MATHS PAPER
Class 08 - Mathematics
1. A polygon having all sides of equal length and the interior angles of equal size is known as
a regular polygon.
The name of the regular polygon is equilateral triangle.
2. A polygon having all sides of equal length and the interior angles of equal size is known as
a regular polygon.
The name of the regular polygon of 4 sides is square.
3. A polygon having all sides of equal length and the interior angles of equal size is known as
a regular polygon.
The name of the regular polygon is regular hexagon.
4. x + 125° + 125° = 360°[∵ The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of any polygon is
360°.]
∴ x+ 250° = 360°
∴ x = 360° – 250°
∴ x = 110°
5. The sum of the measures of the exterior angles of any polygon is 360o.
So, x + 70o + 60o + 90o + 90o = 360o
⇒ x + 310o = 360o
⇒ x = 360o - 310o
⇒ x = 50o
6. 9 sides
360∘
Size of each exterior angle = 9
= 40∘
7. n = 15
Size of each exterior angle of a regular polygon = 360
n
360 o
= 15 = 24
8. Let the number of sides be n, Then, n(24°) = 360°.
360∘
⇒n= 24∘
= 15
Hence, the number of sides is 15.
9. ∵ Each interior angle = 165°
∴ Each exterior angle = 180° – 165° = 15°
Let the number of sides be n. Then,
n(15°) = 360°
360∘
⇒n= 15∘
= 24∘
Hence, the number of sides is 24.
10. The equilateral triangle being a regular polygon of 3 sides has the least measure of an
interior angle = 60°.[ Sum of all angles of a triangle/ No. of sides = 1800 / 3 = 600]
11. AD = BC [Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.]
12. ∠ DCB = ∠ DAB [because the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal]
13. OC = OA [∵ Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other]
14. Let the two adjacent angles of a parallelogram be x° each.
Then, x° + x° = 180° (∵ Sum of the two adjacent angles of a parallelogram is 180°)
⇒ 2x° = 180°
∘
⇒ x∘ = 180
2
⇒ x° = 90°.
Since, the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure, therefore the measure
of each of the angles of the parallelogram is 90°.
15. x = 180°– 70° = 110° [ Opposite angles are equal; Sum of angles on a straight line= 180°]
y = 40° [ Vertically opposite angles are equal]
40° + z + x = 180° [ Angle Sum Property]
⇒ 40° + z +110° = 180°
⇒ z + 150° = 180°
⇒ z = 180°– 150°
⇒ z = 30°.

16. Risk is a parallelogram


∴ ∠ RIS = ∠ RKS = 120°
Also, ∠ RIS + ∠ ISK = 180°
⇒ 120° + ∠ ISK = 180°
⇒ ∠ ISK = 180°– 120°
⇒ ∠ ISK = 60°
∵ CLUE is a parallelogram
∴ ∠ CES = ∠ CLU = 70°
In triangle EST,
x° + ∠ TSE + ∠ TES = 180° [By angle sum property of a triangle]
⇒ x° + ∠ ISK + ∠ CES = 180°
⇒ x° + 60° + 70° = 180° [From (1) and (2)]
⇒ x° + 130° = 180°
⇒ x° = 180°– 130° = 50°
⇒ x = 50°
17. x = 90° [Vertically opposite angles]
x + y + 30° = 180° [ Sum of angles of a triangle is equal to 180o]
⇒ 90° + y + 30° = 180°
⇒ 120° + y = 180°
⇒ y = 180° – 120° = 60°
y = z = 60° [Vertically opposite angles]

Construction : Produce BO to D such that BO = OD. Join AD and CD.


¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Proof : AD ∥ ¯BC
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
: AB ∥ ¯DC
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
.
So in parallelogram ABCD, the mid point of the diagonal ¯AC
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
is O. Hence, O is equidistant
from A, B and C.
19. For Figure RUNS
Since the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, therefore
x + y = 16 ......(1)
and, y + 7 = 20 ......(2)
From (2),
y = 20 - 7 = 13
Putting y = 13 in (1), we get
x + 13 = 16
⇒ x = 16 - 13 = 3.
20. ∵ ∠KLM + ∠NML = 80° + 100° = 180° [As the angles are collinear, so the sides are parallel]
∴ KL ∥ NM
∴ Figure KLMN is a trapezium.
21. i. Method :
∵ SP∥RQ
∴ m∠ P + m∠ Q = 180°
⇒ m∠ P + 130° = 180°
m∠ P = 180° - 130°
m∠ P = 50°
m∠ R = 90°
ii. Method :
m∠ R = 90°
m∠ S = 90°
m∠ Q = 130°
By angle sum property of a quadrilateral.
m∠ P + m∠ Q + m∠ R + m∠ S = 360°
⇒ m∠ P + 130° + 90° + 90° = 360°
⇒ m∠ P + 310° = 360°
⇒ m∠ P = 360° - 310°
⇒ m∠ P = 50°.
