The below pictures are a few natural examples of parabolic shape which is represented by a

quadratic polynomial. A parabolic arch is an arch in the shape of a parabola. In structures, their

curve represents an efficient method of load, and so can be found in bridges and in architecture in a

variety of forms .

1.If α and 1/α are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial 2x2 – x + 8k, then k is

2.If the sum of the roots is –p and product of the roots is –1/p, then the quadratic polynomial is

Ajay’s house?

Case Study:7

A Satellite flying at height h is watching the top of the two tallest mountains in Uttarakhand and

Karnataka, them being Nanda Devi(height 7,816m) and Mullayanagiri (height 1,930 m). The angles

of depression from the satellite, to the top of Nanda Devi and Mullayanagiri are 30° and 60°

respectively. If the distance between the peaks of the two mountains is 1937 km, and the satellite is

vertically above the midpoint of the distance between the two mountains.

Page 4 of 10
1. The distance of the satellite from the top of Nanda Devi is

2. The distance of the satellite from the top of Mullayanagiri is

3. The distance of the satellite from the ground is.

4. What is the angle of elevation if a man is standing at a distance of 7816m from Nanda Devi?

5.If a milestone very far away from, makes 45o to the top of Mullayanagiri mountain. So, find the

distance of this milestone from the mountain.

CASE STUDY 8:

A Ferris wheel (or a big wheel in the United Kingdom) is an amusement ride consisting of a

rotating upright wheel with multiple passenger-carrying components (commonly referred to as

passenger cars, cabins, tubs, capsules, gondolas, or pods) attached to the rim in such a way that as

the wheel turns, they are kept upright, usually by gravity.

After taking a ride in Ferris wheel, Aarti came out from the crowd and was observing her friends

who were enjoying the ride . She was curious about the different angles and measures that the wheel

will form. She forms the figure as given below.

Adventure camps are the perfect place for the children to practice decision making for themselves

without parents and teachers guiding their every move. Some students of a school reached for

adventure at Sakleshpur. At the camp, the waiters served some students with a welcome drink in a

cylindrical glass and some students in a hemispherical cup whose dimensions are shown below.

Page 7 of 10
After that they went for a jungle trek. The jungle trek was enjoyable but tiring. As dusk fell, it was

time to take shelter. Each group of four students was given a canvas of area 551m2 . Each group

had to make a conical tent to accommodate all the four students. Assuming that all the stitching and

wasting incurred while cutting, would amount to 1m2 , the students put the tents. The radius of the

tent is 7m.
