1. OBJECTIVE QUESTIONS BC = DE and AB = EF .Then

1. If two sides of a triangle are unequal then opposite

angle of larger side is
(a) greater (b) less
(c) equal (d) half (a) 3 ABC , 3 FEC (b) 3 ABD , 3 EFC
Ans : (a) greater (c) 3 ABD , 3 CMD (d) 3 ABD , 3 CEF
Ans : (a) 3 ABC , 3 FEC
2. Which of the following is a correct statement? BC = DE
(a) In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite to
equal sides are equal. BC + CD = DE + CD
(b) If the hypotenuse and an acute angle of the right- BD = EC ...(i)
angled triangle are not equal to the hypotenuse Now, AB = FE ...(ii)
and the corresponding acute angle of another
and +ABD = +FEC = 90c ...(iii)
triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
(c) The bisector of the vertical angle of an isosceles From (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
triangle bisects the base at acute angles. 3 ABC , 3 FEC [SAS congruency]
(d) All of these
6. In the given figure, PS is the median, bisecting angle
Ans : (a) In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite P , then +QPS is
to equal sides are equal.

3. Which of the following is a correct statement?

(a) Two triangles having same shape are congruent.
(b) If two sides of a triangle are equal to the
corresponding sides of another triangle, then the
two triangles are congruent. (a) 110c (b) 70c
(c) If the hypotenuse and one side of one right (c) 45c (d) 55c
triangle are equal to the hypotenuse and one side
Ans : (c) 45c
of the other triangle, then the triangles are not
congruent. Since PQ = PR
(d) None of these +Q = +R = 45c
Ans : (d) None of these Then, +P = 180c - 90c = 90c (Angle sum property)
Since PS is the median which divides +P into two
equal parts +QPS = 45c
4. If TABC , TPQR and TABC is not congruent to
TRPQ , then which of the following is not true?
(a) BC = PQ (b) AC = PR 7. In TABC , if +C > +B , then
(a) BC > AC (b) AB > AC
(c) AB = PQ (d) QR = BC
(c) AB < AC (d) BC < AC
Ans : (a) BC = PQ
Ans : (b) AB > AC
If TABC , TPQR , then their respective congruent
sides and angles will be as follows In TABC
Given, +C > +B
AB = PQ , +A = +P
BC = QR , +B = +Q
AC = PR , +C = +R
Thus, only (a) is not true.

We know that in a triangle the greater angle has the 3 DNR , 3 BMR [AAS congruency]
longer side opposite to it. By C.P.C.T., DR = BR
Thus, AB > AC
BD = 2 # 8 = 16 cm
8. In the given figure if BE = CF , then
12. Inthe figure, ABC is an isosceles triangle in which
AB = AC and LM is parallel to BC . If +A = 50c

+CFA = +BEA = 90c Ans : (c) 115c
+A is common. In 3 ABC , AB = BC
Hence, TABE , TACF [AAS Criterion] +ABC = +ACB = q
Download All PDF files from www.rava.org.in. +B = +C = q
Now,
9. Can we draw a triangle ABC with AB = 3 cm , +A + +B + +C = 180c
BC = 3.5 cm and CA = 6.5 cm ?
50c + q + q = 180c
(a) Yes (b) No
(c) Can’t be determined (d) None of these 2q = 180c - 50c = 130c
Ans : (b) No q = 65c
+B = +C = 65c
In 3 ABC , AB = 3 cm ,
LM || BC
BC = 3.5 cm , CA = 6.5 cm
+LMC + +BCM = 180c
Since AB + BC > CA
+LMC + 65c = 180c
as 3 cm + 3.5 cm = 6.5 cm = CA
3 ABC is not possible. +LMC = 180c - 65c
+LMC = 115c

Join A to D , Also, +BAD = +ABE [Given]
then, TABD , TACD [SSS Criterion] AP = PB [P is mid point of AB ]
3 APD , 3 BPE (by ASA Rule)

^PQ + QS h + ^RP + RS h > PS + PS +CAB = +DAB [Given]

PQ + ^QS + RS h + RP > 2PS AB = AB [Common]
PQ + QR + RP > 2PS 6QS + RS = QR@ Hence, TACB , TADB [SAS]

20. In triangles ABC and PQR, AB = PQ and +B = +Q . 23. In triangles ABC and 5RQP , if AB = AC, +C = +P
The two triangles will be congruent by SAS axiom if and +B = +Q , then two triangles are

Ans : (a) BC = QR (c) congruent but not isosceles
(d) neither congruent nor isosceles
Given, AB = PQ

(a) AD < BC (b) OD > OC Ans : (a) AD > CD
(c) OB < OA (d) None of these
Ans : (a) AD < BC

