chairs are to be placed in concentric circular arrangement in such a way that each
succeeding circular row has 10 seats more than the previous one.

Use the above information to answer the questions that follow:

(ii) For 1500 seats in the auditorium, how many rows need to be there?
1
OR

If 1500 seats are to be arranged in the auditorium, how many seats are still left to be put
after 10th row? 2
(iii) If there were 17 rows in the auditorium, how many seats will be there in the middle 1

space in the form of a square PQRS inside the field for growing wheat and the remaining for
growing vegetables (as shown in the figure). In the field, there is a pole marked as 0.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

38 One evening, Kaushik was in a park. Children were playing cricket. Birds were singing on a
nearby tree of height 80 m. He observed a bird on the tree at an angle of elevation of 45°.

When a sixer was hit, a ball flew through the tree frightening the bird to fly away. In 2
seconds, he observed the bird flying at the same height at an angle of elevation of 30° and
the ball flying towards him at the same height at an angle of elevation of 60°.

(i) At what distance from the foot of the tree was he observing the bird sitting on the tree? 1

(ii) How far did the bird fly in the mentioned time?
OR
After hitting the tree, how far did the ball travel in the sky when Kaushik saw the ball?

(iii) What is the speed of the bird in m/min if it had flown 20(√3+1) m? 2
