Q. no-26

Let √2 be a Rational number

√2=p/q where q≠0 and p & q are co-prime ½

2=p2/q2 (squaring both sides)

2 q2= = p2-----------------(i) 1

Here p2 divisible by 2

P is also divisible by 2 -----------------(ii)

Again p =2a, where a is some integer

P2 = 4a2-----------------(iii)

2q2 = 4a2 [from eq (i) and (iii) ]

q2 = 2a2

here q2 is divisible by 2

q is also divisible by 2-----------------(iv)

Now from eq (ii) and (iv) leads to contradiction as p and q are co- prime

√2 is an irrational 1

∠𝐶 = ∠𝐶 (Common) 1

So △ 𝐴𝐵𝐶 ∼△ 𝐷𝐴𝐶 by AA similarity

𝐴𝐵 𝐵𝐶 𝐴𝐶

Q.No.32

Let x be the number of question of correct answers and y be the number of

questions of incorrect answers.

So, 3𝑥 − 𝑦 = 40, 4𝑥 − 2𝑦 = 50, 2𝑥 − 𝑦 = 25 1+1

On solving we get 𝑥 = 15 1

On solving we get 𝑦 = 5 1

Total no. of questions = 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 20 1

OR

Let 𝑥 be the length of the side of first square and y be the length of the side of
second square where 𝑥 > 𝑦 ½

A/Q 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 = 468 and 4𝑥 − 4𝑦 = 24

𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 = 468 and 𝑥 − 𝑦 = 6 1/2

Putting the values of 𝑥 in equation (1)

(𝑦 + 6)2 + 𝑦 2 = 468

⇒ 𝑦 2 + 6𝑦 − 216 = 0 1/2

⇒ 𝑦 = −18 (𝑟𝑒𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑒𝑑) or 12, so 𝑦 = 12

1+1+1

⇒ 𝑥 = 18 𝑚

Q.No.33
 1/2

Given PQ=16 cm PO = 10 cm

PQ is a chord, TP & TQ are tangents

To find out : TP = ?

Construction – Join O to Q

Proof: In ∆OPR and ∆OQR, We have

OP=OR (radii of the circle)

OR=OR (Common)

∠𝑂𝑅𝑃 = ∠𝑂𝑅𝑄 = 900

By RHS,

△ 𝑂𝑃𝑅 ∼△ 𝑂𝑄𝑅

PR=PQ=8 cm 1

In Right angled △ 𝑂𝑃𝑅

OR = √𝑂𝑃2 − 𝑃𝑅 2 = √102 − 82 = 6 𝑐𝑚 1/2

Let ∠𝑃𝑂𝑅 = 𝜃
𝑃𝑅 4
tan 𝜃 = =3 1
𝑂𝑅

We know OP⊥ 𝑇𝑃

In △ 𝑂𝑇𝑃

Tan𝜃=op/TP 1

From equation 1 & 2

OP/TP=4/3

10/TP=4/3

TP=10*3/4=15/2=7.5

TP=TQ=7.5 1
 OR

Given and XYZ are the tangents of the circle whose center is O

OB⊥ 𝐴𝐶 and OY⊥ 𝑋𝑍

Prove that : OY OR OB passes through the centre of the circle

1/2

Cunstrucion: Join OB and OY and draw OP such that OP ∥ AC

1/2

Proof: AB ∥ PO

∠𝐴𝐵𝑂 + ∠𝑃𝑂𝐵 = 1800 [Sum of adjacent interior angle]

∠𝐴𝐵𝑂 = 900 [OB⊥ 𝐴𝐶]

∠𝑃𝑂𝐵 =1800 - 900 = 900 1

Similarly ∠𝑃𝑂𝑌 =900 1

∠𝑃𝑂𝐵 + ∠𝑃𝑂𝑌 =900+900 = 1800

∠𝐵𝑂𝑌 =1800 1

Hence BOY is a straight line passes through the centre of the circle.

Q.No.34

Balloon is initially seen by girl at the point A After some time due to wind
balloon is seen by girl at point B.

GP is the girl and G is Point of observation that is eyes of the girl

Here AC=BD( i.e balloon is moving on the same height)

AC = BD = BQ-DQ = 88.2 – 1.2 = 87 1

In ∆AGC
 𝐴𝐶
tan 600 =

√3

𝐷𝐺 = 87√3

DC+CG = 87√3

DC = 87√3 − 29√3 = 58√3𝑚

Hence Balloon travels 58√3𝑚 1

Q.No.36

(i) No, because for congruency the shape and size of both the figures should be equal , which is
not the case . 1

(ii) (a) Since AB||CD , ∠A=∠D and ∠B=∠C (alternate interior angles)
Also , ∠AOB=∠COD (vertically opposite angles)
So, ∆AOB~∆DOC (By AAA similarity criteria)
Hence AAA similarity criteria is applicable. 2

OR
(b) AO/OD = 30/45 = 2/3
Since ∆AOB~∆DOC
=> Perimeter (∆AOB)/Perimeter (∆DOC) =AO/OD =2/3
(ratio of perimeter two similar triangle is equal to ratio of their corresponding sides)
Hence, the ratio is 2 : 3 2

(iii) ∵ ∆AOB ~ ∆DOC. (proved above) 1

∴ Sides should be in proportion i.e., AO/OD = OB/OC=AB/CD

Q.No.37

Golf ball = Sphere

(iii) Vol of golf = Vol of sphere - Vol of 315 hemisphere
= (4/3 π * r^ 3) - { (2/3 π *r ^ 3)× 315 }

Q.No.38

(i) The common difference between two sets of consecutive terms is

Second term - First term = 30915 - 27360 = 3555 1
Third term - Second term = 34470 - 30915 = 3555
Since the common difference is the same the average monthly velocity forms an arithmetic
progression.
(ii) The expression for the sum of average monthly velocities of the first 10 months is ⇒ S10 =
10/2 [(2 × 27360) + (10 - 1)(3555)]
S10 = 433575 1

(iii) (a) Let the spacecraft passed Braille after n months and the expression for the
average monthly velocity when it passed Borelly is
27360 + (n + 15 - 1)(3555)
= 27360 + (n - 1)(3555) + (15 × 3555)

It is given that the velocity when it passed Braille is

= 27360 + (n - 1)(3555) = 55800km / h
Simplifying the above expression the average monthly velocity of the spacecraft when it
passed Borelly is
55800 + (15 × 3555) = 109125km / h 2

OR
(b) Let the spacecraft passed Braille after n months and the expression for the average monthly
velocity when it passed Braille is
27360 + (n - 1)(3555) = 55800
= (n-1) 3555= 28440
n-1 =28440/ 3555

n-1 = 8

n= 9

Spacecraft will pass braille after 9 months. 2