Since +B < +A and +C < +D ,

then BO > AO and OC > OD
[sides opposite to smaller angle is smaller]
BO + OC > AO + OD
BC > AD
We have +A = 70c and +B = 60c
Download All PDF files from www.rava.org.in. So, +C = 50c, +CAD = 120c
and +BDC = +DCB = 30c
22. In the given figure, the congruency rule used in

(c) 45c (d) 50c

Ans : (a) 55c
In 3 ABC ,
+A + +B + +C = 180c
42c + +B + +B = 180c
6AB = AC & +B = +C @
Adding (1) and (2), we get
42c + 2+B = 180c
+ABC + +ADC = +ACB + +ACD
2+B = 138c
+BCD = +ABC + +ADC
+B = 69c
+BCD + +BCD = +ABC + +ADC + +BCD
Now, +B = +C = 69c
[Adding +BCD on both sides]
But +C = +BCD + +DCA
2+BCD = 180c
69c = +BCD + 14c
+BCD = 90c
+BCD = 69c - 14c
+BCD = 55c 28. In a 3 ABC , AB = 5cm, AC = 5cm and +A = 50c,

(c) 140c (d) 160c
Ans : (a) 150c

In 3 ABM,
+MAB + +ABM + +BMA = 180c
+B = +C . let +B = +C = x
[angle sum property] In 3 ABC ,
X + 30c + 90c = 180c +A + +B + +C = 180c
X = 180c - 120c = 60c 50c + x + x = 180c
+BAC = 60c + 60c = 120c 2x = 130c
In 3 ABC ,
x = 65c
+ABC + +CAB + +ACB = 180c
+B = +C = 65c
30c + 120c + +ACB = 180c
+ACB = 180c - 150c = 30c 29. In the given figure
Now, +ACM + +ACD = 180c [linear pair]
30c + +ACD = 180c
+ACD = 180c - 30c = 150c

27. In an isosceles triangle AB = AC and BA is produced

to D , such that AB = AD then +BCD is
(a) 70c (b) 90c
(c) 60c (d) 45c
Ans : (b) 90c (a) x = 70c, y = 37c (b) x = 37c, y = 70c
Given, AB = AC and AD = AB (c) x + y = 107c (d) x - y = 57c
Now, as we know that angles opposite to equal sides Ans : (b) x = 37c, y = 70c
are equal.

Thus, +ABC = +ACB ...(1)
AB = AC [Given]

BD = CD [Given]
AD = AD [Common]

Hence, TABD , TACD +BDA = +CDA [By C.P.C.T.]

[SSS congruency criterion] y = 70c
Hence, +BAD = +CAD [CPCT] Similarly, x = 37c
x = 37c x = 37c, y = 70c
and, +BDA = +CDA [CPCT]

(a) 30c (b) 15c (d) None of these
(c) 90c (d) 60c Ans : (a) PQ + QR + RP > 2PS
Ans : (b) 15c Given : In TPQR , S is any point on the side QR .
In TPQS ,
+PRS = ^90c + 60ch = 150c
PQ + QS > PS ...(1)
RQ = PR [Since, Sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater
[Sides of equilateral triangle] than the third side]
and QR = RS [Sides of square] In TPSR

So, RP = RS PR + RS > PS ...(2)

[Since, Sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater
+RPS = +PSR = x than the third side]
In 3 PSR , After adding equation (1) and (2), we get
+PRS + +SPR + +RSP = 180c (PQ + QS) + (PR + RS) > 2PS
150c + x + x = 180c PQ + (QS + RS) + PR > 2PS
2x = 30c or PQ + QR + RP > 2PS
x = 15c

CBSE stands for Canny Books For School Education.
Reason : Area of a triangle = 1 # base # altitude.

Ans : (d) Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.

6. Assertion : In triangles ABC and PQR ,

+A = +P, +C = +R and AC = PR .
The two triangles are congruent by ASA congruence.
Reason : If two angles and included side of a triangle
are equal to the corresponding angles and side of the
other triangle then the triangles are congruent by
ASA congruence criteria.
Ans : (a) Both assertion and reason are true and
reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

+A = +P , +C = +R and AC = PR
3 ABC , 3 PQR [ASA congruence rule]

7. Assertion : When two triangles are congruent then

their corresponding angles are equal.
Reason : Two triangles are congruent if their shapes
and size are not same.
Ans : (c) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.

8. Assertion : In 3 ABC, AB = AC and +B = 50c, then

+C is 50c.
Reason : In a triangle, angles opposite to equal sides
are equal.
Ans : (a) Both assertion and reason are true and
reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

Since AB = AC ,
then +B = +C

9. Assertion : Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle

are equal.
Reason : Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle
are not equal.
Ans : (c) Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
