Nikhil is reading in class IX in government school. Once he was at his home and was doing his geometry
homework. He was trying to measure three angles of triangle using the protractor, but the protractor
was old and its numbers were erased and the lines on it were not clear.
Let us help Nikhil to find the angles of the triangle.
He found that the second angle of the triangle was three times as large as the first . the measure of the
third angle is double of the first angle.
Now answer the following questions.
41. What was the value of the first angle?
a) 300 b) 450 c) 600 d) 900
45. What was the sum of all the three angles measured by Nikhil?
a) 900 b) 1000 c) 1800 d) 3600

UFO’s are any unexplained moving objects observed in the sky, especially one assumed by some
observers to be extra terrestrial.
Ravi a student, has an interest in space science. So he makes a shape of UFO which is shown in the
figure. In this figure ABCD is a rectangle in which AB is 8cm and BC is 6cm. Equilateral triangles APB ,
BCQ, CDR and ADS are described on its sides.
Answer the following questions .
46. Find the area ( in cm2) of rectangle ABCD
a) 12 b) 32 c) 36 d) 48
50. Write the formula used to find the area of the triangle.
