rectangular garden 10 m by 16 m is to be surrounded by a concreate walk of uniform width. Given that the area of walk is 120 sqm assuming the width of walk be ‘V form the equation then solve it by formula method.
Answer:
Area of the garden = 16 × 10
= 160 sq.m

Area of the garden with walking area
= (1.6 + 2x) (10 + 2x)
= 160 + 32x + 20x + 4x²
= 4x² + 52x + 160
Area of the concrete walk = Area of the garden with walk – Area of garden
= 4x² + 52x + 160 – 160
120 = 4x² + 52x
4x² + 52x – 120 = 0
(÷ by 4) ⇒ x² + 13x – 30 = 0
Here a = 1, b = 13, c = -30
(comparing with ax² + bx + c = 0)

Since the width cannot be negative. Width of the garden = 2 m

Question 18.

Answer:
Comparing with ax² + bx + c = 0
a = 3, b = -5, c = 2
α and β are the roots of the equation
3x² – 5x + 2 = 0



(iii) \(\frac{\alpha^{2}}{\beta}+\frac{\beta^{2}}{\alpha}=\frac{\alpha^{3}+\beta^{3}}{\alpha \beta}\)

If α and β are the roots of the equation 3x² – 6x + 1 = 0 from the equation whose roots are
(i) α² β;β²α
(ii) 2α + β; 2β + a
Answer:
α and β are the roots of 3x² – 6x + 1 = 0
α + β = \(\frac { 6 }{ 3 } \) = 2
αβ = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
(i) Given the roots are α²β and β²α
Sum of the roots = α²β + β²α
= αβ (α + β)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)(2)
= \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
Product of the roots = (α²β) x (β²α)
= α²β²
= (αβ)³
= (\(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \))³
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 27 } \)
The quadratic equation is
x² – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x² – (\(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)) x + \(\frac { 1 }{ 27 } \) = 0
multiply by 27
27x² – 18x + 1 = 0

(ii) Given the roots are 2α + β; 2 β + α
Sum of the roots = 2α + β + 2 β + α
= 2(α + β) + (α + β)
= 2(2) + 2
= 6

The quadratic polynomial is
x² – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x² – 6x + \(\frac { 25 }{ 3 } \) = 0
3x² – 18x + 25 = 0

In ∆ABC, D and E are points on the sides AB and AC respectively such that DE || BC
(i) If \(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \) and AC = 15 cm find AE.
(ii) If AD = 8x – 7 , DB = 5x – 3 , AE = 4x – 3 and EC = 3x – 1, find the value of x.
Solution:
(i) Let AE be x
∴ EC = 15 – x
In ∆ABC we have DE || BC
By Basic proportionality theorem, we have

\(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { AE }{ EC } \)
\(\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \) = \(\frac { x }{ 15-x } \)
4x = 3 (15 – x)
4x = 45 – 3x
7x = 45 ⇒ x = \(\frac { 45 }{ 7 } \) = 6.43
The value of x = 6.43

(ii) Given AD = 8x – 7; BD = 5x – 3; AE = 4x – 3; EC = 3x – 1
In ∆ABC we have DE || BC
By Basic proportionality theorem
\(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { AE }{ EC } \)
\(\frac { 8x-7 }{ 5x-3 } \) = \(\frac { 4x-3 }{ 3x-1 } \)

(8x – 7) (3x – 1) = (4x – 3) (5x – 3)
24x² – 8x – 21x + 7 = 20x² – 12x – 15x + 9
24x² – 20x² – 29x + 27x + 7 – 9 = 0
4x² – 2x – 2 = 0
2x² – x – 1 = 0 (Divided by 2)

2x² – 2x + x – 1 = 0
2x(x -1) + 1 (x – 1) = 0
(x – 1) (2x + 1) = 0
x – 1 = 0 or 2x + 1 = 0
x = 1 or 2x = -1 ⇒ x = – \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) (Negative value will be omitted)

