its side is:
(A) 30 cm (B) 15 cm (C) 33 cm (D) 14 cm
Sol. (C)
Circumference of circle = Perimeter of the square.
So, 2r = 4a
22
 4a = 2 × × 21

 4a = 132
 a = 33
Hence, the length of each side of square is 33 cm.

But Reason does not explain the Assertion.
20. Statement (Assertion): The number 6n, n being a natural number, ends with the digit 5. [1]
Statement (Reason): The number 9n cannot end with digit 0 for any natural number n.
Choose the correct option as:
(A) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of
assertion (A).
(B) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is not the correct
explanation of assertion (A).
(C) Assertion (A) is true, but reason (R) is false.
(D) Assertion (A) is false, but reason (R) is true.
Sol. (D)
Number = 6n = (2 × 3)n
as it doesn’t have 5 as the factor, it cannot end, with digit 5.
Similarly, Number = 9n = (3 × 3)n
as it doesn’t have 5 as the factor, it cannot end, with digit 5.
Assertion (A) is false, but reason (R) is true.

22. If 217x + 131y = 913 and 131x + 217y = 827, then find the value of x and y. [2]
Sol. Adding the two equations and dividing by 348, we get : x + y = 5
Subtracting the two equations and dividing by 86, we get : x – y = 1
Solving these two new equations, we get, x = 3 and y = 2
23. 1 [2]
If tan (A + B) = 3 and tan (A – B) = ; 0° < (A + B)  90°; A > B, find A and B.

OR
If xsin θ + ycos θ = sin θcos θ and xsin θ = ycos θ then find x2 + y2.

Sol. tan(A + B) = 3 = tan 60°

 A + B = 60° ….. (i)
1
tan(A – B) = = tan 30°
3
 A – B = 30° …… (ii)
Adding equation (i) and (ii), we get
2A = 90°  A = 45°
Putting the value of A in equation (i), we get
45° + B = 60°
 B = 60° – 45°  B = 15° 
OR
We have, xsin3 + ycos3 = sin  cos 
(xsin ) sin2 + (ycos ) cos2 = sin  cos 
 xsin (sin2) + (ycos )cos2 = sin cos 
 xsin (sin2 + cos2) = sin cos  [substituting xsin θ = ycos θ]

8
  xsin  = sin  cos   x = cos 
Now, xsin  = ycos   cos sin  = ycos   y = sin 
Hence, x2 + y2 = cos2 + sin2 = 1
24. The radii of two circles are 8 cm and 6 cm respectively. Find the diameter of the circle [2]
having area equal to the sum of the areas of the two circles.
Sol. Area of the circle = Area of first circle + Area of second circle
R2 = (r1)2 + (r2)2
R2 = (8)2 + (6)2
R2 = 64 + 36
R2 = 100
R2 = 100
 R = 10.
Thus, diameter of the circle = 2R = 20 cm.
25. Using distance formula, show that the points A(1, –1), B(5, 2) and C(9, 5) are collinear. [2]
Sol. Given points are A(1, –1), B(5, 2) and C(9, 5)
AB = (5  1) 2  (2  1) 2  (4) 2  (3) 2  25 = 5 units
BC = (9  5) 2  (5  2) 2  (4) 2  (3) 2  25 = 5 units
AC = (9  1) 2  (5  1) 2  (8) 2  (6) 2  100 = 10 units
Then, AC = AB + BC = 10 units
Hence, the points A, B and C are collinear.
SECTION-C
(Section C consists of 6 questions of 3 marks each)
26. Given that 5 is irrational, prove that 2 + 3 5 is irrational. [3]
Sol. p
Let us assume 2 + 3 5 is rational, then it must be in the form of where p and q are co-
q
prime integers and q  0
p
i.e. 2 + 3 5 
q
p  2q
So 5  …….(i)
3q
Since, p, q, 5 and 2 are integers and q  0,
RHS of equation (i) is rational.
But, LHS of (i) is 5 which is irrational. This is not possible.
This contradiction has arisen due to our incorrect assumption that 2 + 3 5 is rational.
So, 2 + 3 5 is irrational.
27. Determine the number of real roots of the equation: (x2 + 1)2 – x2 = 0 [3]
Sol. (x2 + 1)2 – x2 = 0
x4 + 2x2 + 1 – x2 = 0
x4 + x 2 + 1 = 0
Put t = x2. Then
t2 + t + 1 = 0
Comparing this equation with ax2 + bx + c = 0, we get
9
 a = 1, b = 1, c = 1
So, D = b2 – 4ac = 1 – 4 = –3 < 0
Which shows that given equation has no real roots.
28. Prove that the lengths of the tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal. [3]
OR
O is a point inside a triangle ABC. The bisectors of AOB, BOC, and COA meet the
sides AB, BC and CA at point D, E and F respectively, show that AD × BE × CF = DB ×
EC × FA
Sol. The lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
Given: Let circle be with centre O and P be a point outside circle PQ and PR are two
tangents to circle intersecting at point Q and R respectively.
Q

