Instructions: 1. Read the whole question paper and understand every question thoroughly,
without writing anything. 15 minutes of time is allotted for this.

2. Answer all the questions.

3. Write answers to the objective type questions on answer sheet, but at same
place.

I. Answer to all the following questions. Each question carries 1 mark. 7×1 = 7

(1) If in a ∆ABC, ∠A = 90° , AB = 5 cm and AC = 12 cm. If AD ⊥ BC , then find AD.

(2) Two equal circles touch each other externally at C and AB is a common tangent to the circles. Then find
∠ACB