By basic proportionality theorem.
\(\frac { AS }{ SC } \) = \(\frac { AP }{ PD } \)
\(\frac { AS }{ SC } \) = \(\frac { x }{ 18 } \) ………..(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
\(\frac { 35 }{ 15 } \) = \(\frac { x }{ 18 } \)
15x = 35 × 18 ⇒ x = \(\frac{35 \times 18}{15}\) = 42
AD = AP + PD
= 42 + 18 = 60
The value of AD = 60 cm

(ii) AB = 5.6 cm, AD = 1.4 cm, AC = 7.2 cm and AE = 1.8 cm.
Solution:
(i) Here AB = 12 cm; BD =12 – 8 = 4 cm; AE =12 cm; EC = 18 – 12 = 6 cm

∴ \(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { 8 }{ 4 } \) = 2
\(\frac { AE }{ EC } \) = \(\frac { 12 }{ 6 } \) = 2
\(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { AE }{ EC } \)
By converse of basic proportionality theorem DE || BC

(ii) Here AB = 5.6 cm; AD = 1.4 cm;
BD = AB – AD
= 5.6 – 1.4 = 4.2

AC = 7.2 cm; AE = 1.8 cm
EC = AC – AE
= 7.2 – 1.8
EC = 5.4 cm
\(\frac { AD }{ DB } \) = \(\frac { 1.4 }{ 4.2 } \) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
\(\frac { AE }{ EC } \) = \(\frac { 1.8 }{ 5.4 } \) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
\(\frac { AE }{ EC } \) = \(\frac { AD }{ DB } \)
By converse of basic proportionality theorem DE || BC

Rhombus PQRB is inscribed in ∆ABC such that ∠B is one of its angle. P, Q and R lie on AB, AC and BC respectively. If AB = 12 cm and BC = 6 cm, find the sides PQ, RB of the rhombus.
Solution:
Let the side of the rhombus be “x”. Since PQRB is a Rhombus PQ || BC
By basic proportionality theorem

\(\frac { AP }{ AB } \) = \(\frac { PQ }{ BC } \) ⇒ \(\frac { 12-x }{ BC } \) = \(\frac { x }{ 6 } \)
12x = 6 (12 – x)
12x = 72 – 6x
12x + 6x = 72
18x = 72 ⇒ x = \(\frac { 72 }{ 18 } \) = 4
Side of a rhombus = 4 cm
PQ = RB = 4 cm

Question 6.
In trapezium ABCD, AB || DC , E and F are points on non-parallel sides AD and BC respectively, such that EF || AB.
Show that = \(\frac { AE }{ ED } \) = \(\frac { BF }{ FC } \)
Solution:
Given: ABCD is a trapezium AB || DC
E and F are the points on the side AD and BC
EF || AB
To Prove: \(\frac { AE }{ ED } \) = \(\frac { BF }{ FC } \)

Construction: Join AC intersecting AC at P
Proof:
In ∆ABC, PF || AB (Given)
By basic proportionality theorem
\(\frac { AP }{ PC } \) = \(\frac { BF }{ FC } \) ………..(1)
In the ∆ACD, PE || CD (Given)
By basic Proportionality theorem
\(\frac { AP }{ PC } \) = \(\frac { AE }{ ED } \) …………..(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
\(\frac { AE }{ ED } \) = \(\frac { BF }{ FC } \)

Question 7.
In figure DE || BC and CD || EE Prove that AD² = AB × AF.

Solution:
Given: In ∆ABC, DE || BC and CD || EF

To Prove: AD² = AB × AF
Proof: In ∆ABC, DE || BC (Given)
By basic proportionality theorem
\(\frac { AB }{ AD } \) = \(\frac { AC }{ AE } \) ……….. (1)
In ∆ADC; FE || DC (Given)
By basic Proportionality theorem
\(\frac { AD }{ AF } \) = \(\frac { AC }{ AE } \) ……..(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
\(\frac { AB }{ AD } \) = \(\frac { AD }{ AF } \)
AD² = AB × AF
Hence it is proved

Question 8.
In ∆ABC, AD is the bisector of ∠A meeting side BC at D, if AB = 10 cm, AC = 14 cm and BC = 6 cm, find BD and DC.
Solution:
In ∆AABC AD is the internal bisector of ∠A
Given BC = 6 cm
Let BD = x ∴ DC = 6 – x cm
By Angle bisector theorem
\(\frac { BD }{ DC } \) = \(\frac { AB }{ AC } \)
\(\frac { x }{ 6-x } \) = \(\frac { 10 }{ 14 } \)

