Quadrilaterals are second most popular shape used in architectural designs. Quadrilaterals are preferred in
constructing buildings over other polygons as they can make maximum utilization of space.
Good use of geometry is visible in design of Taj. It seems that even 400 years ago lots of geometrical
planning to create bilateral symmetry was done by the architect of Taj Mahal. A geometrical sketch of Taj is
divided into rectangular grids as shown in fig-1. A careful and geometrical analysis of this sketch will help
you to appreciate the symmetry in Taj. Using properties of quadrilaterals and mid-point theorem one can

36. On her birthday party Disha wanted to distribute small cakes to each friend instead of chocolates.
The length and breadth (in cm ) and height of each piece of cake is given by the zeros of the
polynomial p(x)=x3+9x2+27x+27.

Based on the above case study answer the following questions:

(i) Find the sum of coefficient of x2 and the constant term in the given polynomial?
(ii) Name the type of polynomial (on the basis of degree) that represents each piece of the
cake.
(iii) Find the dimensions of each piece of cake.

38. Van Mahotsav or Forest Festival is an annual tree-planting festival celebrated in the month of July
in which thousands of trees are planted all over the country. Van Mahotsav week is celebrated
to spread awareness of forest conservation and to save the environment.
This year during Van Mahotsav 100 plants each were planted in 100 schools. After one month, the
number of plants that survived were recorded as :

Number of plants survived Number of schools

20 – 30 03
