the digits is 14:
OR a + b = 14 ...(i)
(B) Given sin (A – B) = 0 and 2 cos (A + B) – 1 = 0 The number obtained by interchanging its digits is
When sin (A – B) = 0 10b + a and it exceeds the original number by 18:
Þ sin (A – B) = sin 0 10b + a = 10a + b + 18 ...(ii)
Þ A – B = 0 ...(i) ½ Subtract a and b from both sides of eq. (ii), we get
1 10b – b + a – a = 10a – a + b – b + 18 1
Also, cos (A + B) = ½
2 ⇒ 9b = 9a + 18
⇒ b=a+2
Þ cos (A + B) = cos 60°
Substitute b = a + 2 in eq. (i)
Þ A + B = 60° ...(ii)
a + (a + 2) = 14
On solving eqs (i) and (ii), we get
⇒ 2a + 2 = 14
A = 30° and B = 30° 1
⇒ 2a = 12

28. (A) Let the number of chocolates in lot A be x  AC = 12
and let the number of chocolates in lot B be y.
⇒ AM = 4 + x = AN  1
∴ Total number of chocolates = x + y  [Tangents from external point A]
2 Now AB = AN + NB = 10
Price of 1 chocolate of lot A = ` , so for x chocolates

⇒ 5x + 4y = 2300 …(ii) ½
Solving (i) and (ii) we get
x = 300 and y = 200 1
∴ x + y = 300 + 200 = 500
So, Anuj had 500 chocolates. ½
OR
(B) Let the ten’s and the unit’s digits in the first number
be x and y, respectively.
So, the original number = 10x + y \ PA ^ OA Þ ÐOAP = 90°
When the digits are reversed, x becomes the unit’s and PB ^ OB Þ ÐOBP = 90° 1
digit and y becomes the ten’s digit. Therefore, ÐOAP + ÐOBP = 180°
So the obtain by reversing the digits = 10y + x Hence ÐAPB + ÐAOB = 180°
According to the given condition.
 [Sum of the all the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°] 1
⇒ (10y + x) + (10x + y) = 66
⇒ 11 (x + y) = 66 sin A − 2 sin 3 A
⇒ x + y = 6 ...(i) 1
30. LHS =

We are also given that the digits differ by 2, therefore,
sin A(1 − 2 sin 2 A )
x – y = 2 ...(ii) =  1
y – x = 2 ...(iii) cos A( 2 cos2 A − 1)
If x – y = 2 then solving (i) and (ii) by elimination, we sin A[1 − 2 sin 2 A]
get x = 4 and y = 2. = 1
cos A[ 2(1 − sin 2 A ) − 1] 
In this case, we get the number 42. 1
If y – x = 2, then solving (i) and (iii) by elimination, we sin A(1 − 2 sin 2 A )
get x = 2 and y = 4. In this case, we get the number =

The height of the section from the foot of the first Angle of one sector = 30°
row to the last row \ Angle of 6 sectors = 6 × 30° = 180°
= 700 × 20 Thus, ÐXOP = 180° 1
= 14000 mm
38. (i) HCF of 345, 405 and 270
= 14 m 2 405 = 5 × 34
(iii) Since, n = 20, a = 4 and d = 1 345 = 5 × 3 × 23
\ Seating capacity of the section, 270 = 2 × 33 × 5 1
20 Therefore, HCF of 345, 405 and 240 = 15
S20 = [2 × 4 + (20 – 1) × 1]
2 Hence there were 15 students in each group. ½

= 10(8 + 19) = 23 + 27 + 18 = 68 ½
= 270 1 OR
37. (i) Complete angle of circle = 360° Factor of 1020 = 22 × 3 × 5 × 17.  1
Ferris wheel is divided into = 12 sectors From the above factorization concludes that 2n × 5 =
22 × 5
XOY is one of the sector of Ferris wheel
o
Hence the maximum possible value of n = 2  ½
\ DXOY = 360 = 30° 1 The number of topics allotted as the remaining
12 factors of 1020 = 3 × 17 = 51 ½
 (ii) LCM of 12, 10 and 15 using prime factorization
(ii) Area of sector = r 2 1
360 o  12 = 2 × 2 × 3
30 o 10 = 2 × 5
=   16 2 15 = 3 × 5
360 o
LCM = 22 × 3 × 5 = 60
= 21.33p m2 1 Hence, 60 students were selected from each branch
OR for the inter-state model making competition. 1
Area of sector OYPX (iii) The number of models submitted by each branch,
= Area of circle – Area of sector OYAX 60
Mumbai = =5
⇒ Area of sector OYPX 12
= Area of 12 sector – Area of 1 sector OYAX 60
Pune = =6
= Area of 11 sector 10
Thus, Area of sector OYAX should be multiplied by 60
Nagpur = =4 1
11 to get Area of sector OYPX. 2 15