P O

R
To prove: Length of tangents are equal
i.e. PQ = PR
Construction: Join OQ, OR and OP
Proof: As PQ is a tangent
OQ  PQ
So, OQP = 90°
Hence OQP is right triangle
Similarly,
PR is a tangent
& OR  PR
So, ORP = 90°

Hence ORP is right triangle

Using Pythagoras theorem
(Hypotenuse)2 = (Height)2 + (Base)2
In right angled triangle OQP
OP2 = PQ2 + OQ2
OP2 – OQ2 = PQ2
PQ2 = OP2 – OQ2 …….(1)
OP = PR + OR
2 2 2

OP2 = PR2 + OQ2 (As OQ = OR both radius)

OP2 – OQ2= PR2
PR2 = OP2 – OQ2 …….(2)

 From (1) and (2)
PQ2 = PR2
PQ = PR Hence proved

30. The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9. Also 9 times this number is twice the [3]
number obtained by reversing the order of the digits. Find the number.
OR
Yash scored 40 marks in a test, getting 3 marks for each right answer and losing 1 mark
11
 for each wrong answer. Had 4 marks been awarded for each correct answer and 2 marks
been deducted for each incorrect answer, then Yash would have scored 50 marks. How
many questions were there in the test?
Sol. Let, the tens digits and unit digit of the number be x and y respectively. Then, the number
will be 10x + y
Number after reversing the digits is 10y + x
According to the question, we have
x+y=9 ... (i)
9(10x + y) = 2(10y + x)
 88x – 11y = 0  8x – y = 0 ... (ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get
9x = 9  x = 1
Putting the value in equation (i), we get y = 8
Hence, the number is 18.
OR
Let, x be the number of right answers and y be the number of wrong answers.
According to the question, we have
3x – y = 40 ….(i)
and, 2x – y = 25 ….(ii)
On subtraction, we get: x = 15
putting the value of x in eq. (i), we get
3(15) – y = 40  y = 5
Number of right answers= 15 answers
Number of wrong answers = 5 answers.
Total Number of questions = 5 + 15 = 20

In a flight of 600 km, an aircraft was slowed down due to bad weather. Its average speed
for the trip was reduced by 200 km/hr from its usual speed and the time of the flight
increased by 30 min. Find the scheduled duration of the flight.
Sol. Let, time taken by faster pipe to fill the cistern be x hrs.
Therefore, time taken by slower pipe to fill the cistern = (x + 3) hrs
Since, the faster pipe takes x minutes to fill the cistern.

 13x(x – 5) + 24(x – 5) = 0

Jayant only has three Rs. 1 coins. Find the probability that the machine accept all these
coins. Also find the probability that the machine will not accept a particular Rs. 1 coin.
Sol. (i) P(He will not get ticket) = 1 – 0.729 = 0.271

(ii) P(getting a ticket) = 0.9 × 0.8 = 0.72
