Solution

Section A
1.
(c) 0
Explanation: Every point on the x-axis is of the form (a, 0). This means abscissa can be any real number but ordinate is always
0.
2.
(b) 18750 m2
Explanation: a = 325 m, b = 300 m, c = 125 m
a+b+c 325+300+125
s= 2
=
2
= 375 m
s - a = 50 m, s - b = 75 m , s - c = 250 m
Area = √s(s − a)(s − b)(s − c)

3.
(b) 55 o

Explanation:

Join OA.
Now, in triangle AOB, from angle sum property we can find that ∠AOB = 110 0

Now, 2∠AC B = ∠AOB = 110

2
= 55
0

4.
(c) x = 55° and y = 35°
Explanation: Given ∠AOB = 110 0

⇒∠DOC = 110
0
vertically opposite angles
△ DOC we have:
DO = OC
Now, ∠ ODC = ∠ OCD = y
now in △ODC
y + y + 110 = 180 (angle sum property of triangle)
0 0

⇒ 2y = 180 -110 =700 0 0

⇒ y= 35
0

Also, x = 90° – y
x = 90° – 35° = 55°
Hence, x = 55° and y = 35°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180 [Sum of the angles of a trianlge]
∘

∘ ∘
⇒ 50 + ∠B + ∠C = 180

.
7.
(b) (2, 3)
Explanation: We have to check (2, 3) is a solution of 2x – 3y = 12 if (2, 3) satisfy the equation then (2, 3) solution of 2x – 3y =
12
LHS = 2x - 3y
2×2-3×3
4 - 9 = -5
RHS = -5
LHS ≠ RHS
So (2, 3) is not a solution of 2x - 3y = 12

(d) 3
Explanation: The number of consecutive zeros in 23 × 34 × 54 × 7, is 3
As in the expression 23 × 34 × 54 × 7 has 23 × 53 which yields zeroes in expression.
As this would make 1000 i.e 3 zeroes will be there.
10.
(b) 80o
Explanation:
Given,
ABCD is a rectangle

Diagonals AC & BD intersect each other at P

∠ ABD = 50o
∵ diagonals of rectangle bisect each other and are equal in length
⇒ ∠ ABD = ∠ PDC [alternate angles]

⇒ ∠ PDC= ∠ PCD = 50°

In △DPC
⇒ ∠ DPC + ∠ PCD + ∠ PDC = 180o

Page 9 of 18
Lokesh sir unlimited study zone @9425184292
Lokesh sir unlimited study zone @9425184292
⇒ ∠ DPC + 50o + 50o = 180o
⇒ ∠ DPC = 180o - 100o = 80o

(c) a point
Explanation: x – 2 = 0
x = 2 is a point on the number line
13.
(d) 25°
Explanation: We know that he measure of a straight angle is 180°
(2x + 30°) + 4x = 180°
2x + 30° + 4x = 180°
6x = 180° - 30°
6x = 150°

(b) 60°
Explanation: We know that the angle at the centre of a circle is twice the angle at any point on the remaining part of the
circumference. angles ∠AOB and ∠ACB are on the same arc AB.
Thus, ∠AOB = (2 × ∠ACB) = (2 × 30°) = 60°
16.
(b) on the positive direction of x-axis
Explanation: Since value of y-ordinate is zero so, point lies on x-axis.
But value of x is +ve so it lies on +ve direction of x-axis.
17. (a) y = 0
Explanation: Since x-axis is a parallel to itself at a distance 0 from it. Let P (x,y) be any point on the x-axis. Then clearly, for
all position of P, we shall have the same ordinate 0 or, y = 0. Therefore, the equation of x-axis is y = 0.
18.
(b) 5
Explanation: (x3 - 2)(x2 - 11)
= x3(x2 - 11) - 2(x2 - 11)
= x5 - 11x3 - 2x2 + 22

Here the highest power is 5.
Therefore, the degree is 5.
19.
(c) A is true but R is false.
Explanation:
In quadrilateral ABXC, we have
AD = DX [Given]
BD = DC [Given]

So, diagonals AX and BC bisect each other but not at right angles.
Therefore, ABXC is a parallelogram.

20.
(d) A is false but R is true.