14x = 60 – 10x
24x = 60
x = \(\frac { 60 }{ 24 } \) = \(\frac { 10 }{ 4 } \) = 2.5
BD = 2.5 cm;
DC = 6 – x ⇒ 2.5 = 3.5 cm

Question 9.
Check whether AD is bisector of ∠A of ∆ABC in each of the following,
(i) AB = 5 cm, AC = 10 cm, BD = 1.5 cm and CD = 3.5 cm.
(ii) AB = 4 cm, AC 6 cm, BD = 1.6 cm and CD = 2.4 cm.
Solution:
(i) In ∆ABC, AB = 5 cm, AC = 10 cm, BD = 1.5 cm, CD = 3.5 cm
\(\frac { BD }{ DC } \) = \(\frac { 1.5 }{ 3.5 } \) = \(\frac { 15 }{ 35 } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 7 } \)
\(\frac { AB }{ AC } \) = \(\frac { 5 }{ 10 } \) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \)

\(\frac { BD }{ DC } \) ≠ \(\frac { AB }{ AC } \)
∴ AD is not a bisector of ∠A.

(ii) In ∆ABC, AB = 4 cm, AC = 6 cm, BD = 1.6 cm, CD = 2.4 cm

\(\frac { BD }{ DC } \) = \(\frac { 1.6 }{ 2.4 } \) = \(\frac { 16 }{ 24 } \) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
\(\frac { AB }{ AC } \) = \(\frac { 4 }{ 6 } \) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \)
∴ \(\frac { BD }{ DC } \) = \(\frac { AB }{ AC } \)
By angle bisector theorem; AD is the internal bisector of ∠A

Question 10.
In figure ∠QPR = 90°, PS is its bisector.
If ST ⊥ PR, prove that ST × (PQ + PR) = PQ × PR.
Solution:
Given: ∠QPR = 90°; PS is the bisector of ∠P. ST ⊥ ∠PR

To prove: ST × (PQ + PR) = PQ × PR
Proof: In ∆ PQR, PS is the bisector of ∠P.
∴ \(\frac { PQ }{ QR } \) = \(\frac { QS }{ SR } \)
Adding (1) on both side
1 + \(\frac { PQ }{ QR } \) = 1 + \(\frac { QS }{ SR } \)
\(\frac { PR+PQ }{ PR } \) = \(\frac { SR+QS }{ SR } \)
\(\frac { PQ+PR }{ PR } \) = \(\frac { QR }{ SR } \) ……….(1)
In ∆ RST And ∆ RQP
∠SRT = ∠QRP = ∠R (Common)
∴ ∠QRP = ∠STR = 90°
(By AA similarity) ∆ RST ~ RQP
\(\frac { SR }{ QR } \) = \(\frac { ST }{ PQ } \)
\(\frac { QR }{ SR } \) = \(\frac { PQ }{ ST } \) ……..(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
\(\frac { PQ+PR }{ PR } \) = \(\frac { PQ }{ ST } \)
ST (PQ + PR) = PQ × PR

Question 11.
ABCD is a quadrilateral in which AB = AD, the bisector of ∠BAC and ∠CAD intersect the sides BC and CD at the points E and F respectively. Prove that EF || BD.
Solution:
ABCD is a quadrilateral. AB = AD.
AE and AF are the internal bisector of ∠BAC and ∠DAC.

