Therefore diagonals AC and BD are not equal
Since opposite sides of the given fig. are equal and both diagonals are not equal.
Therefore, the given figure (Quadrilateral) is a parallelogram.
5. (d) 40 years
Explanation: Let us assume the present age of men be x years
Also, the present age of his son be y years
According to question, after 5 years:
(x + 5) = 3 (y + 5)
x + 5 = 3y + 15
x - 3y = 10 …(i)
Also, five years ago:
(x - 5) = 7 (y - 5)
x - 5 = 7y - 35
x - 7y = - 30 …(ii)
Now, on subtracting (i) from (ii) we get:
- 4y = - 40
y = 10
Putting the value of y in (i), we get
x - 3 × 10 = 10
x - 30 = 10
x = 10 + 30
x = 40
∴ The present age of men is 40 years
6. (c) -7
Explanation: Since y-coordinate of a point is called ordinate. Its distance from the x-axis measured parallel to the y-axis
Therefore, the ordinate is -7.

7. (b) 0.6
Explanation: P(losing the game) = 1 - P (winning the game) = (1 - 0.4) = 0.6

8. (a) 2πr3
Explanation: Volume of a sphere = (4/3)πr3
Volume of a cylinder = πr2h
Given, sphere is placed inside a right circular cylinder so as to touch the top, base and lateral surface of the cylinder and
the radius of the sphere is r.
Thus, height of the cylinder = diameter = 2r and base radius = r
Volume of the cylinder = π × r2 × 2r = 2πr3

9. (d)
26
Explanation: In a deck of 52 cards, there are 12 face cards i.e. 6 red (3 hearts and 3 diamonds) and 6 black cards (3
spade and 3 clubs)
So, probability of getting a red face card = 6/52 = 3/26

10. (d) b2 - 4ac = 0
Explanation: The roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, In this formula the term b2 - 4ac is called the
discriminant. If b2 - 4ac = 0, so the equation has a single repeated root. If b2 - 4ac > 0, the equation has two real roots. If

8 / 20

b2 - 4ac < 0, the equation has two complex roots.
Hence, For D = 0, roots are real and equal (coincident).

11. (a) cubic equation
Explanation: Given: (x + 2)3 = 2x(x2 - 1)
⇒ x3 + 8 + 3 × x × 2(x + 2) = 2x3 - 2x
⇒ x3 + 8 + 6x2 + 12x = 2x3 - 2x
⇒ 2x3 - x3 - 6x2 - 12x - 2x - 8 = 0
⇒ x3 - 6x2 - 14x - 8 = 0
Here since the degree is 3, therefore, it is a cubic equation.

21. Total number of favourable outcomes = 90P robability of the event =
T otal number of possible outcomes
i. Number of two-digit numbers from 1 to 90 are 90 - 9 = 81
∴ Favourable outcomes = 81
Hence, P (getting a disc bearing a two-digit number) =

81 9
=
90 10
ii. From 1 to 90, the perfect squares are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 and 81.
Hence P (getting a perfect square) = 90

22. Step 1: By substitution method, we pick either of the equations and write one variable in terms of the other.
7x – 15y = 2 ...(1)
and x + 2y = 3 ...(2)
Let us consider the Equation (2):
x + 2y = 3 and write it as x = 3 – 2y ...(3)
Step 2: Now substitute the value of x in Equation (1)
We get 7(3 – 2y) – 15y = 2
i.e., 21 – 14y – 15y = 2
i.e., – 29y = –19
Therefore y =
19
29
Step 3: Substituting this value of y in Equation (3), we get

Let the cost of full and half first class fare be ₹ x and ₹ x/2 respectively and reservation charges be ₹ y per ticket.
Case I
The cost of one reserved first class ticket from the stations A to B

(3x + 4y) − (3x + 4y) = 7610 − 10120
- x = - 2500
x = 2500
On putting the value of x in Eq. (i), we get
2500 + y = 2530
y = 30
Hence, full first class fare from stations A to B is ₹ 2500 and the reservation for a ticket is ₹ 30.
23. The quadratic equation is given as: 4u2 + 8u
it can be written in the standard form as:

27. The given pair of linear equations is
(a - b)x + (a + b)y = a2 - 2ab - b2 ....(1)
(a + b)(x + y) = a2 + b2

12 / 20
myCBSEguide
⇒ (a + b)x + (a + b)y = a2 + b2 ....(2)
Substracting equation (2) from equation (1), we get
-2bx = -2ab - 2b2
2
−2b(a+b)
⇒ x =
−2ab−2b
−2b
=
−2b
= a + b
Substituting this value of x in equation (1), we get
(a - b)(a + b) + (a + b)y = a2 - 2ab - b2
⇒ a2 - b2 + (a + b)y = a2 - 2ab - b2
⇒ (a + b)y = -2ab
−2ab
⇒ y =
a+b

Hence, the solution of the given pair of linear equations is
−2ab
x = a + b, y = a+b

Verification : Substituting x = a + b, y = ,
−2ab
a+b
We find that both the equations (1) and (2) are satisfied as shown below:
−2ab
(a - b)x + (a + b)y = (a - b)(a + b) + (a + b)( a+b
)
= a2 - 2ab - b2
(a + b)(x + y) = (a + b){a + b − 2ab

}
a+b
= (a + b)2 - 2ab = a2 + b2
This verifies the solution.

