23 In ∆ABC, ∠ABC + ∠ACB + ∠BAC = 180° 1

⇒ 69° + 31° + ∠BAC = 180°
⇒ ∠BAC = 180° – 100° = 80°
Since, angles in the same segment are equal.
∴∠BDC = ∠BAC ⇒ ∠BDC = 80° 1

OR

Given: A circle with centre O and equal chords AB and CD are intersecting at E.
To Prove : ∠OEA = ∠OED
Construction: Draw OM ⊥ AB and ON ⊥ CD.
Join OE.
Proof: In ∆OME and ∆ONE,
OM = ON
[Equal chords are equidistant from the centre]
OE = OE [Common hypotenuse]
∠OME = ∠ONE [Each equal to 90°]
1
∴ ∆OME ≅ ∆ONE [By RHS congruence criteria]

⇒ ∠OEM = ∠OEN [C.P.C.T.]

⇒∠OEA = ∠OED

2 2
(i) The slant height, l = r + h2

=√ (242+102) m =√ ( 576+100 ) m = √676m = 26m

Thus, the required slant height of the tent is 26 m. 1
(ii) Curved surface area of the cone = πrl
∴ Area of the canvas required

 25 Let the sides of the triangle be a =18 cm, b = 10 cm and c = x cm
Since, perimeter of the triangle = 42 cm
∴ 18cm + 10 cm + xcm = 42
x = [42 – (18 + 10)cm = 14cm
Now, semi-perimeter = s = 42/2cm = 21 cm 1

Thus, the required area of the triangle = 21 √11cm2

27 (a) We have, p(x) x3 + 3x2 + 3x + 1 and g(x) = x + 2 ½

Since, p(2) = 2(2)2 + k(2) + 6√2 ½

29 (i) In ∆ ABD and ∆ BAC,

AD = BC (Given)
∠DAB = ∠CBA (Given)
AB = AB (Common) 2
∴ ∆ ABD ≅ ∆BAC (By SAS congruence)

(ii) Since ∆ABD ≅ ∆BAC

⇒ BD = AC and ∠ABD = ∠BAC [By C.P.C.T.] ½ +½

Or

(i) In ∆ABE and ∆ACF

∠AEB = ∠AFC [Each 90° as BE ⊥ AC and CF ⊥ AB]
∠A = ∠A [Common]
2
BE = CF [Given]
∴ ∆ABE ≅ ∆ACF [By AAS congruency]

(ii) Since ∆ABE ≅ ∆ACF

⇒ AB = AC and [By C.P.C.T.] So ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle.
½ +½

30 Let the given line AB is having two mid points ‘C’ and ‘D’.
1

AC =( 1 /2 )AB ……(i)
and AD = (1/2 ) AB ……(ii) 1
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we have
AD – AC =( 1/2 ) AB−(1/2 ) AB
or AD – AC = 0 or CD = 0
∴ C and D coincide. 1
Thus, every line segment has one and only one mid-point.

31

 As D and E are mid-points of sides AB and BC of the triangle ABC. 1

DE || AC (mid point theorem ) .Similarly, DF || BC and EF || AB

Therefore ADEF, BDFE and DFCE are all parallelograms. Now DE is a diagonal of 1
the parallelogram BDFE, therefore, Δ BDE ≅ Δ FED.

Similarly Δ DAF ≅ Δ FED and Δ EFC ≅ Δ FED So, all the four triangles are 1
congruent.

(a)Let a – b = x, b – c = y and c – a = z so that
x + y + z = 0 ⇒ x3 + y3 + z 3 = 3xyz
⇒ (a – b)3 + (b – c)3 + (c – a)3 = 3(a – b) (b – c) (c – a) 1

(b) ) We have, x3 – 3x2 – 9x – 5 1

= x3 + x2 – 4x2 – 4x – 5x – 5 ,
= x2 (x + 1) – 4x(x + 1) – 5(x + 1)
1
= (x + 1)(x2 – 4x – 5)
= (x + 1)(x2 – 5x + x – 5)
= (x + 1)[x(x – 5) + 1(x – 5)] 1
= (x + 1)(x – 5)(x + 1)
Thus, x3 – 3x2 – 9x – 5 = (x + 1)(x – 5)(x +1)

33

Now, in ∆AOD and ∆AOB, We have

∠AOD = ∠AOB [Each 90°]

5
AO = AO [Common]
OD = OB [ ∵ O is the midpoint of BD]
So ∆AOD ≅ ∆AOB [By SAS congruency]
⇒ AD = AB [By C.P.C.T.]
1
Similarly, we have
AB = BC = CD = DA
Quadrilateral ABCD have all sides equal.
In ∆AOD and ∆COB, we have 1
AO = CO [Given]
OD = OB [Given]
∠AOD = ∠COB [Vertically opposite angles]
So, ∆AOD ≅ ∆COB [By SAS congruency]
1
∠1 = ∠2 [By C.P.C.T.]
But, they form a pair of alternate interior angles.
So AD || BC .Similarly, AB || DC
So ABCD is a parallelogram.
Parallelogram having all its sides equal is a rhombus. 1
So ABCD is a rhombus.
Now, in ∆ABC and ∆BAD, we have
AC = BD [Given]
BC = AD [Proved]
AB = BA [Common]
So ∆ABC ≅ ∆BAD [By SSS congruency] 1
∠ABC = ∠BAD [By C.P.C.T.]
Since, AD || BC and AB is a transversal.
∠ABC + ∠BAD = 180° ⇒ ∠ABC = ∠BAD = 90°
So, rhombus ABCD is having one angle equal to 90°.
Thus, ABCD is a square.
OR

Let P, Q, R and S be the points of intersection of the bisectors of ∠ A and ∠ B,

∠ B and ∠ C, ∠ C and 1
∠ D, and ∠ D and ∠ A respectively of parallelogram ABCD .
In Δ ASD,since DS bisects ∠ D and AS bisects ∠ A, therefore, ∠ DAS + ∠ ADS = (1
/2) ∠ A +( 1/ 2) ∠ D = (1 /2 )(∠ A + ∠ D) =( 1/ 2) × 180° = 90°
1
Also, ∠ DAS + ∠ ADS + ∠ DSA = 180°
or 90° + ∠ DSA = 180°
or ∠ DSA = 90°
So ∠ PSR = 90° 1
Similarly, it can be shown that ∠ APB = 90° or ∠ SPQ = 90° , ∠ PQR = 90° and
∠ SRQ = 90°. 1
We have shown that ∠ PSR = ∠ PQR = 90° and ∠ SPQ = ∠ SRQ = 90°. So both 1
pairs of opposite angles are equal. Therefore, PQRS is a parallelogram in which
one angle is 90° and so, PQRS is a rectangle

 34. ( a)

Given- AB and CD are two equal chords of a circle with centre O . 1½

To prove ∠ AOB = ∠ COD.
Proof- In triangles AOB and COD
OA = OC (Radii of a circle) 1½
OB = OD (Radii of a circle)
AB = CD (Given)
Therefore, Δ AOB ≅ Δ COD (SSS congruence rule)
This gives ∠ AOB = ∠ COD (CPCT)

(b)Here AB=BC=CD=DE=EF=AF and they are equal chords of the circle . 1

So they subtend equal angles at the centre.
So ∠AOB =∠BOC =∠COD =∠DOE =∠EOF =∠AOF = 360⁰/6 = 60⁰

(c) Now AOB is an equilateral triangle. So OA = OB=AB=r

So perimeter =6r 1