To prove: EF || BD.
Construction: Join EF and BD
Proof: In ∆ ABC, AE is the internal bisector of ∠BAC.
By Angle bisector theorem, we have,
∴ \(\frac { AB }{ AC } \) = \(\frac { BE }{ EC } \) ………(1)
In ∆ ADC, AF is the internal bisector of ∠DAC
By Angle bisector theorem, we have,
\(\frac { AD }{ AC } \) = \(\frac { DF }{ FC } \)
∴ \(\frac { AB }{ AC } \) = \(\frac { DF }{ FC } \) (AB = AD given) ………(2)
From (1) and (2), we get,
\(\frac { BE }{ EC } \) = \(\frac { DF }{ FC } \)
Hence in ∆ BCD,
BD || EF (by converse of BPT)

Using Heron’s formula, find the area of a triangle whose sides are
(i) 10 cm, 24 cm, 26 cm
Solution:
Let a = 10 cm, b = 24 cm and c = 26 cm
s = \(\frac{a + b + c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{10 + 24 + 26}{2}\)
s = \(\frac{60}{2}\)
= 30 cm
s – a = 30 – 10 = 20 cm
s – b = 30 – 24 = 6 cm
s – c = 30 – 26 = 4 cm
Area of a triangle

= 2³ × 3 × 5
= 8 × 3 × 5
= 120 cm²
Area of a triangle = 120 cm²

(ii) 1.8 m, 8 m, 8.2 m
Solution:
Here a = 1.8 m, b = 8 m, c = 8.2 m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{(1.8+8+8.2)m}{2}\)
= \(\frac{18}{2}\)
= 9 m
s – a = 9 – 1.8 = 7.2 m
s – b = 9 – 8 = 1 m
s – c = 9 – 8.2 m = 0.8 m
Area of triangle

= 3 × 2.4
= 7.2 m²
∴ Area of the triangle = 7.2 sq. m

Question 2.
The sides of the triangular ground are 22 m, 120 m and 122 m. Find the area and cost of levelling the ground at the rate of Rs 20 per m².

a = 22 m, b = 120 m, c = 122 m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
\(\frac{22+120+122}{2}\)m
= 132
s – a = 132 – 22 = 110 m
s – b = 132 – 120 = 12 m
s – c = 132 – 122 = 10 m

= 4 × 3 × 10 × 11
= 1320 sq.m
Cost of levelling for one sq.m = Rs 20
Cost of levelling the ground = Rs 1320 × 20
= Rs 26400
Area of the ground = Rs 1320 sq.m

The perimeter of a triangular plot is 600 m. If the sides are in the ratio 5 : 12 : 13, then find the area of the plot.
Solution:
Let the side of the triangle a, b and c be 5x, 12x and 13x
Perimeter of a triangular plot = 600 m
5x + 12x + 13x = 600
30x = 600 ⇒ x = \(\frac{600}{30}\)
x = 20
a = 5x = 5 × 20 = 100 m
b = 12x = 12 × 20 = 240 m
c = 13x = 13 × 20 = 260 m
s = \(\frac{600}{2}\)
= 300 m
s – a = 300 – 100 = 200 m
s – b = 300 – 240 = 60 m
s – c = 300 – 260 = 40 m
Area of triangle

= 10³ × 3 × 2 × 2 m²
= 1000 × 12 m²
= 12000 m²
Area of the triangular Plot = 12000 sq.m

Find the area of an equilateral triangle whose perimeter is 180 cm.
Solution:
Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 180 cm
3a = 180
a = \(\frac{180}{3}\)
= 60 m
Area of an equilateral triangle
= \(\frac{√3}{4}\) a² sq.unit
= \(\frac{√3}{4}\) × 60 × 60 sq.m
= √3 × 15 × 60 sq.m
= 1.732 × 15 × 60 sq.m
= 1558.8 sq.m
Area of an equilateral triangle = 1558.8 sq.m

Question 5.
An advertisement board is in the form of an isosceles triangle with perimeter 36 m and each of the equal sides are 13 m. Find the cost of painting it at Rs 17.50 per square metre.
Solution:
Equal sides of a triangle = 13m
Perimeter of an isosceles triangle = 36 m
Length of the third side = 36 – (13 + 13) m
= 36 – 26
= 10 m
Here a = 13m, b = 13m and c = 10m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{36}{2}\)
= 18 m
s – a = 18 – 13 = 5 m
s – b = 18 – 13 = 5 m
s – c = 18 – 10 = 8 m

= 2² × 3 × 5
= 60 sq.m
Cost of painting for one sq. m = Rs 17.50
Cost of painting for 60 sq. m = Rs 60 × 17.50
= Rs 1050

Question 6.
Find the area of the unshaded region.