28. Let us prove √5 irrational by contradiction.
–
Let us suppose that √5 is rational. It means that we have co-prime integers a and b (b ≠ 0)
–
Such that
a
√5 =
b
–
⇒ b √5 =a
Squaring both sides, we get
⇒ 5b 2 =a 2 ... (1)
It means that 5 is factor of a2
Hence, 5 is also factor of a by Theorem. ... (2)
If, 5 is factor of a , it means that we can write a = 5c for some integer c .
Substituting value of a in (1) ,
5b2 = 25c2
⇒ b2 =5c2
It means that 5 is factor of b2 .
Hence, 5 is also factor of b by Theorem. ... (3)
From (2) and (3) , we can say that 5 is factor of both a and b .
But, a and b are co-prime .
–
Therefore, our assumption was wrong. √5 cannot be rational. Hence, it is irrational.
OR
HCF (highest common factor) : The largest positive integer that divides given two positive integers is called the
Highest Common Factor of these positive integers.
We need to find H.C.F. of 56 and 88.
By applying Euclid’s Division lemma
88 = 56 × 1 + 32.

13 / 20
myCBSEguide
Since remainder ≠ 0, apply division lemma on 56 and remainder 32
56 = 32 × 1 + 24.
32 = 24 × 1+ 8.
24 = 8 × 3 + 0. Therefore, H.C.F. of 56 and 88 = 8

29. Given, AB = 4 cm,

Now,
Perimeter of △ABC = AB + BC + AC
= 4 + 6 + 8 = 18 cm
Thus, the perimeter of the triangle is 18 cm.

30. Given: AB =AC and AM is the bisector of ∠BAC .
To prove: AM passes through O.
Construction: Join BC. Let AM intersect BC at P.
Proof: In ΔBAP and ΔC AP
AB = AC [Given]
∠BAP = ∠C AP [Given]
And AP = BP [Common side]
∴ ΔBAP ≅ ΔC AP [By SAS congruency]
∴ ∠BP A = ∠C P A [By C.P.C.T.]
And CP = PB
But ∠BP A + ∠C P A = 180
∘
[Linear pair ∠s ]
∴ ∠BP A = ∠C P A = 90
∘
∴ AP is perpendicular bisector of the chord BC, which will pass through the centre O on being produced.
Hence, AM passes through O.

14 / 20

OR
Let APB be the tangent and take O as centre of the circle.
Let us suppose that MP⊥ AB does not pass through the centre.
Then,
∠OP A = 90
∘
[∵ Tangent is perpendicular to the radius of circle]
But ∠M P A = [Given]
90
∘
∴ ∠OP A = ∠M P A
This is only possible when point O and point M coincide with each other.
Hence, the perpendicular at the point of contact to the tangent to a circle passes through the centre of the circle.

Let the cost price of the toy be Rs. x.
Then, Gain = x%
⇒ Gain = Rs. (x × x

) = Rs. x
100
.
Therefore, S.P. = C.P. + Gain = x + .
100
But, S.P. =Rs. 24.
[Given]
x
∴ x+ = 24
100
⇒ 100x + x2 = 2400
⇒ x2 + 100x - 2400 = 0
⇒ x2 + 120x -20x -2400 = 0
⇒ x(x + 120) − 20(x + 120) = 0
⇒ (x + 120) (x - 20) = 0
⇒ x = 20, -120
⇒ x = 20 [because x > 0 ]
Hence, the cost price of the toy is Rs. 20.

Therefore, the given figure (Quadrilateral) is a parallelogram.

Explanation: Let us assume the present age of men be x years

Also, the present age of his son be y years

According to question, after 5 years:

Also, five years ago:

Now, on subtracting (i) from (ii) we get:

Putting the value of y in (i), we get

∴ The present age of men is 40 years

Therefore, the ordinate is -7.

Explanation: P(losing the game) = 1 - P (winning the game) = (1 - 0.4) = 0.6

b2 - 4ac < 0, the equation has two complex roots.

Hence, For D = 0, roots are real and equal (coincident).

Explanation: Given: (x + 2)3 = 2x(x2 - 1)

⇒ x3 + 8 + 3 × x × 2(x + 2) = 2x3 - 2x

⇒ x3 + 8 + 6x2 + 12x = 2x3 - 2x

⇒ 2x3 - x3 - 6x2 - 12x - 2x - 8 = 0

⇒ x3 - 6x2 - 14x - 8 = 0

Here since the degree is 3, therefore, it is a cubic equation.

∴ AB2 = AC2 - BC2 = 4 - 1 = 3

Explanation: Using the result,

HCF × LCM = product of two natural numbers

the other number = = 45

then (x1 = a, y1 = 0 ), ( x2 = x, y2 = y) and (x3 = 0, y3 = b)

therefore x1( y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2) = 0

= a(y - b) + x(b - 0) + 0(0 - y) = 0