Explanation: √2 + √3 ≠ 5
– – – –
√3 + √2 = 1.732 + 1.414 = 3.146 ≠ √5 as √5 = 2.236
Section B
21. One
It is this property which makes the plane "flat." Two distinct planes intersect in at most one point because only a single line is
common to two intersecting planes.
22. AC = BD . . . . [Given] . . . (1)
AC = AB + BC . . . . [Point B lies between A and C] . . . . (2)
BD = BC + CD . . . . [Point C lies between B and D] . . . . (3)
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1), we get
AB + BC = BC + CD
⇒ AB = CD . . . . [Subtracting equals from equals]

We know that according to the factor theorem

p(a) = 0, if x - a is a factor of p(x)
–
We conclude that if (x - 1) is a factor of p(x) = kx 2
− √2x + 1 , then p(1) = 0

Draw PFQ ∥ AB ∥ CD
Now, PFQ ∥ AB and EF is the transversal.
Then,
∠AEF + ∠EF P = 180 ...(i)∘

[Angles on the same side of a transversal line are supplementary]

Also, PFQ ∥ CD.
∠P F G = ∠F GD = r [Alternate Angles]
∘

and ∠EF P = ∠EF G − ∠P F G = q − r ∘ ∘

putting the value of ∠ EFP in equation (i)

we get,
p° + q °- r° = 180° [∠ AEF = p ] ∘

OR
Since corresponding angles are equal.
∴ x = y ... (i)
We know that the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
∴ y + 55o = 180o
⇒ y = 180o - 55o = 125o
So, x = y = 125o
Since AB || CD and CD || EF.
∴ AB || EF
⇒ ∠ EAB + ∠ FEA = 180o [∵ Interior angles on the same side of the transversal EA are supplementary]

Now, a + b + c = 5
Squaring both sides, we get

(a + b + c) = 5

Reeta was studying in the class 9th C of St. Surya Public school, Mehrauli, New Delhi-110030
Once Ranjeet and his daughter Reeta were returning after attending teachers' parent meeting at Reeta's school. As the home of

Page 16 of 18

Lokesh sir unlimited study zone @9425184292
Ranjeet was close to the school so they were coming by walking.
Reeta asked her father, "Daddy how old are you?"
Ranjeet said, "Sum of ages of both of us is 55 years, After 10 years my age will be double of you.

(i) x - 2y = 10
(ii) x + y = 55 ...(i) and x - 2y = 10 ...(ii)
Subtracting (ii) from (i)
x + y - x + 2y = 55 - 10
⇒ 3y = 45

⇒ y = 15

So present age of Reeta is 15 years.

(iii)x + y = 55 ...(i) and x - 2y = 10 ...(ii)
Subtracting (ii) from (i)
x + y - x + 2y = 55 - 10
⇒ 3y = 45

⇒ y = 15

Put y = 15 in equation (i)

x + y = 55
⇒ x + 15 = 55

⇒ x = 55 − 15 = 40​​

​So Ranjeet's present age is 40 years.

OR
Let Reeta;s mother age be 'z'.
Given Reeta age : Her mother age = 7 : 5
We know that Reeta age = 15 years
Mother age 7
=
Reeta age 5

⇒ z= 7

⇒ z= 3

⇒ Here Mother age = 35 years

Hence Reeta's mother's age is 35 years​​.

A children's park is in the shape of isosceles triangle said PQR with PQ = PR, S and T are points on QR such that QT = RS.

(i) In △PQS and △PRT

PQ = PR (Given)
QS = TR (Given)
∠ PQR =∠ PRQ (corresponding angles of an isosceles △)

By SAS commence
△ PQS ≅ △PRT

(ii) △P QS ≅△P RT
⇒ PS = PT (CPCT)

So in △PST
PS = PT
It is an isosceles triangle.
(iii)Perimeter = sum of all 3 sides
PQ = PR = 6 cm
QR = 7 cm
So, P = (6 + 6 + 7) cm
= 19 cm
OR
Let ∠ Q = ∠ R = x and ∠ P = 80o
In △PQR, ∠ P + ∠ Q + ∠ R = 180o (Angle sum property of △)
80o + x + x = 180o
2x = 180o - 80
2x = 100o

x= 100

There was a circular park in Defence colony at Delhi. For fencing purpose poles A, B, C and D were installed at the
circumference of the park.
Ram tied wires From A to B, B to C and C to D, and he managed to measure the ∠ A = 100° and ∠ D = 80°
Point O in the middle of the park is the center of the circle.

(i) ABCD is cyclic quadrilateral.

A quadrilateral ABCD is called cyclic if all the four vertices of it lie on a circle.
Here all four vertices A, B, C and D lie on a circle.
(ii) We know that the sum of both pair of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180º.
∠ C + ∠ A = 1800

∠ C = 1800 - 1000 = 800

(iii)We know that

The sum of both pair of opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180º.
∠ B + ∠ D = 1800

∠ B = 1800 - 800 = 1000

OR
i. In a cyclic quadrilateral, all the four vertices of the quadrilateral lie on the circumference of the circle.
ii. The four sides of the inscribed quadrilateral are the four chords of the circle.
iii. The sum of a pair of opposite angles is 180° (supplementary). Let ∠ A, ∠ B, ∠ C, and ∠ D be the four angles of an
inscribed quadrilateral. Then, ∠ A + ∠ C = 180° and ∠ B + ∠ D = 180°.