Solution:
Since ABD is a right angle triangle
AB² = AD² + BD²
= 12² + 16²
= 144 + 256
= 400
AB = \(\sqrt{400}\)
= 20 cm
Area of the right angle triangle = \(\frac{1}{2}\) bh sq.unit
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 12 × 16 cm²
= 6 × 16 cm²
= 96 cm²
To find the Area of the triangle ABC
Here a = 42 cm, b = 34 cm, c = 20 cm
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{42+34+20}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{96}{2}\)
= 48 cm
s – a = 48 – 42 = 6 cm
s – b = 48 – 34 = 14 m
s – c = 48 – 20 = 28 m
Area of triangle

= 16 × 3 × 7 cm²
= 336 cm²
Area of the unshaded region = Area of the ΔABC – Area of the ΔABD
= (336 – 96) cm²
= 240 cm²

Question 7.
Find the area of a quadrilateral ABCD whose sides are AB = 13 cm, BC = 12 cm, CD = 9 cm, AD = 14 cm and diagonal BD = 15 cm.
Solution:
In the triangle ABD,

Let a = 15 cm, b = 14 cm c = 13 cm
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{15+14+13}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{42}{2}\)
= 21 cm
s – a = 21 – 15 = 6 cm
s – b = 21 – 14 = 7 cm
s – c = 21 – 13 = 8 cm
Area of ΔABD

= 2² × 3 × 7 3
= 84 cm²
In the ΔBCD,
Let a = 15 cm, b = 9 cm, c = 12 cm
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{15+9+12}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{36}{2}\)
= 18 cm
s – a = 18 – 15 = 3 cm
s – b = 18 – 9 = 9 cm
s – c = 18 – 12 = 6 cm
Area of the ΔBCD

= 2 × 3³
= 2 × 27 sq.cm
= 54 sq. cm
Area of the quadrilateral ABCD = Area of ΔABD + Area of ΔBCD
= (84 + 54) sq.cm
= 138 sq.cm

Question 8.
A park is in the shape of a quadrilateral. The sides of the park are 15 m, 20 m, 26 m and 17 m and the angle between the first two sides is a right angle. Find the area of the park.
Solution:

In the right angle triangle ABC (Given ⌊B= 90°)
AC² = AB² + BC²
= 15² + 20²
= 225 + 400
AC² = 625
AC = \(\sqrt{225}\)
= 25 m
Area of the right ΔABC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × AB × BC
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 15 × 20 sq.m
= 150 sq.m
In the triangle ACD
a = 25 m b = 17 m, c = 26 m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{25+17+26}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{62}{2}\)
= 34 m
s – a = 34 – 25 = 9 m
s – b = 34 – 17 = 17 m
s – c = 34 – 26 = 8 m
Area of the triangle ACD

4 × 3 × 17
= 204 sq.m
Area of the quadrilateral = Area of the ΔABC + Area of the ΔACD
= (150 + 204) sq.m
= 354 sq.m
Area of the quadrilateral = 354 sq.m

Question 9.
A land is in the shape of rhombus. The perimeter of the land is 160 m and one of the diagonal is 48 m. Find the area of the land.
Solution:

Perimeter of the rhombus = 160 m
4 × side = 160
Side of a rhombus = \(\frac{160}{4}\)
= 40 m
In ΔABC, a = 40 m, b = 40 m, c = 48 m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{40+40+48}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{128}{2}\)
= 64 m
s – a = 64 – 40 = 24 m
s – b = 64 – 40 = 24 m
s – c = 64 – 48 = 16m
Area of the ΔABC = \(\sqrt{64×24×24×16}\)
= 8 × 24 × 4
= 768 sq.m
Since ABCD is a rhombus Area of two triangles are equal.
Area of the rhombus ABCD = (768 + 768) sq.m
= 1536 sq.m
∴ Area of the land = 1536 sq.m

Question 10.
The adjacent sides of a parallelogram measures 34 m, 20 m and the measure of the diagonal is 42 m. Find the area of parallelogram.
Solution:
Since ABCD is a parallelogram opposite sides are equal.

