=π/12(72 - 3.52 ¿ = 22/7*1/12 * 10.5* 3.5=9.625 cm2.
(13)g(x)= x 2−3

By division of algorithm we have
¿- 3x3–x2+ 9x -6)¿(x2-3) (x2-3x+2)
=x2-2x-x+2=(x-2)(x-1)
Therefore, zeroes are 2,1, √ 3∧− √3 .

(14) Let, a be any positive integer & b=3.

By Euclid’s division Lemma a=3q +r and r=0,1,2,3,4
a=5q(r=0)
Squaring both sides,
a2=25q2 =5m (5q2 = m)

a= 5q+1 (r= 1)
a2= 25q2+ 10q +1
a2= 5m+1 (m= 5q2+ 2q)
a= 5q+2
a2= 25q2+ 20q +4
a2= 5m+4 (m= 5q2+ 4q)
a=5q +3
squaring both sides
a2 =25q2 + 30q +9 =5m+4 (m=5q2 +6q +1)
a=5q+4
squaring both sides
a2 = 25q2+ 40q +16 =5m+1 (m=5q2 +8q +3 )
15) Let numerator be x and denominator= y
A.T.Q.
x-1/y = 1/3 or, 3x-y-1 =0.
And x/y+8 = ¼ or, 4x – y -8= 0. Therefore, x=5 and y= 12.
So the fraction= 5/12.

16) A.T.Q.
a+ 7d= 31, a+14d=a+10d +16 Therefore, d=4 and a= 3 So, AP= 3,7,11,15…..

17) AB= √ (6−3)2 +(4−0)2 = 5

BC= √(−1−6)2+(3−4)2 = 5√ 2
AC= √(−1−3)2+(3−0)2 = 5
AB= AC, AC2 = 52+52 = 50= BC. So, ∆ ABC is a right angled isosceles triangle.