In the ΔABC
a = 20 m, b = 42 m and c = 34 m
s = \(\frac{a+b+c}{2}\)
= \(\frac{20+42+34}{2}\) cm
= \(\frac{96}{2}\)
= 48 m
s – a = 48 – 20 = 28 m
s – b = 48 – 42 = 6 m
s – c = 48 – 34 = 14 m
Area of the ΔABC

= 2⁴ × 3 × 7 sq.m
= 16 × 3 × 7 sq.m
= 336 sq.m
Since ABCD is a parallelogram
Area of ΔABC and Area of ΔACD are equal
Area of the parallelogram ABCD = (336 + 336) sq.m
= 672 sq.m
∴ Area of the parallelogram = 672 sq.m

Question 1.
A company manufactures 10000 Laptops in 6 months. In that 25 of them are found to be defective. When you choose one Laptop from the manufactured, what is the probability that selected Laptop is a good one?
Solution:
Total number of laptops = 10000
∴ n(S) = 10000
Number of good laptops = 10000 – 25 = 9975
Let E be the event of getting good laptops
n(E) = 9975
P(E) = \(\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{9975}{10000}\)
= \(\frac{399}{400}\) (or)
= 0.9975

Question 2.
In a survey of 400 youngsters aged 16-20 years, it was found that 191 have their voter ID card. If a youngster is selected at random, find the probability that the youngster does not have their voter ID card.
Solution:
Here n(S) = 400
Number of persons having voter ID = 191
Number of persons does not have their voter ID
= 400 – 191
= 209
n(E) = 209
P(E) = \(\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{209}{400}\)
∴ The required probability is \(\frac{209}{400}\)

Question 3.
The probability of guessing the correct answer to a certain question is \(\frac{x}{3}\). If the probability of not guessing the correct answer is \(\frac{x}{5}\), then find the value of x.
Solution:
Probability of guessing the correct answer = \(\frac{x}{3}\)
P(E) = \(\frac{x}{3}\)
Probability of not guessing the correct answer = \(\frac{x}{5}\)
P(E)’ = \(\frac{x}{5}\)
But P(E) + P(E)’ = 1
\(\frac{x}{3}\) + \(\frac{x}{5}\) = 1
\(\frac{5x+3x}{15}\) = 1 ⇒ \(\frac{8x}{15}\) = 1
8x = 15
x = \(\frac{15}{8}\)
∴ The value of x = \(\frac{15}{8}\)

Question 4.
If a probability of a player winning a particular tennis match is 0.72. What is the probability of the player loosing the match?
Solution:
Probability of a player winning a tennis match = 0.72
P(E) = 0.72
Probability of a player loosing the match be P(E)’
But P(E) + P(E)’ = 1
0.72 + P(E)’ = 1
P(E)’ = 1 – 0.72
= 0.28
Probability of the player loosing the match = 0.28

Question 5.
1500 families were surveyed and following data was recorded about their maids at homes

A family selected at random. Find the probability that the family selected has
(i) Both types of maids
(ii) Part time maids
(iii) No maids
Solution:
Total number of families surveyed = 1500
n(S) = 1500
Number of families used maids = 860 + 370 + 250
= 1480
Number of families not using any maids = 1500 – 1480
= 20

(i) Let E₁ be the event of getting families use both types of maids
n(E₁) = 250
p(E₁) = \(\frac{n(E_{1})}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{250}{1500}\)
= \(\frac{25}{150}\)
= \(\frac{1}{6}\)
Probability of getting both types of maids = \(\frac{1}{6}\)

(ii) Let E₂ be the event of getting families use part time maids
n(E₂) = 860
p(E₂) = \(\frac{n(E_{2})}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{860}{1500}\)
= \(\frac{43}{75}\)
Probability of getting part time maids = \(\frac{43}{75}\)

(iii) Let E₃ be the event of getting family use no maids
n(E₃) = 20
p(E₃) = \(\frac{n(E_{3})}{n(S)}\)
= \(\frac{20}{1500}\)
= \(\frac{2}{150}\)
= \(\frac{1}{75}\)
Probability of getting no maids = \(\frac{1}{75}\)
